chords : gun – shy by grizzly bear

i can’t believe no one has done tabs for this song yet . although the guitar is barely
heard in the song in comparison to the strong vocals and synths , it is still there and the
melody is as well .

the song song sounds like it has been tuned down or up a half step not sure which , but
i’m way too lazy to find out .

play a single note while holding the chord and then strum the whole chord , palm mute ,
and then progress to the next chord . you can also get a synth like effect if you use A
delay pedal and do volume swells ( strumming with vol off on guitar and then increasing
the volume after you strum ) .

played the barred version of these chords . . . .

G#m : 4 – 6 – 6 – 4 – 4 – 4 – |
E : 0 – 2 – 2 – 1 – 0 – 0 – – – |
A : 5 – 7 – 7 – 6 – 5 – 5 – – – |
F#m : 2 – 4 – 4 – 2 – 2 – 2 – |
C#m : 4 – 4 – 6 – 6 – 5 – 4 – |

G#m F#m F#m E
the sky keeps staring at me

F#m E
frozen in my tracks
( nothing else to see )

G#m F#m F#m E
and when i move my face left
F#m E
you’re always standing there
( a shadow i can’t see )

( and the chords continue on line that till the chorus )

and even then i can’t trace
your walking away

i put my ears to the ground
always pushing down
( nothing i can hear )
i found the worst half in me
i’m cut off at the knees
( can’t even take a stand )
against your words and beliefs
i didn’t wanna freeze

* * * * * * * * chorus * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

( all of the years , leaving me here
gun – shy )
C#m G#m A
i don’t wanna say it all again
F#m E
everything you see

* * * * * * * * chorus chords go on like that * * * * * * * * * * * * *

( why ) do i always feel it all the same
this is in my eye
a guide that has only led me astray
and even as i live ( you smile )

the cold keeps tearing at me
slowing down my blood
( unable to speak )
i left my mind long ago
choosing something false
( always letting go )
and when i try to face you
you’re walking away
