Sweet Invisible, by Boo Hewerdine
From Ignorance, 1992.
This is played with the capo on the first fret. The tabs refer to the chord shapes on
tuning.
D G x 4
D G
Everyone a secret life
D G
A secret sorrow, secret wife
D G
Somewhere they think that they can hide
D
But all the time I knew
G
I was watching you
D G
Up the ladder to the roof
D G
Halfway between hell and the stars
D G
We talked about the humdrum truth
D
And all the time I knew
G
And I was watching you
A G
Sweet, sweet
A G
Sweet, sweet
D G
Sweet invisible
D G
Sweet invisible
D G A
Sweet invisible
G A
He can't touch you any more
Bm A
You only get one chance so take it
Bm Asus4 A
Or spend your whole life learning to fake it
D G
D G
And the traces that we leave
D G
And the loved ones in distress
D G
Their sleep patterns in a mess
D
And all the time they knew
G
And they were watching you
A G
Sweet, sweet
A G
Sweet, sweet
D G
Sweet invisible
D G
Sweet invisible
D G A
Sweet invisible
G A
He can't touch you any more
D G
So they come to the same place every day
D
To watch each other, but they never meet
G
So they come each day to the same place
D
To watch each other, but they never meet
G
They never meet
D G
Sweet invisible
On the D, I think Boo pulls off to get a Dsus2 on the second to last beat of the two
on D. He does something similar to introduce a G6 on the bars with G. Listen to the song -
get it.
