 INXS - Never Tear Us Apart
 Acoustic Version
 /////////////////////////////////////////////////// 
  
 I have extended the introduction. The first half
 should have a feel of the strings section, the second
 half should have a palm muting powerful strum to really
 drive the rhythm home. Play to a copy of the song to get
 the feel.
 
 Solo - the basic notes are tabbed... I suggest playing over
 the notes and giving your own timing and feel to it. Again
 play along to the music to get the timing.
 
 Break - at the break hold silence, then add the riff, then at
 the final play of A (6th string, 5th fret) thump your palm on
 the bottom of your acoustic to give the drum beat leading into
 the next verse.
 
 Any and all queries / corrections and improvements are more than
 
 Enjoy this powerful song!

       Am               F           
 Don't ask me, what you know is true
               Dm          F                       
 Don't have to tell you, I love your precious heart

 I was standing

 You were there
            C       F 
 Two worlds collided
                G                  
 And they could never tear us apart

          Am         F             
 We could live for a thousand years
          Dm            F                        
 But if I hurt you, I'd make wine from your tears
   Am            F           
 I told you that we could fly
          Dm                 F                        
 Cause we all have wings but some of us don't know why

 And they could never, ever, tear us apart
