All chords are barred, unless tabbed out (well, the E/Em's are open)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Time after [E]time
You will for[G#m]give me
Like an [G]animal in your [B]care
But give it [E]time
You will out[G#m]live me
And take the [G]bow back you put in my [B]hair
Made a [E]parade of myself in the [G#m]street outside your house
For the [G]New York photographer [B]there
I fell for [E]crime and I fell for [G#m]beauty
I fell for [G]you because you're the only one that [B]cared
------------------------------------------
And when I [C]die
You can put on [G]costumes
In the [Em]style of the clothes I wore
And sing the [C]songs your lover [G]taught you
When you were too [Em]young to know that this was [E]what they were for.
[Over top of tbis la la la part a guitar comes in...]
e|-----------------------|-----------------------| B|-----------------------|-----------------------| G|--9--7--4--2--2-4-2----|---9--7--2-4--2-4-2----| D|--------------------0--|--9-----------------0--| A|-----------------------|-----------------------| E|-----------------------|-----------------------|
La la la [C]la. La la la [G#m]la. lala[Em]la [x2... second time transition from Em to E]
------------------------------
[For this part, a second guitar picks around the chords played by the main
guitar, with a prominent picking of:
e|---------| B|---------| G|--6-6-4--| D|---------| A|---------| E|---------|
Right at "toasts you made"]
Like some dead [E]relative
You will re[G#m]member me most by my [G]funeral
And all the [B]beautiful toasts you ma[E]de
Take back the [G#m]spade
We've both been [G]filling up our days like we were [B]filling in a grave

[PIANO INTERLUDE]
Guitar 1 kinda starts scratching along near the end of this interlude
Then...
Guitar 1 End
e|--------------------3-3-2-2--| B|--------------------3-3-3-3--| G|--4-4-4-4--7-7-7-7--0-0-2-2--| D|--------------------0-0-0-0--| x6 A|--2-2-2-2--5-5-5-5--2-2------| E|--------------------3-3------|
Guitar 2 End
e|--------------------------------| B|--/12---10---7-10-7-------------| G|--------------------7-7/9--7----| x9 D|-----------------------------7--| A|--------------------------------| E|--------------------------------|
It also sounds as if Guitar 2 slides down to 2 on the G
at the end of the riff sometimes, instead of playing the
A note on the D
Guitar 3 plays overtop on the 4th time Guitar 1 plays
There is some improvisation with the riff as Dan repeats it...
Guitar 3 End

End backing riff (this is then followed by chords, which are
marked with the lyrics):
e|------------------------------| B|------------------------------| G|--4--4--4--4-4-6--7--7--7--7--| D|------------------------------| A|--2--2--2--2-2-4--5--5--5--5--| E|------------------------------|
[Riff]
You let me hang, hang, hang around
[G] You put your [D]ribbons in my hair
[Riff]
It's in this language that I found
I am an [G]animal [D]in your care

I am an [B]animal in your care
