Tuning is as it is for Little Lion Man, the live version of I Will Wait, Sigh No More,
Awake My Soul and
Sister.

This is Winston's part tabbed out, pretty much 99% accurate I'd say. He may have a
slightly different
picking pattern but this is either dead on or damn close and giving off pretty much the
exact same
sound haha! Just play about and choose what you think sounds best.

Its hard to line up the lyrics with the tab for the timing, but I've
tried my best. Use this video as a reference if need be for timing:

And in time, as one reminds the other of a past.   A life lived much too fast to hold on to.

A broken house, another dry month waiting for the rain.   And I have been resisting this decay.

Chorus 1 (Strummed using chords at top of page, strum pattern isn't hard to figure out):


                  F    C                         F    C      G           C
But this is all I ever was...and this is all you came across those years ago.

        F      C                              F    C       G              C
Now you go too far... don't tell me that I changed because that's not the truth.

    F      C       G
And now I'm losing you...





Verse 2:



       Am                            F               C      F                C
Fragile sounds, the world outside just watches as we crawl. Crawl towards a life of

    fragile lines...     and wasted time.

And so I cry, as I hold you for the last time in this life. This life I tried so hard

Chorus 2 (Strummed):


                  F    C                         F    C      G           C
But this is all I ever was...and this is all you came across those years ago.

        F      C                              F    C       G              C
Now you go too far... don't tell me that I changed because that's not the truth.

    F      C       G
And now I'm losing you...





Bridge (Again strummed using chords at top):


                A       F         C          A        F    C
Where I used to end was where you start, you were the only one.

                   A     F        C
And now I see your eyes, move too fast.

    A        F    C
You were the only one.




Verse 3:

(Single, gentle strums)
        Am                         F                C       F               C      G/B
Careful hands, and wandering without that much to say. Your words are empty as the bed we


       Am                    F       C
    made.           Is there another way?

   Am                      F       C
Oh love,          is there another way?

C|---------------------------5------0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0--------------------|

Chorus 3 (All out strumming!):

                  F    C                         F    C      G           C
But this is all I ever was...and this is all you came across those years ago.

        F      C                              F    C       G              C
Now you go too far... don't tell me that I changed because that's not the truth.

    F      C       G        F       C      G
And now I'm losing you! And now I'm losing you!


Outro (Still all out strumming!):

A (4 beats).... F (2 beats).. C (8 beats) ........ (x4)

On the fourth and final repetition, end with a single strum of the C instead of holding
for 8 beats.

Just listen and you'll know where the chord changes come in! :)


Hope this helps, enjoy! :)
