Artist: Bahamas Album: Bahamas Is Afie (2014) Standard tuning w. capo on 3rd fret All chords are relative to capo ***Please read*** The F chord Afie uses is a Fmaj7. In the tab I kept it as a regular F so I could place the chords at the exact timings for the chord changes. Fmaj7 e|--0--| B|--1--| G|--2--| D|--3--| A|--x--| E|--1--|
Also, for the "choir section" I tried to figure out the progression and I think it's pretty accurate. However, if you can decipher what Em-like chord Afie ends on. I've looked at The Wild Honey Pie's Buzzsession at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qoi_xdke_Kk and it looks like a Em open chord with the A string open. But, I don't think it sounds 100 % similar. If you know the correct chord, please throw a comment. *** Dm F Dm F Dm F And I held the breath inside my lungs for days Dm F And I saw myself as one of many waves A# Gm F Dm F When I knew that I'd become the ocean's slave I just stayed Dm F And we carried forward all the water's past Dm F Of the waves I was not first I was not last A# Gm F Dm D7 If we saw a boat afloat we'd take the mast, so fast A# F C Where's a part of it that I miss A# F C At the heart of it your cold kiss A# F C From the start of it I know this A# Oh where's the part of it (Chords over the solo) Dm F Dm F A# Gm F Dm F Dm F And before too long the waves grew out of hand Dm F And they worked to keep the sea at their command A# Gm F Dm D7 And the only thing they feared it seemed the sand, the dry land A# F C There's a part of it that I miss A# F C At the heart of it your cold kiss A# F C From the start of it I know this A# Oh where's the part of it (Chords over choir section) Dm F A# Gm F Em Dm F A# Gm F Em Dm F Dm F Dm F From the water there was born a bright blue roar Dm F As it rolled and formed and calmed the ocean's floor A# Gm F Dm D7 And then it finally rose and broke upon the shore no more A# F C There's a part of it that I miss A# F C At the heart of it your cold kiss A# F C From the start of it I know this A# Oh where's the part of it A# F C There's a part of it that I miss A# F C At the heart of it your cold kiss A# F C From the start of it I know this A# Oh where's the part of it A# Oh where's the part of it Dm F
