Credit to the existing tab by erwinc0215 to which I have appended the opening riff.
The acoustic/lullaby version of this is same chord shapes but played fingerstyle.
I use two fingers (index and middle) to barre the chords for cleaner sound and less fatigue.

(This riff is also played over the verses but on the D chord you play a D note (fret 5) on the A string, which
is tricky so I skip the 0h1h2 bit on the D chord.)
[Verse 1]
Am
Oh, it could be exciting
C D
Excuse for a change if we don't work the way
Am
We were
Oh, but nothing seems inviting
C D
Except the image of your open arms calling back
Am
To me
[Chorus]
F G
I take you back
Am G F G
Yeah, I know it seems surprising when there's lipstick still on the glass
Am G F G
And the full moon rising, but it's me who makes myself mad, mm
Am
I take you
[Verse 2]
Am
Oh, my body does deceive me
C
Just as did yours
D
Though we're fighting different wars
Am
In our ways
Oh, but there's no pleasure in resisting
C D Am
So go ahead and kiss me
[Chorus]
F G
I take you back
Am G F G
Yeah, I know it seems surprising when there's lipstick still on the glass
Am G F G
And the full moon rising, but it's me who makes myself mad, mm
Am
I take you
[Bridge]
F G
Once more, once more
Am C
Once more
F G
Once more, once more
Am C
Once more
F Em
Once more
Am
You know nothing would've needed deciding
G F Em
Had you just simply asked
Am G
But the full moon rising, and it's me
[Chorus]
F G
I take you back
Am G F G
Yeah, I know it seems surprising when there's lipstick still on the glass
Am G F G
And the full moon rising, but it's me who makes myself mad, mm
Am
I take you

Great tab, thanks!

Is the Am barr supposed to be 577000 or should it be 577555? I dont hear a big difference but trying to play the open strings while also barring the 5s is killing my hand haha.

Thanks a lot. It sounds like on the record he plays the verse using only A and D strings? ie. x00xxx x01xxx x02xxx x05xxx x04xxxx then the C chord is same riff but with a C bass note: x30xxx and the D chord has F# or D bass note: 2x0xxx or x50xxx. You can then strum the chorus chords which gives it emphasis and works well. Shame I cant do the singing as its too difficult for me.
