Slow Dancing In A Burning Room

"Slow Dancing In A Burning Room"

Tabbed by Dave Ross

I've seen some pretty good chords on here, and they sounded really good with the CD, but

this you don't have to use a capo, and the chords are easy and sound perfect.

Chords I use:

E A D G B E

- - - - - -

E- 0 2 2 1 0 0

C#m7- x 4 6 6 0 0

A add9- 0 7 7 6 0 0

B add11- 0 9 9 8 0 0

Intro - C#m7, Aadd9, E (Repeat)

C#m7

It's not a silly little moment

Aadd9 E

It's not the storm before the calm

C#m7

This is the deep and dying breath of

Aadd9 E

This love that we've been working on

(Repeat Chords)

Can't seem to hold you like I want to

So I can feel you in my arms

Nobody's gonna come and save you

We've pulled too many false alarms

(Chorus)

Badd11

We're going down

C#m7 Aadd9

And you can see it too

Badd11

We're going down

C#m7 Aadd9

And you know that we're doomed

C#m7 Aadd9 E

My Dear we're slow dancing in a burning room

(Intro)

(Same chords as previous verses)

I was the one you always dreamed of

You were the one I tried to draw

How dare you say it's nothing to me

Baby you're the only light I ever saw

I'll make the most of all the sadness

You'll be a bitch because you can

You try to hit me just to hurt me so you leave me feeling dirty

Because you can't understand

(Chorus)

(Intro x2)

C#m7 Aadd9 E

Go Cry about it why don't you (repeat 3 times)

C#m7 Aadd9 E

My Dear we're slow dancing in a burning room

Intro x4

(Repeat this part maybe 3 or 4 times. )

C#m7

Don't you think we outta know by now

Aadd9 E

Don't you think we should've learned somehow

On the CD it doesn't have a true ending to the song it just fades out, so maybe just end with-

My Dear We're slow dancing in a burning room

Hope you liked the tab, if you think there is anything that could be added to make this

let me know!
