E5 E5 E5 E5 E5 E5 E5 (tacit)(bass enters)
E5 E5 E5 E5 E5 E5 E5 E5
E5 A5 G5 B5 E5 E5 E5 (tacit)
(tacit) E5
The years are short just as the day is long
It was me on the corner
It was only me when you were looking
A5 G5 B5 E5
Not to kneel to anyone else, get it Pete
(tacit) E5
It's been thirteen years and a couple of days
since that cab blew that light and dragged you away from us.
A5 G5 B5 E5
And I still wonder what you might think, what you might say
It's been thirteen years and a couple of days.
(tacit) A5
And now it's far too late to go
D5 G5 G/f# E5
No one ever saw the show
A5
Blame the witches blame the saints
B5
No one cares which ones are fake
E5
And we'll never need to know.
A5
It was far to soon to go
D5 G5 G/f# E5
You never get to see the show
A5
Call all the witches and the saints
B5
The ones who were real, the ones who were fake
E5
Call them and let them know
(each chord here represents two beats)
E5 E5 E5 E5 E5 E5 E5 (tacit)
(tacit) E5
Would you want to play along
Would you approve but now you're gone
A5
So I'll never know the jokes, the lengths
G5 B5 E5
To which you might go, I'll never know
(tacit) E5
It's been thirteen years and a couple of days
Knocked out of your boots and flown through the air
A5 G5 B5 E5
Ending conversations now I'll never get to hear
(tacit) A5
It was far to soon to go
D5 G5 G/f# E5
You never got to see the show
A5
Call all the witches, call the saints
B5
The ones who were real, the ones who were fake
E5
Call them and let them know
A5
And now it's far too late to go
D5 G5 G/f# E5
We've missed the parties, we've missed the shows
A5
Dancing's for witches, guilt's for saints
B5
Who cares more is a debate
E5
And I guess I'll never know
VIBES SOLO (verse progression x2)
HORN SOLO (chorus progression)
A5
Now it's far too late to go
D5 G5 G/f# E5
No one ever saw the show
A5
Blame the witches and the saints
B5
No one cares which ones are fake
E5
And we never need to know
A5
No, no it's far too soon to go
D5 G5 G/f# E5
Don't miss the parties, don't miss the shows
A5
Dance with witches, drink with saints
B5
Do you care which ones are fake
E5
If we go we'll never know

**this song sounds in the key of f minor. i have carpel tunnel syndrome and avoid
playing bar chords when i can, hence the capo.
additionally, playing this song with a capo, leads to, in my opinion, better voice
leading, and also, makes it easier to play the
chords and some of the solos simultaneously, which you can catch over at my youtube
channel. if you don't have a capo, ask
ultimate-guitar very nicely to transpose this up 1 half step.
