Chords by Brixton Parker Questions / corrections at [email protected] This whole song is played ska style (upstrokes on offbeats, muted or no downstrokes) except the bridge, which is strummed normally. He probably plays with barre chords as that's par the course for this style of music, but to make it simpler I transcribed it for , which is almost all open chords. A little hope tonight It was small but it was all I needed A split second when We both lost control It wasn’t just me It wasn’t just me When we stopped in the street and you stopped breathing Your head tilted back (strummed) Heart attack (strummed) HEART ATTACK (muted strumming)Em You closed your eyes And opened your mouth Nothing came out so I went in (stop muting and crescendo) You closed your eyes and opened your mouth We both stopped in the middle of the street Id like to think that it wasn’t just me Your head leaned back Heart attack We both stopped in the middle of the street (muted strumming)Em You closed your eyes And opened your mouth Nothing came out so I went in (stop muting and crescendo) You closed your eyes and opened your mouth (rhythmic strumming, listen to the song to get the pattern) Three months of frustration and self mutilation All burned away in the middle of the street Em (muted strumming) But later that night you brought it all back Why did I do that (stop muting and crescendo) Why did I do that Why are you afraid of me Afraid to be alone with me You know I’ll ask and then you’ll crash Now I know why you’re afraid of me (muted strumming)Em You closed your eyes And opened your mouth Nothing came out so I went in (start chopping it up) You closed your eyes and opened your mouth You closed your eyes And opened your mouth Nothing came out so I went in (stop muting and crescendo) You closed your eyes and opened your mouth
