Florence + The Machine - Always Where I Need To Be Acoustic
===========================================================
- as performed live on KEXP Radio -
- (4/16/10) -
===========================================================
// So that's how I play it and how, in my opinion, Rob plays it - he
// sometimes adds some minor things and stuff though, but you'll get the
// idea.
// This tab is based on a youtube video, so please use it to get the
// strumming, etc.

(Florence usually starts the song and Rob joins after the first verse)
#No guitar
There's a drumming noise inside my head
That starts when you're around
I swear that you could hear it
It makes such an all mighty sound
#No guitar
There's a drumming noise inside my head
That throws me to the ground
I swear that you should hear it
It makes such an all mighty sound
#Rob joins now, playing only the upper strings constantly
CLouder (x32010@1)than sirens
AmLouder (x02210@1)than bells
CSweeter (x32010@1)than heaven
AmAnd (x02210@1)hotter than hell
# he kinda adds some little and easy "run" on the low e string here to # change to
the next chord (Em)

Em (played just like C & Am )
I ran to a tower where the church bells chime
I hoped that they would clear my mind

EmThey (022000@1)left a ringing in my ear
But that drum's still beating loud and clear

#note: during the following part Rob slowly starts to play all strings
# instead of just the upper ones

Chorus

Em (022000@1) CAs (x32010@1)I move my feet towards your body
Am (x02210@1) CI (x32010@1)can hear this beat it fills my head up
Em (022000@1) CAnd (x32010@1)gets louder and louder
Am (x02210@1) CIt (x32010@1)fills my head up and gets louder and louder
(watch the video again to figure out when he exactly changes the chords because I just
can't be bothered now )
# please watch the video, because it's really hard to write this particular # part down.
It's pretty similar to the
# one above. He first plays it alone one time (sometimes even twice). When # Florence
joins, it matches to the lyrics
beneath)

I run to the river and dive straight in
I pray that the water will drown out the din
CBut (x32010@1)as the water fills my mouth
AmIt (x02210@1)couldn't wash the echoes out
CBut (x32010@1)as the water fills my mouth
AmIt (x02210@1)couldn't wash the echoes out
CI (x32010@1)swallow the sound and it swallows me whole
AmTill (x02210@1)there's nothing left inside my soul
CAs (x32010@1)empty as that beating drum
AmBut (x02210@1)the sound has just begun

Em (022000@1) CAs (x32010@1)I move my feet towards your body
Am (x02210@1) CI (x32010@1)can hear this beat it fills my head up

- sudden break -
# Throughout the next part Rob plays the same chord progression over and over again,
adding some minor variations.
# The chords he plays at the beginning are
#
# C D Em Bm
#
# later on, he starts to add variations, playing Em* instead of Em and Bm* # instead of Bm.
# Another variation I like to play is : C D Em' Bm*
# So there a lot of ways to play it, please - once again - watch the video # to figure
out and be creative when playing.
There's a drumming noise inside my head
That starts when you're around
I swear that you could hear it
It makes such an all mighty sound
There's a drumming noise inside my head
That throws me to the ground
I swear that you should hear it
It makes such an all mighty sound
Louder than sirens, louder than bells
Sweeter than heaven, and hotter than hell
Louder than sirens, louder than bells
Sweeter than heaven, and hotter than heeeeeeeeeeeeellllllllllllllllllllll
As I move my feet towards your body
I can hear this beat it fills my head up
And gets louder and louder
It fills my head up and gets louder and louder
Ohhhhh Ohhhhhhhooo Ohhhhooooooo
Ohhooooohohohohohohohoho

End on Em
