right lads this is a fantastic song but working out the chords by ear is a pain in the
parts so i’ve done my best to do all the work for you . this is my first ever tab so bear
me .
the Cadd9 used is a standard C shape but played with the 3rd fret on the high E string ( 1st )
the Cadd9 variation is exactly the same except the D string is played open instead of
second fret
the Am is standard
the Am variation is the same but the B string is played open instead of the first fret
the Em is standard
the Fadd9 is a standard F but instead of fretting the 1st fret you fret the 3rd on the
E string ( 1st )
now the G is a weird one . it’s a standard G but the B string is fretted at the 1st fret
it’s keeping the shape of the Fadd9 but the top 2 strings stay as if it were a standard G .
then its back to the Cadd9
then G again and then its straight into the verse so your chord bank should look
like this
Cadd9 ( x , 3 , 2 , 0 , 1 , 3 )
Cadd9v ( x , 3 , 0 , 0 , 1 , 3 )
Am ( 0 , 0 , 2 , 2 , 1 , 0 )
amv ( 0 , 0 , 2 , 2 , 0 , 0 )
Em ( 0 , 2 , 2 , 0 , 0 , 0 )
Fadd9 ( 0 , 0 , 3 , 2 , 1 , 3 )
G ( 3 , 2 , 0 , 0 , 1 , 3 )
F ( 1 , 3 , 3 , 2 , 1 , 1 )

Cadd9
all this talk of getting old

Em
now the drugs don’t work
Fadd9
they just make you worse
G Cadd9
but i know i’ll see your face again
now the drugs don’t work
they just make you worse
but i know i’ll see your face again
but i know i’m on a losing streak
’cause i passed down my old street
and if you wanna show , then just let me know
and i’ll sing in your ear again
now the drugs don’t work
they just make you worse
but i know i’ll see your face again
F Em Am
’cause baby , ooh , if heaven calls , i’m coming , too
F Em Am
just like you said , you leave my life , i’m better off dead
all this talk of getting old
it’s getting me down my love
like a cat in a bag , waiting to drown
this time i’m comin’ down
now the drugs don’t work
they just make you worse
but i know i’ll see your face again
’cause baby , ooh , if heaven calls , i’m coming , too
just like you said , you leave my life , i’m better off dead
but if you wanna show , just let me know
and i’ll sing in your ear again
now the drugs don’t work
they just make you worse
but i know i’ll see your face again
yeah , i know i’ll see your face again
yeah , i know i’ll see your face again
yeah , i know i’ll see your face again
yeah , i know i’ll see your face again
i’m never going down , i’m never coming down
no more , no more , no more , no more , no more
i’m never coming down , i’m never going down
no more , no more , no more , no more , no more
