Hi guys :)

At the moment, this is my favourite Mika song. It brought me to tears. Check out 
YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9o6gG_E1Uo 
I looked for tabs, but I couldn't find any. So I decided to take an hour or two 
and use my dad's piano :P
After that, I tried my guitar. It sounds amazing, even with my limited skills... xD

I think the best sound comes from plucking the strings, not strumming, that also 
comes closest to the original way Mika played it on the piano. 
But making a tab was too much work for my lazy butt xD Just listen to the song and 
you'll manage just fine.
Have fun with it, you guys, and remember: Love, love, Mika!

Mika - Intoxicated
Chords used: Gm   Dm   A#   F   A7 (wherever I put 'A7/E' I mean A7 with an 
E for the bass note. So instead of omitting the E-string like you normally do, play all 
of the strings. Of course: never stop listening and if you hear something you think is not right, 
then don't play that note. Again: this is plucking strings, you can always skip a atring if the note sounds off ;))     

I'm not sure that Mika plays the A7/E thing, but it seemed the most logical option to me.

Intro:  Dm    A#    F    A7
        Dm    A#    F 
 
       A7          Dm
You�re totally depressing,
      A#              F
You treat me like a fool,
     A7                 Dm
Am I caught up in the reasons,
        A#                 F
For the stupid things you do?
       A7        Dm             A#              F
You're so intoxicating, there's nothing I can say,
       A7              Dm
And I feel as if I'm bleeding,
        A#                F       A7/E
From a thousand miles away


     Dm        A#       F   Gm         Dm    A#   C   F  A7/E
And all the stars are fading, so are mine
     Dm        A#       F   C     Dm   A#     F      
And all the tears - breaking, so must I

         A7/E      Dm
You�re totally depressing,


(Repeat verse, repeat chorus, repeat verse; all the same chords as given above)

Final line:
       A7              Dm
And I feel as if I'm bleeding,
        A#                F    Gm   (A7/E) Dm
From a thousand miles away
