                        THE WINDOW SONG - THE KOOKS
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tabbed by Drew B. (Dreb1275)

This is a great song and definately one of the Kooks best singles.  Enjoy!

Tune up a little bit on every string. For example make the E string between E and F

Intro - (Same as Verse 1)

Verse 1
A#       C        F
 I look out, my window
C            A#       F
 Oh just to see her arrive
A#              C             F         C       Dm
 But she'll be gone, just as soon as I open my eyes
Dm C A#        C                 F
      Just as soon as I open my eyes

Verse 2
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_kooks/window_song_crd.html ]
A#               C               F
 And is this a dream, that I'm having
C            A#       F
 Oh it all seems so real
A#              C             F         C       Dm
 Cause she'll be gone, just as soon I open my eyes
Dm C A#        C                 F
      Just as soon as I open my eyes

Bridge

A#                       Dm
 And I gave her so very much
                          G
 And I never never give enough
                      Gm7         C          D7    A#
 This love is turning me, into something that I'm not
                           Dm
 And I've got my problems, yes
                        G
 Oh I've got to be the best
                       Gm7        C     D7
 Oh this jealousy is turning me upside down

A#       C        F
 I look out, my window

This should be the whole song.  I recommend listening to how he plays it to really get a 
for it, especially the way he arpegiates the chords in the beggining.
