"FOR YOU" - Split Enz, from their first single 'For You' (1973)
Note: this song is originally fingerpicked and if you roughly follow the tab below in a sort of percussive
finger style then you can get pretty close to the original, a strange picking pattern with an extra bass thumb
note thrown in where you least expect it... that's Phil Judd for you!

Dsus2/F# We're outside the times A Seen the break of day G My parents beat me 'cause I laughed B Or something like that Dsus2/F# For nights on end A You've been my friend G A(add9) A A(add9) F(add9) F I've turned the lights on just for you G(add9) G G(add9) F(add9) F F(add9) F E For you, for you, just for you
[Verse 2]
Dsus2/F# Blueboys on the stage A Yes he's quite the rage G His parents loved his blue eyes B He knows where it's at Dsus2/F# People think he's queer A But to be quite fair G A(add9) A A(add9) F(add9) F You know he does it just for you G(add9) G G(add9) F(add9) F F(add9) F E For you, for you, just for you
[Verse 3]
Dsus2/F# You laugh so easily, but you A can see what it's like to be G They kicked your eyes in at four B When they shut the door Dsus2/F# Playing out masquerade A Even soldiers on parade G A(add9) A A(add9) F(add9) F The game they play is just for you G(add9) G G(add9) F(add9) F F(add9) F E For you, for you, just for you
