Tabbed by: Brock Lucchese
Email: Bropark08@aim.com
This is what it sounds like to me. I hope this is right, if you have any questions or
somethings wrong email me or comment. Make sure you use the capo on 1, or it will sound terrible.
Tuning: Standard w/ CAPO on 1
(Intro)
Em-Bm-Em-Bm-Em-Bm-A7-Bm (<--Play chord pattern 2 times)
---Intro can also be played like this
Bm-D-Bm-D-Bm-D-Bm-D-Bm
(Verse 1 w/ Chorus)
Bm
Well I don't feel better
G D
When I'm fucking a-round
Bm
And I don't write better
G D
When I'm stuck in the ground
Bm
So don't teach me a lesson
G D
Cause I've already learned
Bm
Yeah the sun will be shining
G D
And my children will burn
Bm G D
Oh the heart beats in its cage
(Interlude)
Em-Bm-Em-Bm-Em-Bm-A7-Bm (<--Play chord pattern 2 times)
(Verse 2 w/ chorus)
Bm
I don't want what you want
G D
I don't feel what you feel
Bm
See I'm stuck in a city
G D
But I belong in a field
Bm G D
Yeah we got left, left, left, left, left, left, left,
Bm
Now it's three in the morning and
G D
You're eating alone
Bm G D
Oh the heart beats in its cage
(Bridge)
Bm E A G#
All our Friends, they're laughing at us
Bm E A G#
All of those you love you mistrust
Bm E A G#
Help Me i'm just not quite myself
Bm E A G#
Look around theres no-one else left
(Verse 3 w/ chorus)
Bm G D
I went to the concert and I fought through the crowd
Bm G D
Guess I got too excited when I thought you were around
Bm G D
Oh, he gets left, left, left, left, left, left, left
Bm G D
I'm sorry you were thinking I would steal your fire
Bm G D
Oh the heart beats in its cage
Bm G D
Yes the heart beats in its cage
Alright
Bm-D-Bm-D-Bm-D-Bm-D-Bm
Bm G D
And the heart beats in its cage.
That's it...I hope that sounds good. I think some parts are a little off, but for the
part it sounds good to me.
Intro: Cm-Cm-Em-Cm-Cm-Cm
Verse/Chorus: Cm-G#-Eb
Interlude: Cm-Cm6-Gm-Dsus4
it probably would work if you used a capo like i said. those are the same notes except instead of having to play power chords, with the capo you can use chords
i play it power chords without a capo its much easier as you can do this
