Standard Tuning.

VERSE 1
Am   C   Dm   Am   Am   E
Am        C                 Dm     Am
All the time you were burning my letters
Am                C               E
You were only acting the part
Am          C                       Dm      Am
You think without me you'll get on much better
    Am           E                 Am   
But you don't even know your own heart

CHORUS
C               Am                      F
Come home darling, Come home quickly
C               Am                 F
Come home darling, All is forgiven
    Dm  Am       C   Dm   Am   Am   C   E
So come home quickly.
Am   C   Dm   Am
Am   E   Am

VERSE 2
Am          C             Dm             Am
I treated you as if you were a princess
Am              C           E
You treated me like a cop
Am              C                Dm                Am
I gave you boundaries to save you from certain death
Am                      E          Am
Dangling from the end of a rope

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Dm                      Am
But you're still playing
        F               G       C
For a love you'll never find
    B?    Am              (rest)  F (hold...)           
outside these arms of mine

VERSE 3
Am          C           Dm         Am
The whole town is one step behind you
Am         C              E
With the hangman on call
Am                C                      Dm                Am
They've got a judge and you're convicted without a plea
Am                      E            Am
Darling they will listen to me (x3)

Comments about this tab

relatively accurate-- definitely some mistakes with regard to timing, but it gives the basic gist. it should be noted that the band plays the bass note of each note twice and then strums once, quickly, before muting and going to the next chord.
