          IF I‘D FOUND THE RIGHT WORDS TO SAY
              (LIVE and ACOUSTIC)
                SNOW PATROL


NOTE: This was a request for the LIVE and ACOUSTIC version of the song that was done at
   SHEPHERD‘S BUSH EMPIRE LONDON on 5-9-2011. This version is ONLY for that performance.
          Here is the LINK: https://youtu.be/KZyJ4OJoIH8
   Please keep this in mind when playing and rating this tab.

   Also note that the acoustics in that place seem to echo and because of that at times
   I hear the A chord as an Asus4 and even the E chord at times sounds like an E7. Try
   those as well if you feel the need to.

NOTE: ALBUM VERSION is below this tab (see below)


CAPO: 5th FRET


INTRO:
Palm mute then
A A E E G G D D


VERSE:
 A
Right about now, if I`d found the right words to say
   E
I`d tell you you`re safe and take hold of your hand
     G
I`ll be there by your side for the rest of your life
   A
Our bodies could fall off the end of the world

 A
Something told me we`d be happy forever
  E
I don`t see how this could change any of that
    G
I will follow your ghost as it falls off the rock-face
   A
And lie with you on the grass above


CHORUS:
     Em       D
And I`d like to change all this
     Em       D
And I`d like to wake up from this
  G    G
By your side


VERSE;
 A
How did we ever survive for this length of time?
 E
Living with only a care for one thing
     G
But the light that shines from her
 G
Whenever she`s happy
   D
Is worth every minute that we`ve saved ourselves
 A
Maybe there`s hope in just one final second
  E
A flash of her love as she waves us goodbye
    G
Don`t torture yourself with what we might have given
  D
We did everything that we could ever do


CHORUS:
     Em       D
And I`d like to change all this
     Em       D
And I`d like to wake up from this
  G    G
By your side


CHORUS:
     Em       D
And I`d like to change all this
     Em       D
And I`d like to wake up from this
  G    G  A
By your side
