               The Tide that Left and Never Came Back - The Veils
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by Slitterphiliac

This is based on insight gained from watching solo/acoustic sets by Finn on youtube.
He plays it in D with no capo, though the original recording was in E. I've transcribed 
the descending bassline in the intro/chorus, if you have a bassist handy get them to do it!
I haven't transcribed the second guitar part in the late verse/chorus/break.

Tuning: Standard, Capo 2 (all chords relative to capo)

Intro:                                                      (This part onwards is in the chorus too)
    D                     x2                         x2                   D/C#

Verse:
G                  A     F#m             G  x4
I´m sick from this city, it burns in my side
The ships that are leaving shine so bright in the night time
Though the memory's fade it's you that I find
If only you could stay and not leave me behind

Chorus:
    D          D/C#     D/B     Dsus2/A    G              A (Same as the second half of the intro) x5
The tide that left and never came back is on my mind tonight
Cause it´s a small town and it misses you my love
The tide that left and never came back is on my mind tonight
Cause it´s a small town and it misses you my love

Verse:
Don´t fall into all those sad stories you write
Your voice is so pretty when it gets caught in the right rhyme
And though the memories fade it´s still you that I find
If only you could stay and not leave me behind

Chorus:
The tide that left and never came back is on my mind tonight
Cause it's a small town it misses you my love

Break: Bm A G A (x 4)

Chorus:
The tide that left and never came back is on my mind tonight
Cause it's a small town it misses you my love
The tide that left and never came back is on my mind tonight
Cause it's a small town it misses you my love
It's a small town and it misses you my love
It's a small dead, broken town and it misses you my love
