               The Tide that Left and Never Came Back – The Veils

Tabbed by Slitterphiliac

This is based on insight gained from watching solo/acoustic sets by Finn on youtube.
He plays it in D with no capo, though the original recording was in E. I've transcribed 
the descending bassline in the intro/chorus, if you have a bassist handy get them to do it!
I haven't transcribed the second guitar part in the late verse/chorus/break.

Tuning: Standard, Capo 2 (all chords relative to capo)

Intro:                                                      (This part onwards is in the chorus too)
    D                     x2                         x2                   D/C#

Verse:
G                  A     F#m             G  x4
Iīm sick from this city, it burns in my side
The ships that are leaving shine so bright in the night time
Though the memory's fade it's you that I find
If only you could stay and not leave me behind

Chorus:
    D          D/C#     D/B     Dsus2/A    G              A (Same as the second half of the intro) x5
The tide that left and never came back is on my mind tonight
Cause itīs a small town and it misses you my love
The tide that left and never came back is on my mind tonight
Cause itīs a small town and it misses you my love

Verse:
Donīt fall into all those sad stories you write
Your voice is so pretty when it gets caught in the right rhyme
And though the memories fade itīs still you that I find
If only you could stay and not leave me behind

Chorus:
The tide that left and never came back is on my mind tonight
Cause it's a small town it misses you my love

Break: Bm A G A (x 4)

Chorus:
The tide that left and never came back is on my mind tonight
Cause it's a small town it misses you my love
The tide that left and never came back is on my mind tonight
Cause it's a small town it misses you my love
It's a small town and it misses you my love
It's a small dead, broken town and it misses you my love
