Down in the Seine (Days of Speed version)
Paul Weller

This is a tab Chris Doyle and I worked out for the excellent ‘Down in the Seine’ found 
the acoustic ‘Days of Speed’ release.


Intro: Em7- Dm7 (x3)

Weller plays grace notes on the Em7 chord, walking down a melody on the B
string, 3rd fret, 1st, open and on Dm7 adding B string 3rd fret as transition back to 
Em7 chord.

Verse 1

Emaj7                   Dmaj7                    Emaj7                  Dmaj7
Catch me I’m falling so fast and I can’t seem to find all the reasons I had

                     Emaj7                  Dmaj7                 Emaj7 Dmaj7
when the purpose was mine, now I stumble so fast rolling into the night…

Em7                     Dm7                  Em7                       Dm7
Kiss me quick before I land and am broken in two, keep me on the right track,

                      Em7                      Dm7
hold my dreams intact too – I get lost in this place - I get lost, yes it’s

Amaj7
true…


Chorus:
                    Dmaj7                    Amaj7                      Dmaj7
And in the waters I sink and in the waters I drink, until I rise to the top,


                  Amaj7                 Dmaj7                  Amaj7
which in truth is not, it’s the same as below we will put on a show, to make

                Dmaj7				     Cmaj7 (hold for A bit)
you feel you’re alright, to make you feel there’s no fight… -


Repeat intro (x4)

Verse 2

Emaj7                  Dmaj7              Emaj7                    Dmaj7
Help me I’m sinking so fast into waters unplanned that I once held onto but

                Emaj7                       Dmaj7
have got out of hand, now the things that I loved are the things I cannot

Emaj7   Dmaj7
stand…

Em7                      Dm7                      Em7
Squeeze me slow before I come to that part of the ground, it’s a million

      Dm7                    Em7                   Dm7
miles up and a million miles down. I get lost in between and I wait to be

Amaj7
found…

Chorus:
                    Dmaj7                    Amaj7
And in the waters I sink and in the waters I drink, until I rise to the top,

                  Amaj7                 Dmaj7                  Amaj7
which in truth is not, it’s the same as below we will put on a show, to make

                                                      Cmaj7 (hold for a bit)
you feel you’re alright, to make you feel there’s no… fight -
