This is a two part song really, but since I'm after the singing bit I'm
only going to do part two, Love Lies Bleeding.
The fade out from Funeral For A Friend is just two chords repeated...
A Bbmaj7
The introduction to Love Lies Bleeding goes like this...
A C G F G
The F and the second G only get half a bar each.
[Verse 1]
A
The roses in the window box
E
Have tilted to one side
A
Everything about this house
Bm
Was born to grow and die
A Bm D
Oh it doesn't seem a year ago to this very day
A
You said I'm sorry honey
E
If I don't change the pace
D E F#m
I can't face another day
[Chorus]
Bm E
And love lies bleeding in my hand
F#m Bm E
Oh it kills me to think of you with another man
F#m Bm
I was playing rock and roll and you were just a fan
C#m
But my guitar couldn't hold you
D Dm
So I split the baaaa-a-ha-a-nd
F#m E A C G (Introduction here)
Love lies bleeding in my hands
[Verse 2]
A
I wonder if those changes
E
Have left a scar on you
C#m D
Like all the burning hoops of fire
Bm B7
That you and I passed through
A
You're a bluebird on a telegraph line
Bm D
I hope you're happy now
A E
Well if the wind of change comes down your way girl
D E F#m
You'll make it back somehow
[Chorus]
Bm E
And love lies bleeding in my hand
F#m Bm E
Oh it kills me to think of you with another man
F#m Bm
I was playing rock and roll and you were just a fan
C#m
But my guitar couldn't hold you
D Dm
So I split the baaaa-a-ha-a-nd
F#m E A C G (Introduction here)
Love lies bleeding in my hands
(About now Elton does his thing with the piano, and there's a guitar solo
but the chords are the same as for the intro)
[Chorus]
Bm E
And love lies bleeding in my hand
F#m Bm E
Oh it kills me to think of you with another man
F#m Bm
I was playing rock and roll and you were just a fan
C#m
But my guitar couldn't hold you
D Dm
So I split the baaaa-a-ha-a-nd
F#m E A C G (Introduction here)
Love lies bleeding in my hands
There's more singing over the chorus, and then a guitar solo fade with the
chord pattern from the intro.

I think the chords on "I was playing rock and roll..." shuld be A and on "Split the baaaand" should be D7. And optionally on "Everything about this house..." it should go A-C#m-Bm.
Other than that this is pretty good thanks for the tab!

lot of incorrect chords, check out the version 2, much closer.
