Thanks a lot you two for making and submitting this tab here.



I think it would be a lot easier for some novice player to play this song without 

the bar chords :) so i made the capo version of it.

But i’m still can’t figure how to play Dm while placing your capo on 2nd fret so i 

guess you still have to play the chord like this:





Dm: 556645





here we go.....



{CAPO ON 2nd FRET}



Guitar 1 (Alex Turner)





Intro

G



Verse 1

G

I thought I saw you in the battleship

C                    Am

but it was only a look-a-like

G

She was nothing but a vision trick

C              Am

Under the warning light

Em                 G                                   Em

She was close, close enough to be your ghost

G

But my chances turned to toast

C                              Am                         G                   (Em   G   Em)

When i asked her if i could call her your name



G

I thought I saw you in the rusty hook

C                     Am

Huddled up in a wicker chair

G

I wandered over for a closer look

C 		                 Am

And kissed who ever was sitting there

Em                G                              E

She was close, and she held me very tightly

G

'Til I asked awfully politely, please



C            Am           G

Can I call you her name.



(To transition into the chorus play this; G Em G Em Em, listen out for the strumming)



Chorus

C                                          Am

And I elongated my lift home,

Em                                                   C

Yeah, I let him go the long way 'round

Am

I smelt your scent on the seatbelt

Em

And kept my shortcuts to myself

G C Em (Come in with G at the end of the chorus and play these chords like in the verse)



Verse 2 (Same Pattern)

G

I thought I saw you in the parrots beak,

C                        Am

Messing with the smoke alarm,

G

It was too loud for me to hear her speak,

C                     Am

And she had a broken arm,

Em                 G                                   Em

It was close, so close that the walls were wet

G

And she wrote it out in letra-set

C           Am                     Bm

No, you can't call me her name



Bridge

G                               Bm

Tell me where's your hiding place

G                     Bm

I'm worried I'll forget your face

Em

And I've asked everyone

Am                                 Em                        

I'm beginning to think I imagined you all along



Chorus

C                                          Am

And I elongated my lift home,

Em                                                   C

Yeah, I let him go the long way 'round

Am

I smelt your scent on the seatbelt

Dm

And kept my shortcuts to myself





Solo

G C Am x2 (Play this like you would in the verse)

Em Am

C Em



Verse 3

G

I saw your sister in the cornerstone

C                             Am

On the phone to the middle man

G

When I saw that she was on her own

C                             Am

I thought she might understand

Em                              G

She was close, well you couldn't get much closer

Em             G                                       C

She said i'm really not supposed to but yes,

                              Am                   G

You can call me anything you want.



Fade out.
