Tuning: Standard   Capo 4th Fret


A minorAm    DmDm     G+G           C majorC  C/BC/B   A minorAm
When they came in the night, they said we'll take what we like,
A minorAm    DmDm    G+G          C majorC C/BC/B   A minorAm
I said I'd wish you well, but I've been living like hell,
A minorAm      DmDm    G+G        C majorC    C/BC/B    A minorAm
I don't have what you need, but I can tell you what I can see,
A minorAm     DmDm       G+G        C majorC  C/BC/B     A minorAm
I close my eyes and go to sleep I feel the gun press to my cheek

A minorAm
I see the ocean rolling fast I see the grass I see the grass,
A minorAm
I see it swallow up the past I see the grass I see the grass,
A minorAm
I see there hands empty at last I see the grass I see the grass,
A minorAm
and all you ask me all you ask, all you ask, all you ask,
FF
what have you got for me?

A minorAm

FF
what have you got for me?

A minorAm

  C majorC       G+G
you knew that this day was coming on.

A minorAm    DmDm    G+G           C majorC    C/BC/B   A minorAm
I woke at first daylight, the suns still shining just as bright,
A minorAm      DmDm     G+G           C majorC  C/BC/B   A minorAm
cause' yesterday when it seems, the world could end inside a dream,
A minorAm    DmDm       G+G        C majorC C/BC/B      A minorAm
I put on boots and went outside, the enemy still shooting wide,
A minorAm     DmDm     G+G         C majorC    C/BC/B    A minorAm
If they believe what I see, they wouldn't shoot so thoughtlessly.

A minorAm
I see the ocean rolling fast I see the past I see the grass,
A minorAm
I see I see their hands empty at last I see the grass I see the grass,
A minorAm
I see it swallow up the past I see the grass I see the grass,
A minorAm
and all you ask may all you ask, all you ask, all you ask,

FF
what have you got for me?

A minorAm

FF
what have you got for me?

A minorAm

C majorC                  G+G
you knew that this day was coming so why didn't you stop running,
A minorAm                   FF
your hands are not too full to get away
C majorC                  G+G
this aint gunna stop till something cures you of all you wanting,
A minorAm                    FF
until you loose what you'll not give away.

C majorC        G+G        A minorAm
Its time to make peace with this place
C majorC       G+G     A minorAm
call this the end of the race.

There are some little additions and run ups that really add to the song which i'll tab out aswell.

Going From G+G to C majorC
e|-2---------0--|
BB|-2---------1--|
G+G|-0---------0--|
D MajorD|-0---------2--|
A augmentedA|-2---0-2-3-3--|
E MajorE|-3-3-------0--|

The A minorAm after "what have you got for me"
e|-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--|
BB|-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1--|
G+G|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2--|
D MajorD|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2--|
A augmentedA|-0-0-2-2-3-3-2-0--|
E MajorE|-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--|

Also an easier way to play C/BC/B

e|-0-|
BB|-1-|
G+G|-0-|
D MajorD|-2-|
A augmentedA|-2-|
E MajorE|-0-|

There you go, the lyrics might be a bit sketchy though.

Heres another tip: If you don't have a Capo just hire someone to bar 4th with
their little finger for the whole song.
