VERSE 1
[G]
Shakin' up is all that we know
[F]
Usin' our bodies up as we go
[G]
I'm wakin' up to a fantasy
[F]
The shades all around aren't the colors we used to see

Broken ice still melts in the sun

[Cadd9] [G/B] [Amin](open)
We're soul alone, and soul really matters to me
[F]
Take a look around
CHORUS 1
[F]
You're out of touch
Amin(add11)/D [G]
I'm out of time
[Amin] [G6] [Fmaj7] [E]
But I'm out of my head when you're not around
[F]
You're out of touch
Amin(add11)/D [G]
I'm out of time
[Amin] [G] [Amin] [G]
But I'm out of my head when you're not around
[F] [Amin](add11)/D [G] Amin
VERSE 2
[G]
Reachin' out for something to hold
[F]
Lookin' for a love where the climate is cold
[G]
Manic moves, and drowsy dreams
[F]
Or (We're) livin' in the middle between the two extremes

[Cadd9] [G/B] [Amin](open)
Smokin' guns, hot to the touch
[F] [G]
Would cool down if we didn't use 'em so much

[Cadd9] [G/B] [Amin](open)
We're soul alone, and soul really matters to me
[F]
Too much
CHORUS 2
[F]
You're out of touch
Amin(add11)/D [G]
I'm out of time
[Amin] [G6] [Fmaj7] [E]
But I'm out of my head when you're not around
[F]
You're out of touch
Amin(add11)/D [G]
I'm out of time
[Amin] [G] [Amin] [G]
But I'm out of my head when you're not around
[F]
Ooh
Amin(add11)/D [G]
Oh-woh-oh
[Amin] [G6] [Fmaj7] [E]
Oh-woh-oh (ooooooooooooo. . .)
[F]
Ooh
Amin(add11)/D [G]
Oh-woh-oh (ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh, that's right . . .)
[BRIDGE] Key change here - play the following chord progression as Daryl freestyles and
T-Bone shows off...
[D] [Dm7] [D] [Dm7] [D]
[Dm7]
[CHORUS 3] The band sings the third chorus a cappela, clapping out the beat - there's a
short break right before "FINAL CHORUS" (after the band sings their last "you're out of
touch" in "CHORUS 3"), where they strum out . . .
[E] [E] [E] [E] . . . about 12 times
and then . . .
[FINAL CHORUS]
[F]
You're out of touch
Amin(add11)/D [G]
I'm out of time
[Amin] [G6] [Fmaj7] [E]
But I'm out of my head when you're not around
[F]
You're out of touch
Amin(add11)/D [G]
I'm out of time
[Amin] [G] [Amin] [G]
But I'm out of my head when you're not around . . .
Repeat this progression over and over again as Daryl freestyles, and when the song
finally comes to and end, bang out an "Amin" as the closing chord.
NOTE: If some of this tablature seems unclear (i.e. the rhythm, the timing, the
transitions, the ending, etc.), just listen to the song - it should be pretty self-explanatory.
Also, feel free to replace "Amin(add11)/D" with a basic "Dm" if it sounds better.
This tab should also work fairly well with the studio recording.
