      Stadnard Tuning, No Capo.

I find the strumming pattern to tbe hardest part of this song,
with some experimentation it seems an 
- UP, DOWN, UP, Palm Mute - 
pattern sounds best to my ears.
The strumming pattern is quite quick too ~160bpm.

I use the following chords for this song:

Am: 002210
G:  320001
F:  133211
Em: 022000
Dm: 000231

[Intro]
Am G 

[Verse 1]
Am 
 Someday I'll buy you flowers 
              G 
 Someday I'll buy you beads 
Am 
 I've been walking for hours 
              G 
 Can't seem to feel my feet. 

[Pre-Chorus]
Am 
 Didn't want to let you snap so 
 Spent six months in a cast, oh 
G 
 Just to be safe 
Am 
 Couldn't find the steering wheel, no 
 Drove on straight through the field, oh 
G 
 And in to the lake and 

[Chorus]
F 
 Fate 
                Em 
 Oh, I wouldn't believe in it 
      Dm                 Am 
 If I knew better than I do 
             F 
 It is too late 
                  Em 
 Oh, I keep on deceiving you 
          Dm               Am 
 And I'll always play the fool 
            Em 
 And it's a way for you to know 

Am G 

[Verse 2]
Am 
 Someday we'll sleep for hours 
              G 
 Someday I'll sell your things 
Am 
 Someday we'll trade our vows 
               G 
 And face what marriage brings 

[Pre-Chorus]

Am 
 Didn't want to let you snap so 
 Spent six months in a cast, oh 
G 
 Just to be safe. 
Am 
 Couldn't find the steering wheel, no 
 Drove on straight through the field, oh 
G 
 And in to lake 

[Chorus x 2]
 F 
 Fate 
                   Em 
 Oh, I wouldn't believe in it 
        Dm               Am 
 If I knew better than I do 
           F 
 It is too late 
                  Em 
 Oh, I keep on deceiving you 
          Dm               Am 
 And I'll always play the fool 

     F 
 And fate 
                   Em 
 Oh, I wouldn't believe in it 
        Dm               Am 
 If I knew better than I do 
           F 
 It is too late 
                  Em 
 Oh, I keep on deceiving you 
          Dm               Am 
 And I'll always play the fool 

[Outro]
            F           Em 
 And it's a way for my stomach to 
 F            Em 
 Taste what I give it 
 F           Em 
 Summer has faded 
 F           Em 
 Likeness has faded
 Em 
 Faded
