Touriste WHAT ARE WE ===================== I bought this single as soon as I heard it. This is a beautifully written but relatively simple song to play (though the electric guitar part is a tad more complex). It's basically the same chords as Coldplay's "Yellow" and if I'm not mistaken, the top E is tuned down to Eb. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- B (799800) Abm (466400) F# (244300) E (022100) INTRO B Abm F# E VERSE 1 B Abm The sky was getting darker, the weather made it harder F# E To make sense of the sounds that you made B But you stopped the road from taking me Abm When you had the chance to leave it be F# E Looking into my eyes you said let's turn this all around CHORUS Abm F# Why are we still standing here E Waiting for your head to clear Abm F# Why are we still standing here E Waiting for your head to clear BRIDGE B Abm F# E VERSE 2 B Abm Would a smile take it further? I tried it felt like murder F# E To be myself is all that I can be B Cold or alone I have to choose Abm When the past is all that's keeping you F# E From sleeping by yourself without a single plan CHORUS Abm F# Why are we still standing here E Waiting for your head to clear Abm F# Why are we still standing here E Waiting for your head to clear BRIDGE B Abm F# E x2 VERSE 3 B Abm The sky was getting darker, the weather made it harder F# E To make sense of the sounds that you made B But you stopped the road from taking me Abm When you had the chance to leave it be F# E Looking into my eyes you said let's turn this all around CHORUS Abm F# Why are we still standing here E Waiting for your head to clear Abm F# Why are we still standing here E Waiting for your head to clear Abm F# What are we, I said what are we, I said E What are we, what are we Abm F# What are we, I said what are we, I said E What are we, what are we OUTRO B Abm F# E --- Andy B ---
