This song is relatively simple. To get the strumming pattern listen to the original track.
There's a bit of an ascending riff played at the beginning of each chorus progression
from the Am(bar) to the D(bar) that looks like this:
e | --5---(5)--(5)---5-- |
B | --5---(5)--(5)---7-- |
G | --5---(5)--(5)---7-- |
D | --7---(7)--(5)---7-- |
A | --7---(5)--(5)---5-- |
E | --5----7----8------- |
The notes are played on each successive down strum.
Intro: E5 - A5 x4
E5
(With) every sweet hello
B5 D5 A5
there's a bitter good bye
E5
With every happy song
B5 D5 A5
there's the one to make you cry
E5
With every traveled road
B5 D5 A5
there's a curse that wont die
E5
I know you're not the only one
B5 D(bar) Am(bar)
you're the only one with a knife
Still you sing "here's one
D(bar)
here's one for the valley
Bm(bar)
here's one for your family"
Am(bar)
there's never one for me
Still you sing "here's one
D(bar)
here's one for the tree
Bm(bar)
where your heart is buried"
Am(bar)
there's never one for me
E5 B5 D5 A5
there's never one for me
E5
Longing, the alone
B5 D5 A5
with a fall from a height
E5
And now you've come and gone
B5 D5 A5
must the whole of europe die
E5
We know that you inherit light
B5 D5 A5
but for who does it shine
E5
Oh 'cause now I've lost the right
B5 D(bar) Am(bar)
to consider you mine
Still you sing "here's one
D(bar)
here's one for the valley
Bm(bar)
here's one for your family"
Am(bar)
there's never one for me
and here I'm left to sing
D(bar)
oh you kissed so damn easy
Bm(bar)
did you show it just to tease me
Am(bar)
the sweetest treachery
D(bar)
there's never one for me
Bm(bar) Am(bar)
oh, there's never one for me
D(bar)
there's never one for me
Bm(bar) Am(bar) E5
there's never, never one for me
