Tuning:DADF#AD (Open D)

To reproduce the guitar sound of 
this recording you need to be in 
Open D tuning -
and ideally using a 12 string 
guitar!
The Open D chords are easy to play 
and allow the top strings to act as 
ringing drones.

If you want to stay in Standard 
tuning - just play the chords as 
named and they will sound OK
when played along with the videos.

Here is the original full track:

[Verse 1]
        D                     G   
Well it seems she'll play the same
              D     G
 old piece to play along
           D              G       
'Cause the audience never listened
        D       G
 to her mermaid song
         A                      
That temptation was a sunny isle 
       G
where all that lives is dead
                 D       G        
Don't choose its shadows     to 
        D      G
make your bed

[Verse 2]
      D                 G   
And behind that painted lady, 
            D     G
there's a masterpiece
      D                 G         
Oh, behind that painted lady, 
    D     G
she's a masterpiece
        A                        
Oh, but she doesn't care to think 
            G
so; no she hasn't got belief
                  D       G       
That's what she's wearing    over 
    D      G
her face

[Chorus]
Singing:
D   G    A  G    D  G
Oh, take me back to me,
D   G   A   G    D  G
oh, the o - riginal me
A                   G            
Oh, take me back to me, the 
    D     G    D    G
original me

[Verse 3]
    D              G              
And when the sun descends, she'll 
       D               G
be the swan song silhouette
    D             G               
And even down the road, she'll be 
    D                  G
the last to leave your head
           A                       
And you'll feel like you're 
            G
marooned upon that sunny isle 
instead
                 D       G        
Don't choose its shadows    to 
       D       G
make your bed

[Chorus]
D   G    A  G    D  G
Oh, take me back to you,
D   G   A   G    D  G
oh, the o - riginal you
A                   G     
Oh, take me back to you, the 
            D     G
original you
D   G   D   G   D   G   A   
Doo's and Oh's
