• Song:

    Best Laid Plans

  • Artist:

    James Blunt

This is a song from the new James Blunt album "Some Kind Of Trouble".
I've figgured out the tabs from a live version on Youtube, so I'm not sure if the 
song is higher or lower on the album. I've tried to make it accurate and it rest 
should be quite perfect. Please comment for any suggestions.

 Capo on 1st.

 Verse 1:

 e                        b
 You don't like it in the shadows

 C                            G
 but you won't let me shine a light

 a                      e
 I would wash away your troubles

       a   Asus2 a7
 But it seems

 e                    b
 The more that I hold on

 C                     G
 The more that you let go

      a                              e
 And I know, you better let somebody love you

    a               ( Bsus4 ) b
 or find yourself, on your own

 Chorus:
        C          ( a7 )      G
 Tell me why all the best laid plans

       e            b
 fall apart in your hands

              C       ( a7 )  G
 And my good intentions never end,

           D  ( C ) D7
 the way I meant


 2nd Verse:
 e                          b
 If we don't talk about the future

               C                         G
 Then should I just, follow you into the dark

      a                           e      
 Yeah, and does your silence keep you cold

           a              ( Bsus4 ) b
 While the cracks form on my heart

 
 Chorus:
         C          ( a7 )     G
 Tell me why all the best laid plans

      e             b
 fall apart in your hands

             C        ( a7 )  G
 And my good intentions never end,

         D  ( C ) D7 
 the way I meant


 Bridge:
 C                                                 G
 It seems to me some fine friends have watched you turn your back

 C                                                b   D
 It seems you only want the things that you can't have.

 
 Chorus (2x) :
         C         ( a7 )      G
 Tell me why all the best laid plans

      e             b
 fall apart in your hands

             C        ( a7 )  G
 And my good intentions never end,

           D ( C ) D7
 the way I meant


 End on e.
