Mars Hotel


This song is way too awesome to not be represented here in some way. This is intended to be a simplified version of Myles's Mars Hotel acoustic performance that you can find on YouTube (except for the end, which I've attempted to adapt to the studio version). Probably a little rough, but it'll get you through. Chords: C#5: x46600 B5: x24400 You should be able to handle the rest yourself. Mars Hotel E C#5 B5 A E I saw her in an empty bar C#5 The smell of wine and cheap cigars B5 A Trigger visions of her face to this day E We tried to dance for years to come C#5 But two can't lead and waltz as one B5 We loved and learned and learned to love A But it was not enough A F#m Foolish pride got in our way E C#5 She could take my heart and soul B5 She could take my hand to hold A F#m But why'd she have to take advantage of me E C#5 I tried to pay for all the things B5 She could want or ever need A Don't make me pay for all the past please E So now we're living far apart C#5 I hope to God our paths don't cross B5 A This may seem shallow..but her beauty makes me weak E I long to hold her once again C#5 And reconcile and then give in B5 A To realize that later on we made the same mistake A F#m Hold on to the lessons you've learned E C#5 She could take my heart and soul B5 She could take my hand to hold A F#m But why'd she have to take advantage of me E C#5 I tried to pay for all the things B5 She could want or ever need C#5 Don't make me pay for all the past F#m So much to tow E F#m Bogged down with all the history to hold C#5 F#m The blame fell hard on me E Apologies were too short lived F#m A She never really could forgive mistakes E C#5 B5 A F# E C#5 She could take my heart and soul B5 She could take my hand to hold A F#m But why'd she have to take advantage of me E C#5 I tried to pay for all the things B5 She could want or ever need A F#m Don't make me pay for all the past E She took my heart, she took my soul C#5 She took my fragile hand to hold B5 She took advantage all the time A F#m E I'll take her back cause her love makes me blind C#5 B5 A And there you go. Not sure about those ending chords and a few of those F#m chords may be something different, but if you play it like this it sounds fine. Enjoy!
