"New Lover" By Josh Ritter Tabbed by Tom(tkforeverer@yahoo.com) Props to Abe who helped me out a bit <3. Not a 100% sure but it sounds pretty ok. Also not sure about the song title, it's new and I recorded it at a concert and really couldn't see the chords. Welcome to all comments so I can correct. Thanks <3. Used this vid for audio - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-txZ8o6LeQ4 CHORD 654321 -------------- E Major 022100 E/C# x02100 A 002220 B7 021202 E -> E/C# -> A -> B7 Strumming pattern is something like ... D D DUDU go nuts. Last chord rolls into the start of the next line a bit. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Intro Progression x 4 (4th time he skips the E/C# and plays the E twice into the A) E E/C# A B7 E E/C# A B7 E E/C# A B7 E E A B7 -- E E/C# A B7 Can't pretend that all is well it's like I'm haunted by a ghost E E/C# A B7 There are times I cannot speak your name but I catch it in my throat E E/C# A B7 And if I don't sing this song it's out of fear of sour notes (not sure if that's 'of' OR 'or') Progression x 1 (E E/C# A B7) E E/C# A B7 Oh I feel like a miser Oh I feel low and mean E E/C# A B7 For accusing you of stealing what I offered you for free E E/C# A B7 Oh it beggars the belief sometimes what thieves we lovers be Progression x 1 (E E/C# A B7) E E/C# A B7 Oh I don't know who you're with these days might be with someone new E E/C# A B7 And if you are I hope he treats you like a lover ought to do E E/C# A B7 But whoever makes you happy it don't really matter who E E/C# A B7 I've got a new lover now I hope you've got a lover too Progression x 4 (E E/C# A B7) [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/j/josh-ritter/292476.html ] E E/C# A B7 Praise the water under bridges praise the time we say we'll heal E E/C# A B7 Praise the fonder that still grows on the absent heart and fields E E/C# A B7 Praise be to this pain these days it's all I seem to feel (not sure on lyric? all the same i fear? all the same i feel?)
