Hello, this is my first tab but it sounds good to me. Enjoy.
P.S: The B/G# chord can be replaced with easier B.
NOTICE frans.vanuytv : this song is for novices by putting Capo on 6 (that is high), Transpose Button -6.
Stay Alive - José González
[Intro]
F# C# D#m
D#m C# B
[Verse 1]
F# C# D#m
There's a rhythm in rush these days
D#m C# B
Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade
F# C# D#m
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
D#m C# B
In a world gone shallow, in a world gone lean
F# C# D#m
Sometimes there's things a man cannot know
D#m C# B
Gears won't turn and the leaves won't grow
F# C# D#m
There's no place to run and no gasoline
D#m C# B
Engine won't turn and the train won't leave
D#m C# B
Engines won't turn and the train won't leave
[Chorus]
F# C# D#m B
I will stay with you tonight
C# D#m B/G#
Hold you close 'til the morning light
F# C# D#m B
In the morning watch a new day rise
C# D#m B/G#
We'll do whatever just to stay alive
C# D#m B
We'll do whatever just to stay alive
[Verse 2]
F# C# D#m
Well the way I feel is the way I write
D#m C# B
It isn't like the thoughts of the man who lies
F# C# D#m
There is a truth and it's on our side
D#m C# B
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
D#m C# B
Look into the sun as the new days rise
[Chorus]
F# C# D#m B
And I will wait for you tonight
C# D#m B/G#
You're here forever and you're by my side
F# C# D#m B
I've been waiting all my life
C# D#m B/G#
To feel your heart as it's keeping time
C# D#m B
We'll do whatever just to stay alive
[Interlude]
F# C# B (x2)
F# C# B
Dawn is coming, open your eyes (x4)
F# C# B
...
[Verse 3]
F# C# B
Look into the sun as the new days rise
F# C# D#m
There's a rhythm in rush these days
D#m C# B
Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade
F# C# D#m
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
D#m C# B
In a world gone shallow, in a world gone lean
F# C# D#m
But there is a truth and it's on our side
D#m C# B
Dawn is coming, open your eyes
F# C# B
Look into the sun as a new days rise.

I'm a noob with tabs but it looks like I can put a capo on the first fret to make it easier? Hope this is right, thanks!

Transpose -4 and put capo on 4 for less bar chords
