Sad Song by Noel Gallagher
This is the bonus track on the vinyl version of Definitley Maybe, but I`ve
never actually heard that version. I heard it played on Oasis` appearance
on Channel 4`s `The White Room` and on the `Live by the Sea` video.
The version I have `tabbed` is the version played on `The White Room`,
Noel Gallagher seems to play about with it quite alot, but this is the
meat(?) of the song.
Note:
In the intro the strums in-between the single note picking is not
really as precise as it is tabbed and isn`t played very loudly.

Am C
Sing a sad song in a lonely place,
Dsus2 E G
And try to put a word in for me,
Am C
It`s been so long since I found a space,
Dsus2 E G
You`d better put in two or three,
Am C
We as people are just walking round,
Dsus2 E G
Our heads are firmly fixed in the ground,
Am C
What we don`t see, well it can`t be real,
Dsus2 E G
What we don`t touch we cannot feel.
Pre Chorus

C G
Where we`re livin` in this town,
Am C
The sun is coming up and it`s going down,
C G D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
But it`s all just the same at the end of the day,
Am G
And we cheat and we lie,
Am G
Nobody says it`s wrong so we don`t ask why,
Am G D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
`Cos it`s all just the same at the end of the day.

***** Play Intro **************
Am C
If you`re needing something I can give,
Dsus2 E G
I`ll try and help you if I can,
Am C
If you`re honest and you say you did,
Dsus2 E G
You know that I would give you my hand,
Am C
Or a sad song in a lonely place,
Dsus2 E G
I`ll try and put a word in for you,
Am C
You need a shoulder? Well if that`s the case,
Dsus2 E G
There isn`t nothing I wouldn`t do.
