Text File

ok so ive seen a lot of others tabs of this song, but i was taught this way and i think 
sounds better. :) Its preatty simple, the strumming patters are a little tricky so ill 
my best to notate it:
8 beats per "line"

Chord  Am          F   C       G
beat   1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8

otherwise just listen to the song, its easy enough to pick up.

capo 3rd Frett

all chords relative to capo.
word.
FOr people who dont think theres a difference between the real F- the bar chord (133211) 
the cheats F- Fmaj7 (xx3210) you're all wrong. theres a big difference.
and yes. theres also a difference between c (32010) and Cadd9 (32033).
as for the rest:
Am- (x02210)
dm- (xx0231)
G- (320033)


listen to song for pattern :)

into: Am F C G x3, dm, Fmaj (same 
as verses)
VERSE 1:
Am                 F    C         G
Still a little bit your tastes in my mouth
Am                    F   C          G
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
Am                      F  C
its still a little hard to say
G                 dm     Fmaj7
hard to say whats going on

Verse 2:

Am                            F    C          G
there�s still a little bit of your ghost your weakness
Am                            F    C      G
there�s still a little bit of your face i haven't kissed
Am                       F     C
you step a little closer each day
     G                 dm    Fmaj7
and I can�t see what�s going on

Chorus:
Cadd9               G
stones taught me to fly
Cadd9                 G
love, it taught me to lie
Cadd9                 G
life, it taught me to die
            dm
so it's not hard to fall
         Fmaj7
when you float like a cannonball

fill: Am F C G x3, dm, Fmaj7 (same 
as verse)

Verse 3:

Am                            F    C       G
there�s still a little bit of your song in my ear
Am                            F    C        G
there�s still a little bit of your words i long to hear
Am                       F  C
you step a little closer to me
   G                             dm          Fmaj7
so close that I can�t see what�s going on

Chorus 2:

Cadd9               G
stones taught me to fly
Cadd9                 G
love, it taught me to lie
Cadd9                 G
life, it taught me to die
            dm
so it's not hard to fall
         Fmaj7
when you float like a cannon..

Cadd9               G
stones taught me to fly
Cadd9                 G
and love taught me to cry
           C
so come on courage
               G
teach me to be shy
               dm
cause it's not hard to fall
      Fmaj7
and i don't wanna scare her
         dm
it's not hard to fall
      Fmaj7
and i don't wanna lose
         dm
it's not hard to grow
          Fmaj7                   (Am)
when you know that you just don't know

coda: Am, F, C, G x3 dm Fmaj (same
