Chords with lyrics
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Puritan by Widowspeak
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Opening track from the band's 2011 self titled debut. Couldn't make out all the lyrics,
but I tried to write down what I could. I didn't bother tabbing some of the lead solo
stuff in the middle of the song, but these chords are correct.
Tuning: Standard
NOTE: E MajorE is the only chord in the song that is played open; the rest are all barre
chords, as indicated.

E MajorE
Sometime in the written hour (?)
A augmentedA
Puritans had all the power
E MajorE
Show them how their eyes were blue
A augmentedA
Tell me I'll stay with you
B11B11 A augmentedA
Always waiting
B11B11 A augmentedA
And you're fading, fading out
E MajorE
So I looked my Sunday best
A augmentedA
Still inside a (?) dress
E MajorE
Tall, dark ... (?)
A augmentedA
Like the time they stood (?)
B11B11 A augmentedA
I was looking
B11B11 A augmentedA
Puritans watching
B11B11 A augmentedA
I, I was watching, watching out
