Standard (EADGBE)

The struming pattern based on the acoustic version from the live lounge is

pretty much this: D D D U D D D D U before changing to the next chord.

During the intro there's also a couple of little hammer-ons on the D string

and also on the B string forming an Asus4 chord during the Am.

Intro

Verse 1

  I still don't know what I was waiting for,

  A big love to fall down from the sky.

  She took my hand and picked me up off the floor,

  She put an apple in my eye.

Chorus 1

  I said I'm tired________,

  Come get me off the merry-go-round.

  I'm wired________,

  / (Hit once)

Come feed me and then bring-a-me down.

Verse 2

  She come up to me, can't remember what she said,

  I was in a trance and I forgot it all.

  Bang-in-on-a-bout all that revolution in her head,

  She make a lover seem so magical.

Chorus 2

  She said I'm tired________,

  Come get me off the merry-go-round.

  I'm wired________,

  Well heaven must've sent yer, to save me for the rapture____ yeah.
