Give Me Back My Girl - Fiction Family

Standard Tuning
Key of B


Verse:

B
I can feel it now
I can feel my heart again
I thought I lost myself
I can feel it caving in
You can keep your venom saints
Just give me back my girl
When the city's dark
With her melancholy chords
I can feel her hollow skin
It's thin as billboards
You can win the poison race
Just give me back my girl
You can have L.A.
Just give me back my girl


PreChorus:

G#m       E
I feel it creeping in
B           F#
Breaking my heart again
G#m          E
I don't know who I've been
B              F#        G#m   E   B   F#
Feels like I'm losing it all


Chorus:

E                B
You can have Los Angeles
     F#              B        B-Emaj7-E
Just give me back my girl

Feel like I'll never be good enough
                                             B-Emaj7-E
Feel like I'll never be cool enough sometimes
Oh, i remember that was never the point!

And i don't ever want to lose you, love
                                                  B-Emaj7-E
I just want to know what shattered on the inside, yeah

G#m            E
Feels like I'm losing her

After all that we've been through

For the Verse:
During the first verse Sean kinda plucks around these chords on the electric
and Jon just plays a low B on the E string with everything else muted

In the second verse Sean has a riff with the Emaj7 and E shapes
and Jon strums the the B power chord 
then plays B-Emaj7-E at the end of every other line
Listen for it and its really easy to tell what they play :)

  B Emaj7  E
e|------------|
B|------------|
G|-8--8----9--|
D|-9--9----9--|
A|-9--7----7--|
E|-7----------|


The rest of the song is pretty much just straight-forward jamming!


Enjoy!
