Chords

[Notes] - Play barre chords, they sound best. - If you play using open chords, mute the e string as a rule, especially if you're playing along with the recording. - F#m is played above the other chords in the song (ie. if A is A3, F#m would be F#m4) but F#m3 is much easier to play on guitar, so just do that. If you really want to play the higher F#m as a chord then it would have to be played as F#m: [xx4222] but obviously [244222] is easier. [Intro] A [Verse 1]
A                                            D        A
I could not release the inspiration till you asked me to

A                                             D   A
Came at your body relentlessly throughout the year

A                                D    A
Too far away to nearly show this honeymoon

A                                         D    A
I was a stranger too familiar and not enough
[Chorus]
            D                   F#m    C#m    Bm   A
But I once saw the touch of your velvet hand upon my face

    D           F#m       C#m     Bm     A
I recall velvet gloves and spit and your embrace

             E       F#m
And I wanted nothing else
[Interlude] A [Verse 2]
A                                  D   A
The haunted hotel room the two bit man child

A                                          D     A
I could not simply fall asleep next to you every night

A                                D       A
Our castle in the sand built too high too soon

A                                           D
And under waving palms and waving sails and waves

    A
Goodbye
[Chorus 2]
            D                   F#m    C#m   Bm     A
But I once saw the touch of your velvet hand upon my face

    D           F#m       C#m    Bm    A
I recall velvet gloves and spit and your embrace

            D                   F#m    C#m    Bm   A
Oh I once saw the touch of your velvet hand upon my face

        D            F#m       C#m    Bm    A
And I recall velvet gloves and spit and your embrace

             E       F#m
And I wanted nothing else
[Interlude] A [Outro] D F#m C#m Bm A x4 E F#m A
