Your Ex-lover Is Dead Acoustic Tab by Stars ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- YOUR EX-LOVER IS DEAD - Stars ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Schiefferbrains Email: stephen.cdn@gmail.com Tuning: Standard Notes: 1) "God that was..." begins here --> * for verse 1, as does "This scar..." for verse 2. "strange..." in verse 1 falls on the C chord, as does "fleck..." for verse 2. 2) Listen for the strumming, it's consistent for most of the song, but it does change. 3) Kelly i'm not sorry I met you. I'm not sorry it's over. ###################################### [Chords used] Am E C F2 F G e|0---0---0---0---1---3---| B|1---0---1---1---1---3---| G|2---1---0---2---2---4---| D|2---2---2---3---3---5---| A|0---2---3---3---3---5---| E|x---0---0---x---1---3---| ####################################### [Intro] (said before anything is played) When there's nothing left to burn, you have to set yourself on fire.
