Capo 3rd Fret
 
[Intro]
Bm | G | Em | A
Bm | G | Em | A
D  | G | Em | A
 
[Verse]
Bm                           A  D
Things were all good yesterday 
                                 A  G
And then the devil took your memory 
                          D      G
And if you fell to your death today, 
                                    Bm
I hope that heaven is your resting place 
Bm                                    A  D
I heard the doctors put your chest in pain
                                   A G
then that could've been the medicine
                                  A
And now you're lying in the bed again
A
Either way I'll cry with the rest of them
 
[Pre-Chorus]
G      D         Bm
And my father told me son
D
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face
G         D            Bm
And you're not the only one
            G       D            A
Although my grandma used to say, he used to sing
 
[Chorus]
Bm                      G
Darling hold me in your arms the way you did last night
Em                   A
And we'll lie inside, a little while here, oh 
Bm                     G
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up 
Em                     A
And we're wrapped in light, in life and love
Bm                       G
Put your open lips on mine, slowly let them shut
Em                   A
for they're designed to be together oh
Bm                      G
With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one
Em             A
And we'll set alight, we're afire love
 
[Instrumental]
|D   Em    G   A
 
[Verse]
Bm                           A  D
Things were all good yesterday
                                      A  G
And then the devil took your breath away
                           D G
And now we're left here in pain 
                                       Bm
Black suit black tie standing in the rain
Bm                           A D
And now my family is one again 
                                             A G
Stapled together with the strangers and a friend
                                           A
Came to my mind I should paint it with a pen 
A
Six years old I remember when 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
G      D         Bm
And my father told me son
D
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face
G         D            Bm
And you're not the only one
            G       D            A
Although my grandma used to say, he used to sing
 
[Chorus]
Bm                      G
Darling hold me in your arms the way you did last night
Em                   A
And we'll lie inside, a little while here, oh 
Bm                     G
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up 
Em                     A
And we're wrapped in light, in life and love
Bm                       G
Put your open lips on mine, slowly let them shut
Em                   A
for they're designed to be together oh
Bm                      G
With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one
Em             A
And we'll set alight, we're afire love
 
[Instrumental]
Bm   G    Em   A
 
[Bridge]
Bm                        G
My father, and all of my family 
                 Em                  A
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
       Bm                     G
And my mother, and all of my family 
                 Em                  A
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
       Bm                     G
And my brother and all of my family 
                Em                   A
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah     
       Bm                     G
And my father, and all of my family 
                Em                   A
rise from their seats to sing hallelujah

Hey, great tab in overall, just minor details, in the first half of each verse, the second G should be a Em. Also, there's a little riff played very quickly just before between the chorus and ''He used to say'' from the pre-chorus, sounds a little like this: Bm --------------------------2----------- --------------------------3---------- ---------------------2----4---------- (relative to capo) -------------0-h2-h4------4---------- --------2-h4--------------2---------- --------------------------2---------- he used to say [chorus]

Great job! Just some non-correct lycrics, like, "And my father told me so" He say "Son". But great job with chords!
