"Amateurs" written and performed by Andy Davis Tabbed by Whitney Borisenok Questions/Comments: wborisen@uvm.edu Pretty basic song. This is not exactly how Andy plays it, but these chords work You can mess around with some hammer-ons to sort of get the same kind of effect on the album. :) E So this is how it feels E B Lean in to kiss the one that you love and she turns a cheek E Let me tell you how it feels E B Watching the walls of the house that you build start crumbling Abm Yeah you feel A E Love is passing by Abm One more time A F# But you’re not surprised E B Yeah, we’re all amateurs Abm C# B And heaven knows we’re not perfect E B We try to get it right Abm C# B We keep messing up but we’re learning A E B When the day is done, oohhh C# B I wanna know A How do you love someone? A (strum once) How do you really love someone? E – B E If you’re further down the road E B Put up a sign, everyone will show me which way to go E Yeah maybe you can start a fire B If your love is strong, we could just follow smoke Abm Yeah you feel A E Like you’re broken down Abm A F# Waiting ‘til the truth comes out E B Yeah, we’re all amateurs Abm C# B And heaven knows we’re not perfect E B We try to get it right Abm C# B We keep messing up but we’re learning A E B When the day is done, oohhh C# B I wanna know A How do you love someone? A (strum once) How do you really love someone?
