Suspension (acoustic)

Lights

This tab is for the acoustic version of Suspension for the amazingly talented artist Lights. I watched the video of Lights playing this song on an airplane, watched and heard what she played, and worked it out from there. There are only three different parts, the Chorus, the bridge, and verses. She usually finger picks the top and bottom notes of each chord to get that staccato sound. Capo on the first fret, all notes relative to the capo Verse and post-Chorus ("not close enough, you're not close enough") e|--------------------------------------| B|-------------(0)----------------------| G|--2---4---5---------------------------| D|--3---5---7---------------------------| A|--3---5---7---------------------------| E|--------------------------------------| Chorus e|------------------1-------------------| B|--2---------------3---3---0-----------| G|--3---0---2-------2-------0-----------| D|--3---2---3-------0-------2-----------| A|--0---3---3---------------2-----------| E|------3---1---------------0-----------| For the bridge, she adds an extra high note after the second similar chord: Bridge e|-----------------(0)---------(0)----------(0)-------| B|-----(3)----------------------------------(0)-------| G|--2---2-------4---4-------5---5-------10---10-------| D|--3---3-------5---5-------7---7-------11---11-------| A|--3---3-------5---5-------7---7-------11---11-------| E|----------------------------------------------------|
