🎸 Chord The Maccabees - Toothpaste Kisses

hey there , i was really tired of seeing bad tabs for toothpaste kisses , because
it’s such a great song . hopefully my version is a bit better! if not , leave A
comment , if so , rate it 5 star so people can use it .

please note that the D and E chords in the intro are the bar chord , which you can
get from playing A a major shape , with the bar on the fifth ( D ) and 7th ( E ) fret .

intro : G , Cm , G , Cm , D , G , F#m , Bm , E

you’ll have to listen to the intro to get the timing right , it might sound A
little wrong at the start , but this version isn’t!

A C#m
cradle me , i’ll cradle you
A C#m
i’ll win your heart , with a whit – woo
D G F#m
pulling shapes just for your eyes ,
Bm E ( let ring )
so with toothpaste kisses and lines

i’ll be yours and you’ll be

A C#m
lay with me , ill lay with you
A C#m
we’ll do the things that lovers do
D G F#m
put the stars in our eyes ,
Bm E
and with heart shaped bruises and late night kisses divine

then , there’s the solo , which you can play just for fun , because it’s easy ( it
gets played more than once , so you can go from strumming to the solo a few times
if you like :

instead of using 4h6 on the D and G string , you can 9h11 on the a and D string , if
you find it easier . but i like doing it this way .

the chords and the solo go hand in hand . he also whistles with the intro chords
before this next bit .

after the solo , there’s some more singing :

A C#m
stay with me , ill stay with you
A C#m D
doing things that lovers do
D F#m Bm
what else to do – oooooooooooooooo

repeat intro and whistle .
