To The Winter


“To the winter” by Brett Anderson ***Use capo on the 3rd fret **Everything is based on the 3rd fret, i.e.: Em is a Gm (without capo) D is a F (without capo) C is a D# (without capo) Main verse riff (played in piano/organ): **(Notes according to capo) Em D |--------------------|------------------| |---------------0----|------------0-----| |-------------2------|----------2-------| |-----2--------------|-----0------------| |-------2------------|--0----0----------| |--0-------0---------|------------------| Em Called you on your private number Left a message on your mobile phone D Even tried the operator When I call, no one's home Em Trying just so hard to reach you Try to keep this thing alive D You are the woman I need to speak to Didn't you know there's a monster inside Chorus riff: C Em |--------------------------------------|--------------------| |---1-0------1-0------1-0------1-0-----|----------------0---| |---0---0--------0----0---0--------2---|--------------2-----| |---2-----2--------2--2-----2----------|--2---2-----2-------| |---3-----------------3----------------|--2-----2-----------| |--------------------------------------|--0-------0---------| C Em If you're gonna carry on then deep inside, i'll give my heart to the winter C Em If you leave I'll take this blade to carve your name into my ugliness Em So I went and sat in the Crystal Palace By the plastic dinosaurs D In my pocket was a piece of paper And the writing look like yours Em Starting picking thru' our conversations Kicking thru' the rotten leaves D Never realize the implication Didn't you know there's a monster in me C Em If you're gonna carry on then deep inside, i'll give my heart to the winter C Em If you leave I'll take this blade to carve your name into my ugliness C Em Summer's gone and there's no sun what have I done, I lost my love to the winter C Em Now my heart is cold and dark what have I done I've given our love away +N.B.: I'm not too sure about the piano notes in the verse...
