Rootless

hey guys!
another marina and the diamonds – tab . this is an older song but i couldn’t find A
tab for it so i tried it myself . the verses might look a bit complicated , but they
aren’t! if you think it’s too much , you can only play A#m and G# and it will sound
good , too! it’s just , for me , there was something missing inbetween , so i tried it
with these chords . if you play the F# chord , you have got to do it just quick
before the F chord . i Am playing them all in the barre – style . but you can totally skip them!
i Am also a bit unsure about the pre – chorus .
if there’s any questions , misunderstandings , corrections or requests , feel free to contact me : )
so correect me and please rate! : )

no capo .

marina and the diamonds – rootless

A#m C# G#
i’m a cloud drifting by
( F# ) F A#m C# G#
dripping tears from the sky
( F# ) F A#m C# G#
i’m a snail without a shell
( F# ) F A#m C# G#
leopard with a golden bell

( F# ) F A#m C# G#
i’ve got nowhere to go
( F# ) F A#m C# G#
i’m a stray cat on the roam
( F# ) F A#m C# G#
choking on a chicken bone
( F# ) F A#m C# G# F# F
for a home sweet , no sweet home

F# A#m G# A#m G#
for a root , for a leaf , for a branch , for a tree
F# A#m G# F# G#
for something , somebody that reminded them of me

A#m G# F# G#
running with my roots pulled up
A#m G# F# G#
caught me cold so they could cut
A#m G# F# G#
what there was left of love
A#m G# F# G#
i’m rootless
A#m G# F# G#
i’m rootless

( F# ) F A#m C# G#
work your fingers to the bone
( F# ) F A#m C# G#
building castles out of snow
( F# ) F A#m C# G#
i’m a nomad walking on
( F# ) F A#m C# G#
humming to the same old song

( F# ) F A#m C# G#
lower case society
( F# ) F A#m C# G#
tied to no community
( F# ) F A#m C# G#
a kingdom without a king
( F# ) F A#m C# G#
with no sense of belonging

F# A#m G# A#m G#
for a root , for a leaf , for a branch , for a tree
F# A#m G# F# G#
for something , somebody that reminded them of me

A#m G# F# G#
running with my roots pulled up
A#m G# F# G#
caught me cold so they could cut
A#m G# F# G#
what there was left of love
A#m G# F# G#
i’m rootless
A#m G# F# G#
i’m rootless

A#m G# A#m G#
running with my roots pulled up
A#m G# A#m G#
so they could cut me free of love

A#m G# A#m G#
A#m G# A#m G#

A#m G# F# G#
running with my roots pulled up
A#m G# F# G#
caught me cold so they could cut
A#m G# F# G#
what there was left of love
A#m G# F# G#
i’m rootless
A#m G# F# G#
i’m rootless

A#m G# F# G#
dragging my roots through the snow
A#m G# F# G#
no home sweet and no sweet home
A#m G# F# G#
i’ve got nowhere to go
A#m G# F# G#
i’m rootless
A#m G# F# G#
i’m rootless
