This is an acoustical rendition of "Banner" by LIGHTS I made by ear. I don't think
it is 100% in accordance to the album version, but the vocals and chords all sound
pretty good together. Here is a youtube video of me performing if you want to hear
it: http://youtu.be/i8zY08p0GmI
 
Tuning: Standard EADGBe

Verse 1
 
G                     G
Maybe it's bricks and mortar now
C                   C
Whether or not they run it down
G               G
I don't want anything 
              C            C
To shake that shape away
G                    G
No one told us which way to come
C               C
Nobody mapped oblivion
G              G           C
So I go growing roses in a disarray
 
 
Refrain 1
 
          Cmaj7            Esus4
Just like most falling head in
       Cmaj7            Esus4
Til my ghost fills the bed in
 
 
Chorus 1
 
           Emin      C
So lift it up like a banner
        G       D
Hold it up over me
        Em           C
If this war is never ending
            D
I take this love
          G*       G*
Down with me
            C*      C*
Like a banner
 
G* G* C* C*
 
Verse 2
 
G                    G
I don't need fate to give it time
   C                    C
It doesn't take pain to change your mind
   G          G                   C        C
No weapon can sever the soul from me
 
 
Refrain 2
 
        Cmaj7             Esus4
Not the sorceress not the money
       Cmaj7              Esus4
All my cleverness all my cunning
 
 
Chorus 2
 
           Emin      C
So lift it up like a banner
        G       D
Hold it up over me
        Em           C
If this war is never ending
            D
I take this love
          G*       G*
Down with me
            C*      C*
Like a banner
 
G* G* C* C*
 
 
Bridge(2x)
 
Cmaj7          Cmaj7
It's around me in my surroundings
Esus4             Esus4
It counts me when it starts the counting
Cmaj7        Cmaj7
In the chaos there is a standard
Esus4        Esus4
I'm carrying it like a banner
 
 
 
Chorus 3 (final)
 
           (Emin)    C
So lift it up like a banner
        G       D
Hold it up over me
        Em           C
If this war is never ending
            D
I take this love
          G*
Down with me

I wrote this tab, and I don't know why, but some of the Em got changed to an Em9. They should all just be Em. I am new, and I wanted to change this, but I couldn't find an easy way to update my tab, does anyone know how?
