Tell Me Tab

   
Song Title: Tell Me
Band Name: Side A
Tab by: Keno Ventolero

Great song from one of the best OPM bands ever..

Guitar 1 ~ Standard Tuning (preferably acoustic, capo on 2)
Guitar 2 ~ Standard Tuning (overdrive) ~ For the solo part

Also, see my Guitar Pro version of the song, you'll learn
the song quicker using that software.. ;)

Verse 1:

G         D/F#
There are nights..
     Em           D/F#
When I can't help but cry..
B7/Eb             Em      D      A/C#  D
And I'm wonderin' why you had to leave me..

G   D/F#   Em             D/F#
Why did it have to end so soon?
B7/Eb              Em        D     A/C#  D
When you said that you would never leave me..

[Tab]: (Well at least here's how I play it...)

Tell me..
Cadd9       Bm7 - Em
Where did I go wrong?
Cadd9            Bm7  -   Em          Am7
What did I do to make you change your mind..
      D - Cadd9
Completely..
    Bm7 - Em
And I thought..
     Cadd9            Bm7 - Em
This love would never end..
    Cadd9              Bm7  -  Em
But if this love's not ours to have..
    Am7
I'd let it go..
     D        G ~
