Okay, these are the EXACT RIGHT CHORDS, and you can play them exactly this
way if you want. Being that I'm using a ukulele, I play it differently
because some of these chords don't even exist in ukulele world. I don't know
how my simplified version would sound on a guitar, but you can give it a
shot.
My simplified chords:
Em7 = Em
Em7/B = B
Em7/A = Em
Em7/G = Em
Em/G = G
Em7/D = D
D/F# = D
The simplification probably won't work on a guitar, but maybe it will.
Anyway, here is the COMPLETE AND UNSIMPLIFIED VERSION OF THE SONG
TUNE YOUR GUITAR DOWN A SEMITONE (though I don't, and it sounds fine.)
Intro:
Em7 - Em7 - Em7/B - Em7/B - Em7/A - Em7/A - Em/G - Em/D
Em7I know what you want
Em7/B
I wanna take you to a midnight show tonight
If Em7you can keep a secret
Em7/B
I've got a blanket in the backseat on my mind,
And a Clittle place that Bmsits beneath the Em7sky.
She Cturned her face to Bmspeak,
But no one Dheard her cry.
-mute------- Em7 Em7/B
Drive faster, boy-----
Drive faster,Em7/A boy--Em/G---YeaEm7/Dh--
Em7I know there's a hope.
Em7/B
There's too many people trying to help me cope.
You've got a Em7real short skirt,
Em7/B
I wanna look up, look up, look up, yeah, yeah.
Em7We were just in time,
Em7/B
Let me take a little more off your mind.
There's Em7something in my head,
Somewhere in the back said:
Em7/B
We were just a good thing, we were such a good thing.
CMake it go awBmay without a Em7word.
But Cpromise me you'll Bmstay,
and fix these Dthings I've hurt.
-mute strings----- Em7 Em7/B
Oh make it go away, oh----.
Em7/G Em/G Em7/D
Drive faster, boy----, yeah, oh no,
Solo:
Em7 - Em7 - Em7/B - Em7/B - Em7/A - Em7/A - Em/G - Em/D
A Ccrashing tide can't Bmhide a guilty Em7girl.
With Cjealous hearts that Bmstart with gloss and Em7curls.
I Ctook my baby's Bmbreath, beneath the Amchandelier.
Of stars in Gatmosphere,
D/F# D Em7 Em7/B
And watched her disappear, into the midnight show----
A-fasterEm7/A, a-faster, a-faster, a-faEm/Gster, fasterEm7/D, a-faster,
Oh Em7no, no, no, no, no, no,
Em7/B
No, no, no, no, no.
If Em7/Ayou can keep a secret,
Em/G Em7/D Em7 - Em7/B - Em7/A
Well baby I can keep, you can keep a secret.
Em/G Em7/D Em7 - Em7/B
If you can keep a secret, I can keep a secret.
If Em7/Ayou can keep a secret,
Well Em/Gbaby I can keep, Em7/Dyou can keep a secEm7ret.
