C That white dress she's wearing, you haven’t seen her for a while G6 But you know, that she’s watching Em C G6 She’s laughing, she’s turning. She’s holding her tonic like a cross Em C G6 The room's suddenly spinning, as she walks up and asks how you are Em C G6 So you can smell her perfume, you can see her lying naked in your arms G6 And so there’s a change in your emotions Em C G6 When all these memories come rushing, like feral waves to your mind Em C G6 Of curl of your bodies, like two perfect circles entwined Em C G6 So you feel hopeless and homeless, and lost in the haze of the wine G6 Then she leaves with some one you don't know Em C G6 But she makes sure you saw her, she looks right at you and bolts Em C G6 As she walks out the door, your blood boiling, your stomach in ropes Em Pause!!! C Oh and when your friends say, "what is it you look like you’ve seen a ghost" Bridge (strong strumming) G6 .... C D Em .... C D G6 G6 Then you walk under the streetlights Em C G6 And you’re too drunk to notice, that everyone is staring at you Em C G6 You just don’t care what you look like, the world is falling around you Em you just have to see her C you just have to see her Em you just have to see her C you just have to see her Em you just have to see her you know that she'll break you in two.... G6 Em C *Been on this site for a long time and this is my first time tabbing here. woohooo! Anyhow, this is a beautiful song I tabbed from watching one of their acoustic concerts in youtube. The "violin" part is optional, it's not even close to the real thing, but you can definitely add your own flair to it (or omit entirely). Enjoy.
