Chords
Attempt to capture chords for the way Mike plays this one in the 16 May 2021 live stream of
Sometimes It's Something, Sometimes It's Nothing at All:
I have included tab for what I believe to be the basic pattern for the intro, which also carries throughout
the song when Fmaj7sus2 and C are played. The notes in parentheses are ghost notes in the official audio,
but he accentuates them more in the intro for the live version.
PLAYING NOTES:
In the live version he only plays the chords once instead of 2 times for the instrumental
section between verses 2 and 3.
In the places where I have indicated changes from G to Gsus4 and back to G, you could also just stay on G.
In the place where I have listed Fmaj7sus2* he changes the picking pattern to swap the notes on the high e
and B strings, but you could also play the same pattern I have indicated in the intro for all of the
Fmaj7sus2 chords.

Fmaj7sus2 C x2
[Verse 1]
Fmaj7sus2 Well, will you fill my head with stories C 'til I close my eyes and dream until the dawn Fmaj7sus2 And when I'm sleeping tell me secrets C Tell me things you've never told no one before Fmaj7sus2 And when you wake up hiding nothing C Maybe you'll know how it feels to be born Fmaj7sus2 C And I could wake up feeling something for the first time in so long
[Verse 2]
G Gsus4 G We could walk down towards the sea Fmaj7sus2* In the new shoes I bought you G Gsus4 G Stay there for all of the day Am7 Gsus4 G While the sun plays on the water
[Instrumental]
Fmaj7sus2 C x2
[Verse 3]
Fmaj7sus2 Well, will you fill me with excitement C Like the feeling that we felt on Christmas Eve Fmaj7sus2 When we didn't know to laugh C Or to cry into our sleeves Fmaj7sus2 And I know some things are not real C But in you I truly feel I believe Fmaj7sus2 When we lie down on your bed C I press my head down on your chest and hear you breathe
[Verse 4]
G Well I know it's late but let's go to the sea Fmaj7sus2 I know a way that is shorter G Gsus4 G And we could sink out under the stars Fmaj7sus2 You can wear my woolen jumper G Gsus4 G And we can sink out into the stones Fmaj7sus2 You can lay upon my shoulder G Gsus4 G And we could stay there all of the night Am7 G While the moon rests on the water Am7 G While the moon rests on the water Am7 G Gsus4 G While the moon rests on the water
