Intro: C#m, C#m, Dm, Dm, C#m, C#m,
Em
F C Bb
Sink in my skin, like a tattoo,
F F/E Dm
But pictures can fade,
C Bb
Like a flower locked in a dark room,
F C Bb
Lie on our backs, talk till we�re new,
F F/E Dm C Bb
But voices will wake us, burst into the bedroom,
G Bb
I fall in a dive,
G Bb Bbm
Like a kingfisher flies
F Am
I gave you, into the wrong hands,
Bb Bb Bb(m)
The wrong hands, you were right to throw your head up,
F Am
Gave you into the wrong hands,
Dm Bb
Oh my careless heart, oh my careless heart
F C Bb
Carry my past, caught like a gun,
F F/E Dm
And sharp, shoot the stars down,
C Bb
Oh now look what I�ve done.
G Bb
I fall in a dive,
G Bb Bbm
Like a kingfisher flies
F Am
I gave you, into the wrong hands,
Bb Bb Bb(m)
The wrong hands, you were right to throw your head up,
F Am
Gave you into the wrong hands,
Dm Bb
Oh my careless heart, oh my careless heart
C#m, C#m, Dm, Dm, C#m, C#m,
Em
F C Bb
Send me a wreathe, then I�ll be gone,
F F/E Dm C Bb
For nothing can live when you�re poisoning your first love,
G Bb
I fall in a dive,
G Bb Bbm
Like a kingfisher flies
F Am
I gave you, into the wrong hands,
Bb Bb Bb(m)
The wrong hands, you were right to throw your head up,
F Am
Gave you into the wrong hands,
Dm Bb
Oh my careless heart, oh my careless heart
F Am
I gave you, into the wrong hands,
Bb Bb Bb(m)
The wrong hands, you were right to throw your head up,
F Am
Gave you into the wrong hands,
Dm Bb
Oh my careless heart, oh my careless heart
F
Oh my careless heart.
For a first tab I don't think I've done too bad. The only queries I would I have myself
about the intro and that middle 8; those chords dont sound EXACTLY right, but if you
the root note and the G, B and E strings it should sound okay. If anyone has any
particularly regarding those parts, email me at danger_dick@hotmail.com
