7...TEARS DRY ON THEIR OWN... by Amy Winehouse-----------------------------.................


*CAPO 2nd FRET*

(Original Key: A)

*NB: I'm unsure of the A chord usedin the Bridge, but it sounds close*

Verse 1:

D6 All I can ever be to you, G#m7b5Is a darkness that we knew, Gmaj7And this regret, F#m7 Em9 D/F# G E/G#I got ac-customed to.

D6 Once it was so right, G#m7b5When we were at our high,Gmaj7 Waiting for you,F#m7 Em9 D/F# G E/G# In the ho-tel at night.

Verse 2:

D6I knew I hadn't met my match, G#m7b5But every moment we could snatch. Gmaj7I don't know why,F#m7 Em9 D/F# G E/G# I got so attached.

D6It's my responsibility, G#m7b5And you don't owe nothing to me, Gmaj7But to walk away; F#m7 Em9 F#m7I have no ca-pacity.

Chorus 1:

Gmaj7 F#m7 He walks away, Bm7The sun goes down,

Gmaj7 F#m7 Bm7 He takes the day, but I'm grown. Gmaj7And in this grey, F#m7 Bm7In this blue shade, E7 F#m7 GMy tears dry on their own.

Verse 3:

D6 I don't understand, G#m7b5Why do I stress a man, Gmaj7When there’s so many,F#m7 Em9 D/F# G E/G# Better things at hand.

D6We could a never had it all, G#m7b5We had to hit a wall, Gmaj7So this is, F#m7 Em9 D/F# G E/G#In-evita-ble withdrawal.

Verse 4:

D6Even if I stop wanting you, G#m7b5A Per-spective pushes through, Gmaj7 F#m7I'll be some next man's, Em9 D/F# G E/G#Other woman soon.

D6I can't play myself again, G#m7b5I should just be my own best friend, Gmaj7 F#m7Not fuck myself in the head, Em9 F#m7With stupid men.

Chorus 2:

Gmaj7 F#m7 He walks away, Bm7The sun goes down,Gmaj7 F#m7 Bm7 He takes the day, but I'm grown. Gmaj7And in this grey, F#m7 Bm7In this blue shade, E7 F#m7 GMy tears dry on their own.

Bridge 1:

A

So we are history,Your shadow covers me,The sky above, a blaze...

Chorus 3:

Gmaj7 F#m7 He walks away, Bm7The sun goes down,Gmaj7 F#m7 Bm7 He takes the day, but I'm grown.Gmaj7 He takes the day, F#m7 Bm7But I'm grown. AAnd in your wake,In this blue shade,My tears dry on their own.

Verse 5:

D6I wish I could say no regrets, G#m7b5And no emotional debts, Gmaj7 F#m7'Cos as we kiss good-bye, Em9 D/F# G E/G#The sun sets.

D6So we are history, G#m7b5The shadow covers me, Gmaj7 F#m7The sky above a blaze, Em9 F#m7That only lovers see.

Chorus 3:

Gmaj7 F#m7 He walks away, Bm7The sun goes down,Gmaj7 F#m7 Bm7 He takes the day, but I'm grown. Gmaj7And in this grey, F#m7 Bm7In this blue shade, E7My tears dry, F#m7 GOn their own.

Chorus 4:

Gmaj7 F#m7 He walks away, Bm7The sun goes down,Gmaj7 F#m7 Bm7 He takes the day, but I'm grown. Gmaj7

And in this grey, F#m7 Bm7In this deep shade, E7 F#m7 GMy tears dry on their own.

Chorus 5:

Gmaj7 F#m7 He walks away, Bm7The sun goes down,Gmaj7 F#m7 Bm7 He takes the day, but I'm grown. Gmaj7And in your wake F#m7 Bm7My deep shade, Gmaj7 F#m7 Bm7My tears dry...

8...WAKE UP ALONE... by Amy Winehouse--------------------.................


*CAPO 4th FRET*

(Original Key: E)

*NB: All chords are played as Arpeggios*

Intro:

F E7, Am Ab,Cmaj7 Am, Ab,Dm C#

Verse 1:

F It's okay in the day; E7I'm staying busy.Am Tied up enough,

AbSo I don't have to wonder where is he. Cmaj7 AmGot so sick of crying, so just lately; Ab Dm C#When I catch myself, I do a 1-80.

Verse 2:

F I stay up clean the house;E7 At least I'm not drinking.Am Run around just so I don't have, AbTo think a-bout thinking. Cmaj7That silent sense of content, AmThat everyone gets,Ab Dm C# Just disappears soon as the sun sets.

Bridge 1:

Bb This face in my dreams,Seizes my guts;Eb Abdim He floods me with dread.Bb Soaked in soul, Eb C7He swims in my eyes by the bed.Bb Pour myself over him;Eb Abdim Moon spilling in,Ab Gm Bmaj7 And I wake up a-lone.

Verse 3:

F If I was my heart, E7I'd rather be restless. AmThe second I stop,The sleep catches up, AbAnd I'm breathless. Cmaj7This ache in my chest, AmAs my day is done now. FThe dark covers me, Dm C#And I cannot run now.

Verse 4:

F My blood running cold,E7

I stand before him.Am It's all I can do, AbTo as-sure him. Cmaj7When he comes to me, AmI drip for him tonight.Ab
