Chords

Hi guys, I couldn't find a version of this song which included the Bridge part, which is favorite in this song, so I decided to transcribe it myself. Pretty simple song, the Kooks plays it in G-major. I've included the intro roughly, you ALWAYS listen for the rythm of the guitar and try to find your own way of playing it. Enjoy, Callon

The night's just getting longer

Dm             F
Oh, am I still lonely?

Still a bad taste in my mouth

Now I found all things that I wanted

Still a bad taste in my mouth

F
See I sent away my baby

I sent her packing on down the chain

So now she ain't my baby

Yeah, but I still love her all the same

Still a bad taste in my mouth
[Bridge]
Dm          Am            F        G
So take me down there in time and feed me liquor

Dm       Am        G
I don't want pain tonight

            F
Where do I run to?

           Am      F             F
Where do I run to now that I've lost you?
