The Shins - "Gone for Good" (live)
from Chutes Too Narrow

tune down 1/2 step

 [C]Untie me , I've set no bounds
The train is getting way too loud
I've gotta [F] leave here, my girl,
(To) Get on with my [C] lonely life
Just leave the [G] ring on the rail
For the ... ? ... to find(?) [C]

[C]Until this turn in my head
(I'll) let you stay and you'll pay no rent
I've spent [F]twelve long months on the lam
[C]That's enough [G]sitting on the fence
For the fear of [C]breaking down

[Am] I find a fatal[C] flaw in the [F] logic of love
And go [C] outta my [Am] head
[Am] You know the [C] sinking stone
That'll [F] never elope
So get [C] used to the [G] lonesome, girl
[C] You must [G] atone some, girl
[C] Leave me no [G] phone number [F] there

la-de-dum etc. [C]
solo

[C]It took me all of a year
To put the poison pill to your ear
But now I [F]stand on honest ground, on honest ground

[G] You wanna fight for this love,
But honey you [F] cannot wrestle a dove (?)
So baby it's clear [C] 

[Am]You wanna jump [C]and dance
But you[F] sat on your hands
And lost [C]your only chance[Am]
[Am]Go back to [C]your hometown
Get your [F]feet on the ground
And stop [C]****ing around[Am]

[Am] I find a fatal[C] flaw in the [F] logic of love
And go [C] outta my [Am] head
[Am] You know the [C] sinking stone
That'll [F] never elope
So get [C] used to the [G] lonesome, girl
[C] You must [G] atone some, girl
[C] Leave me no [G] phone number [F] there
 
The sun is way too clear

End C


If there are any corrections, feel free to do so, but im pretty sure most of it is right. Thanks to Tom Haas for the orginal
transciption, but since the version i have is in a different key, i had to change all of the chords.

I noticed that the song seems to be with a capo on the third fret and there's a walk down between the G and the Em in the chorus. Other than that, it's a great tab.

I'd like to take back the little walk down thing. The tab says Am not Em so it's between that.

Your lyrics are terrible!





Untie me i've said no vows, the train is getting way too loud I've gotta leave here my girl, and get on with my lonely life. Just leave the ring on the rail for the wheels to nullify.





Until this turn in my head, I let you stay, but you paid no rent, I spent twelve long months on the lam. That's enough sitting on the fence, for the fear or breaking DAMS.





I found a fatal flaw in the logic of love and go out of my head..you love a sinking stone that'll never elope, so get used to the lonesome girl, you must atone some, DON'T leave me not phone number there laddee da.





It took me all of a year, to put the poison pill to your ear but now I stand on honest ground, on honest ground. You wanna fight for this love, but honey you cannot wrestly a dove. So baby it's clear...you want to jump and dance, but you sat on hands and lost your only chance...go back to your hometown, get your feet on the ground and stop FLOATING!!! FLOATING!!! around...not ****ing!





I found a fatal flaw in the logic of love and go out of my head..you love a sinking stone that'll never elope, so get used to the lonesome girl, you must atone some, DON'T leave me not phone number there
