Snow Patrol - Signal Fire
Tabbed by Alan.
Thanks to GlynisCorgan for help on the chorus.
I personally prefer:
e 0 0 0 0
B 2 0 0 3
G 2 1 2 2
D 2 2 4 0
A 0 2 4 x
E x 0 x x
But I've written it out for people who prefer the full chord.
The electric guitar plays:
E +-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-+
B +---------------------------------+
G +---------------------------------+
D +-7-7-7-7-4-4-4-4-2-2-2-2-0-0-0-0-+
A +---------------------------------+
E +---------------------------------+ Repeat for verse
Intro:
Verse 1
The perfect words never crossed my mind
'cause there was nothing in there but you
I felt every ounce of me screaming out
But the sound was trapped deep in me
All I wanted just sped right past me
While I was rooted fast to the earth
I could be stuck here for a thousand years
Without your arms to drag me out
Chorus
A E F#m D [Slide to xxx45x]
There you are standing right in front of me
A E F#m D [Slide to xxx45x]
There you are standing right in front of me
A E F#m D [Slide to xxx45x]
All this fear falls away to leave me naked
A E F#m D (Ring out on A [xxx2xx]
Hold me close cause I need you to guide me to safety
No, I won't wait forever
Verse 2
In the confusion and the aftermath
You are my signal fire
The only resolution and the only joy
Is the faint spark of forgiveness in your eyes
Chorus
A E F#m D [Slide to xxx45x]
There you are standing right in front of me
A E F#m D [Slide to xxx45x]
There you are standing right in front of me
A E F#m D [Slide to xxx45x]
All this fear falls away to leave me naked
Hold me close cause I need you to guide me to safety
No, I won't wait forever
