Telescope Bo Bruce
Song: Telescope
Album: Before I Sleep (2013)
The verses are based around a couple of lead riffs with
the chords being implied by quite a busy bassline. I've
tabbed the lead parts out and will be working on a bass
tab over the next few days. Enjoy!

Verse 1: RIFF 1
Strike a pose in the foot of spotlight that you chose
Down the river, the roses and a pot of gold
Everybody they love you but what are you now
We just see what we want
Verse 2: RIFF 1
Pictures lie
We both know so
Go on, smile for the world
Take the light that you stole
Don't know you anymore
Break: RIFF 2
Chorus:
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/bo_bruce/telescope_crd.html )
Maybe [C#]if I [C/G#]had a [Eb]tele[F]scope
Then [C#]I could [C/G#]see what [Eb]my heart [F]won't
Maybe [C#]if (maybe if)
I [C/G#]had (I had)
A [Eb]teles[F]cope (A telescope)
Cos [Bb]these naked eyes
These naked eyes
Have gone blind
Verse 3: RIFF 1
And I thought I had smoked all of you out
But your walls and mirrors hit for more than I found
I'm ashamed to still want you cos who are you now
Don't know you anymore
Verse 4: RIFF 1
Scriptures lie
We both know and
From where I have been hanging I can't see a thing
From the gallows I sing
Break: RIFF 2
Chorus:
Maybe [C#]if I [C/G#]had a [Eb]tele[F]scope

Maybe [C#]if (maybe if)
I [C/G#]had (I had)
A [Eb]teles[F]cope (A telescope)
Cos [Bb]these naked eyes
These naked eyes
Have gone blind
