Sensitive Man Nick Lowe
A delightful, easy song off Nick's latest album The Old Magic (2011).
Tabbed from live videos. Should be reasonably accurate!
Chords used:
E :076450 / 022100
A :577655 / x0222x
B :799877
C#m:x46654
F#m:244222
Nick uses the |076450| E chord almost the whole way through, shifting his pinky back and
forth between the 5th and 6th string to alternate between E and B as the bass note. The
chord also has the advantage of being in close proximity to the C#m and A chords.
After the first and third line of the chorus, Nick plays three strokes of A followed by
one stroke of F#m. Use your index finger to barre the second fret and, on the fourth
stroke, place your ring finger and pinky on the fourth fret of the 4th and 5th string
while using your thumb to play the F# bass note.
[E]Lately when I go to steal a k[C#m]iss
I f[E]eel you pulling aw[B]ay
I k[E]now something is a[A]miss
But what it [E]is, you won't s[B]ay
If I[A]'ve done something to upset ya
Bel[E]ieve me, that was never my p[A]lan
But h[E]ow can I fix it standing o[A]ut here in the cold?
I'm a sensitive m[E]an.
You d[E]on't always have to s[C#m]peak
You can s[E]ay it with a l[B]ook
E[E]ven across a crowded ro[A]om
I can r[E]ead it like a b[B]ook
But ot[A]her times, when there's something on your mind
M[E]ake it as plain as you c[A]an
Don't fr[E]eeze me baby, I'm no d[A]inky-doo
I'm a sensitive m[E]an.
|A A A F#m|
I'm a sensitive man
You can h[E]ear that in my s[A]ong
E |A A A F#m|
I'm a sensitive man
But f[F#m]irst impressions could steer you wr[E]ong.
E A E B x2
Sinc[A]erely, my one desire
Is to make you happy again
But I c[E]an't begin 'til you l[A]et me back in
I'm a sensitive m[E]an.
|A A A F#m|
I'm a sensitive man
You can h[E]ear that in my s[A]ong
E |A A A F#m|
I'm a sensitive man
Though f[F#m]irst impressions might well steer you w[E]rong.
S[E]ensitive man
(Out in the cold)
Trying to do good
(But so misunderstood)
Sensitive man
