Capo on 3rd fret
	        
Standard tuning w   
 
All chords are relative to capo 

***Please read*** 

The F chord Afie uses is a Fmaj7  In the tab I kept it as a regular F so I could place the chords at the exact 
timings for the chord changes  

Fmaj7 
e|--0--| 
B|--1--| 
G|--2--| 
D|--3--| 
A|--x--| 
E|--1--| 

Also, for the 'choir section' I tried to figure out the progression and I think it's pretty accurate  
However, if you can decipher what Em-like chord Afie ends on  I've looked at The Wild Honey 
Pie's Buzzsession at https://www youtube com/watch?v=qoi_xdke_Kk and it looks like a Em open chord with the A 
string open  But, I don't think it sounds 100 % similar  If you know the correct chord, please throw a comment

      Dm                                  F 
And I held the breath inside my lungs for days 
      Dm                           F 
And I saw myself as one of many waves 
        A#                              Gm       F      Dm    F 
When I knew that I'd become the ocean's slave I just stayed 


       Dm                                F 
And we carried forward all the water's past 
       Dm                             F 
Of the waves I was not first I was not last 
       A#                              Gm     F   Dm   D7 
If we saw a boat afloat we'd take the mast, so fast 


          A#                F     C 
Where's a part of it that I miss 
       A#                 F    C 
At the heart of it your cold kiss 
         A#            F          C 
From the start of it I know this 
               A# 
Oh where's the part of it

A# Gm F Dm F 


      Dm                                  F 
And before too long the waves grew out of hand 
         Dm                                 F      
And they worked to keep the sea at their command 
        A#                                    Gm       F     Dm   D7 
And the only thing they feared it seemed the sand, the dry land 



          A#                F     C 
There's a part of it that I miss 
       A#                 F    C 
At the heart of it your cold kiss 
         A#            F          C 
From the start of it I know this 
               A# 
Oh where's the part of it

Dm   F 


         Dm                               F 
From the water there was born a bright blue roar 
      Dm                                         F 
As it rolled and formed and calmed the ocean's floor 
            A#                              Gm     F   Dm  D7 
And then it finally rose and broke upon the shore no more 


          A#                F     C 
There's a part of it that I miss 
       A#                 F    C 
At the heart of it your cold kiss 
         A#            F          C 
From the start of it I know this 
               A# 
Oh where's the part of it 


          A#                F     C 
There's a part of it that I miss 
       A#                 F    C 
At the heart of it your cold kiss 
         A#            F          C 
From the start of it I know this 
               A# 
Oh where's the part of it 


               A# 
Oh where's the part of it 

Dm   F
