Missy Higgins - The Sound Of White

the only version up here is rubbish adn was driving me insane so i decided to tab it
myself so that other , nearly as insane people , could use it : – )

standard tuning .

intro
G G/B Cadd9 C

v1

G G/B
like a freeze – dried rose , you will never be ,
Cadd9 C
what you were , what you were to me in memory .
G G/B
but if i listen to the dark , you’ll embrace me like a star ,
Cadd9 C
envelope me , envelope me . . .

prechorus

G G/B
if things get real for me down here ,
Cadd9
promise to take me to before you went away –

if only for a day .
G G/B
if things get real for me down here ,
Cadd9
promise to take me back to the tune we played ,
C Dsus4 D
before you went away .

chorus
G D C
and if i listen to , the sound of white ,
D G
sometimes i hear your smile , and breathe your light .
D C D
yeah if i listen to , the sound of white . .
G G/B C
you’re my mystery . one mystery . my mystery . one mystery .

v2
G
my silence solidifies ,
G/B C
until that hollow void erases you ,
Cadd9
erases you so i can’t feel at all .
G G/B
but if i never feel again , at least that nothingness
Cadd9 D
will end the painful dream , of you and me . . .

prechorus

G G/B
if things get real for me down here ,
Cadd9
promise to take me to before you went away –

i knelt before some strangers face ,
D ( B/D# )
well i’d never have the courage or belief to trust this place ,

but i dropped my head , ’cos it felt like lead ,

and i’m sure i felt your fingers through my hair . . .
