Gabrielle Aplin - Let Me In

      This is my first tab. The original version of the song is no capo, but I've transposed it for simplicity. If you want to play it without a capo, you can just transpose it up five steps. It sounds for the most part correct, you may have to experiment with the timing and strumming.

Have fun!

Capo 5

Chords: G Em C D Am

Intro: G Em C x2


G                    Em
He doesn't make your knees weak,
      C
he's beautiful and bleak.
       G
He has a porcelain face,
     Em             C
that cracks when he speaks.
        D
I go to start a conversation but I,
Em
get no reply,
            D
instead you stare just like a statue
       G     D      Em
as I break down and cry.


C G Em C

     G             Em
Your face is like an eagle,
                        C
but your mind is like a crow.
        G               Am
and boy i know you have opinions,
        Em             C
but you don't let them show.
         G                   Em
You're a shelf of books with out the pages,
  G                                   Em
a wealth of thoughts locked up in cages.


C G Em C

      G                       Em
So if blood runs through your veins,
           G                      Em
don't you suppose it's such a waste
                       G
to be composed in such a way?
C
Just let me in...


G Em C

  C
Just let me in...


G Em C

G           
You write me letters
     Em
in a pen with no ink.
      C           G
and you have your own eyes,
        Em          C
but you don't dare blink.
C
You speak in words,
Em        Am
without a sentence.
           C          G
you're the ghost that haunts me,
             Em
without a presence...
C
without a presence
    Em
without a presence
      G                        Em
And if blood runs through your veins,
          C       G               Em
don't you suppose it's such a waste
       G                         C
to be composed in such a way?
C
Just let me in...

G Em

     C            G
Just let me in...

C G Am Em
