This is the tab to the song "December Sunlight", a song by The The off their
2000 album "NakedSelf". It's extremely simple, just 4 chords played
repeatedly. It's originally played on a baritone guitar, so it won't sound
quite the same on a normal guitar, but close enough.
Also, the interludes between verses are a guitar effect you can't exactly
reproduce, so I usually play a quick bounce off of each chord.
The chords are as follows:
C Bb Am
e---0---- e--x---- e--0----
B---1---- B--x---- B--1----
G---0---- G--3---- G--2----
D---2---- D--3---- D--2----
A---3---- A--1---- A--0----
E---x---- E--x---- E--x----
Intro: C Bb Am C
C Bb
The early morning sun lit up her room
Am C
But it wasn’t just a change in the weather
C Bb
She’d read it in her stars and now she felt it in her heart
Am C
Life was gonna start getting better
C
And there was a time when she would pray
Bb
That each teardrop that rolled down her face
Am C
Would represent a day of pain for him
C Bb
But she’s changing the way she feels
Am C
About wasting her time and tears
C Bb Am C
Cried out, cried out, cried out
C Bb Am C
Cried out, cried out, cried out
(interlude)
C Bb
And all the tricks and all the lies
Am
He tried to pull over her eyes
C
Kept running through her mind
C Bb
She looks back in disbelief
Am
In confusion and in grief
C
At what his secrecy was revealing
C
You can scream into the pillow
Bb
You can pray into the night
Am
But you can’t switch off your feelings
C
Like you’d switch out the light
C Bb
But she’s changing the way she feels
Am C
About wasting her time and tears
C Bb Am C
Cried out, cried out, cried out
C Bb Am C
Cried out, cried out, cried out
(interlude)
C Bb
And now these winter skies
Am
Turn blue and bright
C
And she feels alive
C
And wants to drink every kiss
Bb
Make up for what she’s missed
Am C
And wipe him out of her mind
C Bb
Some day he’ll have to grow up
Am
And come clean, and listen to the screams
C
Of his own conscience
C
Cry out, cry out, cry out
Bb
Cry out, cry out, cry out
Am
Cry out, cry out, cry out,
C
Cry out, cry out, cry out...
... And she’ll not hear a sound.
