Subject: TAB: 'Leave it Alone' by 'Moist'

Song: Leave It Alone
Artist: Moist
Album: Creature

I sure as heck ain't no Moist fan, but this is an amazing tune. Here's my go at it. I'm new at this guitar thing, so gimme a break when I say I don't know all of the chord names (I used numbers instead).

E: 022100
D: X00232
A: X03330

I don't know what these chords are called:
1: X46644
2: X24422
3: 466444
4: 577655


E D
I'd walk the water to get back to you
A E
and where I was complete
E D
we found you scattered by the highway side
A E
too soon to be released
E D
gathered the pieces up and clean the places
A E
where you were undone
E
and washed the wreckage out unfinished all
D A
the thoughts that we'd begun

Chorus:
1 2 3
I came to burn the sky and tear away
4 1
the beauty that it sows
1 2 3
if I could rape the day and find the things I
4
thought I'd always known
1 2 3
leave it alone again tonight
3 4 1
leave it alone again tonight
1 2 3
leave it alone again tonight
3 4 1
leave it alone again tonight

Verse:
I laid your arms out long untwisted there
and shaped what I could find
unmade the most of it then left the rest
the parts unrecognized
my reconstruction was the only way
for one last look at you
I lost the sense of it the absolution
that we never knew

Chorus chords:
leave it alone again tonight
leave it alone again tonight
and it takes me back from this place here
it takes me back from this place here

Bridge: E, C/G, G (minus the low E), D

Chorus

Chorus chords:
and it takes me back from this place here
from this place here it takes me over
and it might be lost in this place here
from this place here it takes me on
tonight leave it alone

listen to the record for the timing. Lates, Money!
