[Intro]
Em x2
[Verse 1]
Em F#m
I can't undo the day
C#m C
It won't go, wont go under the rug
Em F#m
I pull out the stops
C#m C
And you, you pull the plug
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Em F C F
These are soberer days
C
And I know it can't be
Em F C F
But I'll miss you the way
C
You miss the sea
[Chorus]
D D Am
Don't look down
Am D D Am
Keep staring like you've never seen the stars
Am D D Am
If you need me to remind you who you are
Am D
Little blossom there's the shiniest soul
E Em
Just behind those eyes
[Verse 2]
Em F#m
No longer my affair
C#m C
Well I can't go there just yet
Em F#m C#m
So I've come to love and trust those friends
C
That are holding your net
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Em F C F
Falling off used to mean
C
Maybe grazing a knee
Em F C F
And I'll miss you the way
C
You miss the sea
[Chorus]
D D Am
Don't look down
Am D D Am
Keep staring like you've never seen the stars
Am D D Am
If you need me to remind you who you are
Am D
Little blossom there's the shiniest soul
E Em
Just behind those eyes
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Em F C F
While I won't second guess
C
What you're thinking of me
Em F C F
I will miss you the way
C
You miss the sea.
[Chorus]
D D Am
Don't look down
Am D D Am
Keep staring like you've never seen the stars
Am D D Am
If you need me to remind you who you are
Am D
Little blossom there's the shiniest soul
E Em
Just behind those eyes

Try playing D then E before the Em at the end of the chorus. Works a treat.
+8

Good tab, but to my ears the quick F G F bit in the middle 8 part doesn't sound right. I think it's F C F.
And Hamfish is correct about the D then E at the end of the chorus.
+3

Dunno if there's a way to correct this, but the song is called "The Stops", not just "Stops"
