          IF I‘D FOUND THE RIGHT WORDS TO SAY
              (LIVE and ACOUSTIC)
                SNOW PATROL


NOTE: This was a request for the LIVE and ACOUSTIC version of the song that was done at
   SHEPHERD‘S BUSH EMPIRE LONDON on 5-9-2011. This version is ONLY for that performance.
          Here is the LINK: https://youtu.be/KZyJ4OJoIH8
   Please keep this in mind when playing and rating this tab.

   Also note that the acoustics in that place seem to echo and because of that at times
   I hear the A augmentedA chord as an Asus4Asus4 and even the E MajorE chord at times sounds like an E7. Try
   those as well if you feel the need to.

NOTE: ALBUM VERSION is below this tab (see below)

CAPO: 5th FRET


INTRO:
Palm mute then
A augmentedA A augmentedA E MajorE E MajorE G+G G+G D MajorD D MajorD


VERSE:
 A augmentedA
Right about now, if I`d found the right words to say
   E MajorE
I`d tell you you`re safe and take hold of your hand
     G+G
I`ll be there by your side for the rest of your life
   A augmentedA
Our bodies could fall off the end of the world

 A augmentedA
Something told me we`d be happy forever
  E MajorE
I don`t see how this could change any of that
    G+G
I will follow your ghost as it falls off the rock-face
   A augmentedA
And lie with you on the grass above

CHORUS:
     E minorEm       D MajorD
And I`d like to change all this
     E minorEm       D MajorD
And I`d like to wake up from this
  G+G    G+G
By your side


VERSE;
 A augmentedA
How did we ever survive for this length of time?
 E MajorE
Living with only a care for one thing
     G+G
But the light that shines from her
 G+G
Whenever she`s happy
   D MajorD
Is worth every minute that we`ve saved ourselves
 A augmentedA
Maybe there`s hope in just one final second
  E MajorE
A augmentedA flash of her love as she waves us goodbye
    G+G
Don`t torture yourself with what we might have given
  D MajorD
We did everything that we could ever do


CHORUS:
     E minorEm       D MajorD
And I`d like to change all this
     E minorEm       D MajorD
And I`d like to wake up from this
  G+G    G+G
By your side


CHORUS:
     E minorEm       D MajorD
And I`d like to change all this
     E minorEm       D MajorD
And I`d like to wake up from this
  G+G    G+G  A augmentedA
By your side
