Released at October 21st 2008 as part of the Last Shadow Puppets debut -and only- album "The Age of the Understatement", this track revolves around a very easy rhythmic guitar section and the signature jamesbond-esque orchestra arrangements. Lyrics by Alex Turner & Miles Kane =============================================================================== NOTE: This tab is based on the next live performance: Live at Avatar Studios 2008 - http://goo.gl/Ow6yfk I highly recommend watching this live version to grasp Miles' rhythmic guitar part. =============================================================================== [Chords] (low to high, in order of appereance) C 8-10-10-988 Em X79987 Dm X57765 Am 577555 G 355433 Dm* XX0231 G7 320001 Em* 022000 [Verse 1]
C   Em Dm      Am        Dm    Em Dm        G
The colder the night gets  the further she strays

C   Em Dm      Am     Dm Em Dm      G
And he doesn't like it   Being this way

        C Em Dm  Am       Dm    Em Dm        G
And she tried so hard to steer away from the meeting place

        C  Em Dm  Am      Dm  Em Dm  G
But her heart had led her there
C Em Dm Am Dm Em Dm G [Verse 2]
C   Em     Dm     Am           Dm    Em Dm   G
She clings to his consciousness  where--ver he lays

C   Em Dm       Am             Dm  Em Dm       G
He struggles to sleep at night and du-ring the day

                            C       Em Dm  Am
He's worried she's waiting in his dreams

   Dm       Em   Dm     G
To drag him back to the meeting place

    C   Em Dm  Am       Dm    Em Dm
His love   had left him there

          G
Where her voice still echoes
[Chorus]
Dm*          G7               Dm*         G7
"I'm sorry I met you darling, I'm sorry I met you"

       Em*                                      Dm*
As she turned into the night all he had was the words

             G7               Dm*         G7
"I'm sorry I met you darling, I'm sorry I left you"
C Em Dm Am Dm Em Dm G [Verse 3]
C   Em    Dm        Am            Dm Em Dm       G
For weeks they had strolled around,  playing the fools

C Em   Dm       Am             Dm    Em   Dm       G
  They knew the time would come  and time would be cruel

                      C        Em Dm  Am
Because it's cruel to e--veryone

     Dm     Em   Dm       G
He's crying out  from the meeting place

               C Em Dm  Am      Dm   Em Dm
He's stran-ded himself there

          G
Where her voice still echoes,
[Chorus]
Dm*          G7               Dm*         G7
"I'm sorry I met you darling, I'm sorry I met you"

       Em*                                      Dm*
As she turned into the night all he had was the words

             G7               Dm*         G7
"I'm sorry I met you darling, I'm sorry I left you"
[Interlude] (in the acoustic live performance they sing the strings section) Em*
Dm*            G7  Dm*            G7
Dara-rara dara-ra, dara-rara dara-ra

   Em*
Da-raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...
(Da da ra, da da ra) [Outro]
Dm*          G7               Dm*         G7
"I'm sorry I met you darling, I'm sorry I left you"
