The Tourist

• C#m

Okay so I preformed this at a show and I think this is how the chords go :) 
I think this is the first thingy I have done so please be kind :D 
With the strumming pattern if you listen to the song you can like pick it up, 
she changes it at different times so just do what feels good. 
I play the A different to a normal one but a normal one sounds fine if you wanna use it :) 

This is the A I play     C#m       B       E       This is the normal A

Capo-8 
Intro : C#m,B, A x2 

C#m           B 
She said she hated tourists 
        A 
But she wanted to travel the world. 
C#m               B 
Said the best things in life were free 
         A 
And then worked all day to feed herself. 
          C#m             B 
She said, you never know what you got until it's gone 
           A 
And she complained about the rain like she'd never seen the sun. 
         C#m                  B 
She said good things come to those who wait 
          A 
And then she waited four hours for a cancelled train. 

She said: 
E 
You try and catch me 
A 
I'll never stop running. 
C#m                              B             A 
With a pound in my pocket and my life inside a bag. 
E 
You try and catch me 
A 
I know where I'm going 
C#m                               B                        A 
I'll be half way round the world before you even know I'm gone 
She said I'm moving on. 

C#m,B,A 

C#m                     B 
She fell in love with a book once; 
A 
Fell in love with the page. 
C#m                        B 
She fell in love with the author 
A 
Didn't remember his name. 
              C#m                        B 
She read your soul weighs nothing but a lump in your throat 
A 
The one's you see less are the one's you love most. 
C#m                        B                 A 
So she burnt that book and flew down to the coast. 

She said: 
E 
You try and catch me 
A 
I'll never stop running. 
C#m                               B             A 
With a pound in my pocket and my life inside a bag. 
E 
You try and catch me 
A 
I know where I'm going 
C#m                               B                        A 
I'll be half way round the world before you even know I'm gone 
She said I'm moving on. 

E,C#m,B x4 

E 
So she's sitting on a train with her bags at her feet 
Stories entertain every pair of ears that she meets. 
C#m                    B 
She's got gold in her soul. 
E 
What she wants, nobody knows. 
E 
She's got two right feet and a bag full of clothes. 
C#m                    B 
She's got gold in her soul. 
E 
Going nowhere slowly and that's what she needs 
She's on the right track to where she'd rather be. 
C#m                    B 
She's got gold in her so-oul. 

E 
You try and catch me 
A 
I'll never stop running. 
C#m                              B              A 
With a pound in my pocket and my life inside a bag. 
E 
You try and catch me 
A 
I know where I'm going 
C#m                               B                        A 
I'll be half way round the world before you even know I'm gone 
She said I'm moving on. 

Thank you :D
