You’ll have to listen to the actual song for the rythm, although I did try to add te
rythm into the tab. It continues with these notes for a while but then later on there’s
riffs that I haven’t yet figured out, so this is just the basic intro… If you have any
corrections or constructive comments feel free to email me.

I just did this for fun and because I like this song alot, hope some people can work on
the rest so we can have a 100% correct tab for this amazing song.

Bridge:
It was a giant mistake? gigantic
It was a giant mistake ? gigantic

Chorus:
What the hell were we thinking were we thinking at all?
What the hell did we believe we?d achieve
We stood there with our hearts exposed as the elders said
I told you so what the hell what the hell

Verse:
And eloquently said the phrase that pays but somehow
I?m still flat broke
Succulently licked four five six seven don?t leave me alone

Bridge:
It was a giant mistake? gigantic
It was a giant mistake ? gigantic

Chorus:
What the hell were we thinking were we thinking at all?
What the hell did we believe we?d achieve
We stood there with our hearts exposed as the elders said
I told you so what the hell what the hell

Chorus:
What the hell were we thinking were we thinking at all?
What the hell did we believe we?d achieve
We stood there with our hearts exposed as the elders said
I told you so what the hell what the hell (Chorus x 2)

Ending:
D Bm G A (x2)

Awesome Band!

I’m an old romantic standing here clutching my bleeding heart
If I’m not good enough then I’ve had enough let’s make this fast
Who cares I’ll find my fish
I’m colourful
I get so nervous I stutter stutter
I am so clumsy I fumble stumble
I’m not some handsome knight in shining armour
I’m colourful, I’m colourful

Well honey you’re the reason
For the poet-inspired love affair
Honey this is treason
The king is gone Rapunzel let down your hair

I’m an old romantic standing here clutching my bleeding heart
If I’m not good enough then I’ve had enough let’s make this fast
Who cares I’ll find my fish
I’m colourful
I get so nervous I stutter stutter
I am so clumsy I fumble stumble
I’m not some handsome knight in shining armour
I’m colourful, I’m colourful

You lift me up take me higher higher

You fill me up with desire.

You lift me up take me higher higher

You fill me up with desire.

I get so nervous I stutter stutter
I am so clumsy I fumble stumble
I’m not some handsome knight in shining armour
I’m colourful, I’m colourful

Desire imitations, fading passions
You say I dont hold you the way I used to
Fantastic illusions, harsh assumptions
You say I dont kiss you the way I used to

Theres a hole where your heart used to be
Heaven help you
Hate where love used to be
Heaven better help you
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_parlotones/bird_in_flight_crd.html )
CHORUS
Stop holding on so damn tight
Your love is like its like a bird in flight
The tighter you grip, the looser is slips
B E (Hold E for 4 counts of 4)
You love is like its like a bird in flight

SECOND VERSE:

Life of millionaires, such extraordinaire
I bet they dont kiss any differently
Life of movie stars, perfect scripted parts
I bet they dont taste any differently

Night lives where life used to be
Heaven help you
Theres lines on your face where a smile used to play
Heaven better help you

CHORUS

Intro: C, C7, Am, G x2
Sip it slowly sweetness sometimes tempts us into the silly
Choked by cherry chocolate charm in a chariot of phony

Have we been fooled? (x2)
What, oh what are we to do?

Should we fight back?
Or should we just swallow our pride?
We won’t use violence, we’ll try not to break too many hearts
[ Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_parlotones/should_we_fight_back_crd.html ]
We’re idealistic but we’re also afraid
Should we fight back?
Or should we just swallow our pride?

C, C7, Am, G (x2)

Same chords for the next verse and chorus

Follow through the snow, the glow, to the golden city

Swallow our frowns, we’ll leave here proud from this island filled with pity

Have we been fooled?

What, oh what are we to do?

