Guitar chords with lyrics
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Until the Ribbon Breaks - Band Name ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Stephen Funk E-mail: StephenLFunk@gmail.com The first bit of this tab is just the chords. I tabbed out a couple of the riffs at the end. The chord endings in parenthesis are optional add-ons based on what the harp is doing in the background. The "(x2)" bit in the middle indicates where the chords are to be played for twice the usual duration (four beats instead of two). I primarily used the sub bass for the chords' roots, but looked at every instrument for the complete chord.

FF
E minorEm I dreamed that I, had lost you F(maj7)
C majorC I woke up, with a tear
FF
E minorEm I think you left it on, my pillow case
DmDm The last time you were here
FF
E minorEm And we came from nowhere; we came from nothing
FF
C majorC And we could go back there, if that's what it takes
FF But I made a promise
E minorEm That I'd try to keep you
DmDm Until the ribbon breaks
DmDm Until the ribbon breaks [
A augmentedA couple of bars of eerie noises]
FF
E minorEm I wonder why, I came home
FF
C majorC More red letters, through my door
FF
E minorEm Oh but you just came from nowhere
DmDm We've been sleeping on the floor
DmDm I don't feel homesick anymore [Double time on those chords for the instrumental bridge... 2 beats per chord change]
