                             Puritan by Widowspeak
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Opening track from the band's 2011 self titled debut. Couldn't make out all the lyrics, 
but I tried to write down what I could. I didn't bother tabbing some of the lead solo 
stuff in the middle of the song, but these chords are correct.

Tuning: Standard

NOTE: E is the only chord in the song that is played open; the rest are all barre 
chords, as indicated.

Intro:

e|------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------|

E|-4/5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5---------4/5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5--------------|


   Four hour drive
   Strange world outside
   Shattered to see
   The sun go down

e|--7---    --5----|
B|--7---    --5----|
G|--8---    --6----|
D|--9---    --7----|

   B11        A
   Don't know ourselves

   B11     A
   In this hollow town



Then play this for the verses:

E (open) followed by A

E E E E E E E / AA


You can also play this over the top of these chords if you have two guitarists:

e|---------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------|
D|---9-9-9-9-9-9-------------------------|
A|------------------12-12-12-12-12-12----|
E|---------------------------------------|



    E
    Sometime in the written hour (?)

    A
    Puritans had all the power

    E
    Show them how their eyes were blue

    A
    Tell me I'll stay with you


    B11    A
    Always waiting

    B11        A
    And you're fading, fading out



    E
    So I looked my Sunday best

    A
    Still inside a (?) dress

    E
    Tall, dark ... (?)

    A
    Like the time they stood (?)



    B11   A
    I was looking

    B11      A
    Puritans watching

    B11      A
    I, I was watching, watching out



Resume E / A progression and end the song on the E chord.