Should we fight back?
Or should we just swallow our pride?
We won’t use violence, we’ll try not to break too many hearts
We’re idealistic but we’re also afraid
Should we fight back?
Or should we just swallow our …

Bridge: (I suggest you play all of these as barre chords)

C E F G#
Pride in who we are and this battle will be won
C E F G
In dreams we’re invincible, we taste victory in our tongues
F E G
The messiah from the Transkei, born to inspire

Should we fight back?
Or should we just swallow our pride?
We won’t use violence, we’ll try not to break too many hearts
We’re idealistic but we’re also afraid
Should we fight back?
Or should we just swallow our pride?

A shooting star explodes in deep space

I feel the truth in your warmest embrace

This desire you can never erase

I hope that we never change

On an insignificant planet, of a humdrum star

I find significance in the shape of your heart

Lets journey to mars in this elevator car

I hope that we never change

CHORUS

Funny face x4
Where?s my negotiator? x4

I’ll, I’ll, Still beauty, colourful,
These blossoms are up for bloom.
One promise is just like a heart,
They get broken. But I’ll try my hardest. (echo try my hardest once)

Even if you’re rich,
Even if you’re poor, (Listen to song play this part slowly)
Every breath you breathe,
I’ll be there for you.

Even if you’re strong
Even if you’re not
Every breath you breathe, (Play this section slowly as well)
I’ll be there for you.

Angelic, little princess, (Speed up a little)
I wanna wake up
To your face every morning

Another love song
A silly love song
But it’s our song
And it’s forever

Even if you’re rich, (go mad for the rest!!)
Even if you’re poor,
Every breath you breathe,
I’ll be there for you.

Even if you’re strong
Even if you’re not
Every breath you breathe,
I’ll be there for you.

This song is forever
This song is forever
This song is forever
This song is forever

I’ll, I’ll, I’ll be there for you. (Repeat this at end.)

Even if you’re rich,
Even if you’re poor,
Every breath you breathe,
I’ll be there for you.

Even if you’re strong
Even if you’re not
Every breath you breathe,
I’ll be there for you.

This song is forever
This song is forever
This song is forever
This song is forever

Shake my head
Shake my head
I might as well

These demons sh[G/D]outing in my head pretend
Nervous twitch
Jealous twitch I

Its just in time to [G/E]realize stupid sinner

Im broken by the will to son

It?s a long way home
It?s a long way home
It?s a long way home
It?s a long way home
Verse

Toughen up
I better toughen up
Or I will suffocate
And it would be to late
to realize perfec[G/D]tions not a flavour

Chorus x2
I rest my eyes
My skin unfolds
A place to die
Can call my own
Friends can phone I gues you call it home

And don’t stand next to me
and think it comes so easily
I’m not your toy

‘Cause you think love is something new
But it is just a tool
To make it alright.

Push me to the floor
Don’t give up until I’m begging you for more
I’ll be thinking of the time
I felt inspired

And don’t stand next to me
‘Cause I love the smell of ecstasy
It makes me feel inspired

‘Cause you think love is like a the singer
Sunrise up against you some- (Kahn [/]devides that word in 2)
how you’re always right

Push me to the floor
Don’t give up until I’m begging you for more
I’ll be thinking of the time
I felt inspired

And push me to the floor
Make me think that you’re the one that I adore
‘Till morning we will be
As if we’re meant to be

And your worth is worth nothing
when it’s at someone elses cost
And fortunes not appriciated
When the sweet stuff comes to fast

And push me to the floor
Don’t give up until I’m begging you for more
I’ll be thinking of the time
I felt inspired

And push me to the floor
Make me think that you’re the one that I adore
‘Till morning we will be
As if we’re meant to be

And your worth is worth nothing
when it’s at someone elses cost
And fortunes not appriciated
When the sweet stuff comes to fast

And push me to the floor
(here is a tab part that I’ve not figured out,just PLEASE message me if
you have it please!!Just strum each note slowly if you can’t get it)
I’ve been thinking about the time
I felt inspired

Thanks for checking out my song!!!!This is a damn long song!
