Chords

Song: Halo Artist: Alice Phoebe Lou Tabbed by: @ech0bravo on IG Chord names are based on their shapes in standard, besides the single finger barres, those are correct. I just watched what Alice was playing in her OurVinyl Sessions Video and synced up with the lyrics as best as I could, slight human error be advised, but you should get the feel down from the beginning and if you hear the recording a few times. Note that in relation to the words, G always comes before A and happen in quick succession with the vocal melody. The video will help you with the strumming pattern (she doesn't use a pick, but is amped up in her lives so I do use a pick personally to emulate the strong sound; do what sounds best to you): Chord Voicings: D: 000000 E: 022100 Amaj7: x02120 G: 005555 A: 007777 [Intro] D E D E D E [Verse 1]
D                    E D                  E
I see the sunlight drippin', it touches my skin

Amaj7                                 G       A D E D E
  Oh, all the shapes and colours I'm swimmin' in
[Verse 2]
D                   E D                          E D
The summer's finally here and orange trees are smiling

                   E D                        E
I've got my eyes to the sky, the day is calling

Amaj7                                 G  A D    E D E
Couldn't wipe the grin off of my face if I tried
[Verse 3]
D                     E D                          E D
Don't have a sense of purpose today, I'm a little nervous

         E D                               E D                 E
But sometimes you gotta find that sense of mission for yourself

Amaj7
     No one around to tell me what not to do

           G   A D  E D E D E D E
No one to motivate me
[Verse 4]
D                    E D
Oh, how the wheel is turning

                    E        Amaj7
Fortune is spinning 'round my halo

            G    A  D   E D E
And I don't need anybody
[Verse 5]
D                  E D            E D
I'll go out walking, clear my head

                   E D                        E  Amaj7
Haven't done much talking since I landed in this funny heaven

               G      A D            E D E
It's a little lonely but I don't mind
[Verse 6]
D                    E D           E D
It's quite a contrast, I'm not used to this life

               E D                 E
I'm always caring for everybody else

Amaj7
But if I put that care in me

     G    A  D      E D E
How easy it could be
[Outro]
Amaj7
I thought that I was escaping my reality

         G        A D    E D E
But I took it along with me

Amaj7
I thought that I was escaping my reality

         G        A D
But I took it along with me
