Artist/Band: Krauss Alison Tabs
Song: Paper Airplan Tab
Capo on 2nd fret.
Drop D tuning (DADGBE)
Tune is picked, not strummed (x = don't play)
C#m = x-2-4-4-3-x-------|
B' = x-2-0-0-3-x-------|
B'' = x-0-2-2-2-x-------|
B''' = 7-x-7-6-5-x-------| (easier to move to Ab7 on 8th fret if you use this)
A = 5-x-0-0-3-x-------|
A' = 5-x-5-4-3-x-------|
Ab7 = x-1-2-3-2-x or 8-x-8-6-7-x-|
F#m = 2-x-2-0-0-x-------|
During intro, F#m-C#m-B progression has hammer ons and offs. I'm no expert at tab but
here's an approximation of what's being played (capo-less tuning shown):
E|----------------------------------------------|
B|------0---------------------------------------|
G|-----0----------------------------------------|
D|----2-----2-4--4-2-0-4-2--2-------------------|
A|---------------------0------------------------|
D|--2------0----0-------------------------------|
It's my first attempt, I hope you like it!
C#m B' B'' A
I've put it all behind me, nothing left to do or doubt
F#m C#m B''
Some may say
C#m B' B'' A
But every silver lining always seems to have a cloud
F#m C#m B''
That comes my way
C#m B' B'' A
Anticipated pleasure or unexpected pain
F#m C#m B''
No choice I feel
C#m B' B'' A
Love is hard to measure, hidden in the rain
F#m C#m B'
That's why you'll find me
E C#m F#m
Here all alone and still wondering why
A B'
Waitin inside for the cold to get colder
E C#m F#m
And here where it's clear that I've wasted my time
A' B''' Ab7 C#m
Hopin to fly cause it's almost over now
* mandolin solo *
* guitar solo *
[chord sequence as per verse (twice through) except resolves to E at end before going
back to the first C#m of next verse]
C#m B' B'' A
People come together, people go their own way
F#m C#m B'
Love conquers few
C#m B' B'' A
And I'll do whatever I'll say what I need to say
F#m C#m B'
Just not for you
E C#m F#m
How many days should I smile with a frown?
A B'
'Cos you're not around with the sun on your shoulders
E C#m F#m
And how many nights must I wake up alone
A B''' Ab7 C#m
And know in my soul that it's almost over now?
*slide guitar solo*
[chord sequence as per verse (once through) except resolves to E at end before going
back to the first C#m of next verse]
[more gentle, preparing for pause on second line]
C#m B'
Love is like a paper airplane
B'' A
Flyin in the folded dent [pause]
F#m C#m B''
Ridin high dippin low
C#m B'
But innocence is fair game
B'' Ab7 C#m
I'm hopin I can hold it in
F#m C#m B ...E...
Our love will die I know
