Hello. I thought I'd have a go at one of Lewis's immense new songs from his debut album "The Morning". This is my first tab so I apologise for any errors. ****Tuning is a full step down - DGCFAD**** I've initially done the chords in the familiar standard shape so it's easier for beginners to reference. In this tuning the E technically drops to a D and the Asus2 drops to a Gsus2 but yeah you know what I mean. Chord key. E - 022100 Asus2 - X02200 - (in the verses he does a couple of strums of X02100 and X02220 live to emulate the "ooh ooooh ooh ooh" backing vocals on the record by releasing his ring finger and hammering on with his little finger, try it and you'll get it). Bm - X24432 C#m - X46654. Intro E Asus2. E Asus2 Bite my tongue, you wouldn't hear me anyway E Asus2 Hold my nerve, while I wait for the fires to fade Bm Asus2 E I'm seeing every single word you don't say but I feel like I've seen it all Bm Asus2 E How come every time you ask me to stay, you're halfway gone? Asus2 C#m If this is the easy way out, then why am I finding it hard as hell Bm Asus2 E I'm Wide awake waiting for sleep to steal my doubt Asus2 C#m And everything we had that hurts has come back to haunt us but ten times worse Bm Asus2 I'm holding on so tight it hurts E So why are we holding on? *turnaround is the same as intro, with the E from the end of the chorus followed by the Asus2* E Asus2 Close my eyes, am I slowly slipping away E Asus2 If I bide my time I'll get lost like a tear in the rain Bm Asus2 E How come every time you ask me to stay you're halfway gone? Asus2 C#m If this is the easy way out, then why am I finding it hard as hell Bm Asus2 E I'm wide awake waiting for sleep to steal my doubt Asus2 C#m And everything we had that hurts has come back to haunt us but ten times worse Bm Asus2 I'm holding on so tight it hurts E So why are we holding on? Why are we holding on? x4 Repeat chorus (last line of the song in the last chorus) E Why I can't let you go Have fun and enjoy this beaut of a song. Davey x
