CITIZEN ERASED - Muse

Tabbed by: Ledcraft

Notes: This tab is mostly for singers who want to play this song and accompany themselves.
The real guitar part to the song doesn't sound good without all the bass and synth and stuff;
this is just an approximation. It sounds good, though.
I submitted this because the other version of the chords for this song is really awful,
nothing like it should...
INTRO - Again, this is an approximation.

VERSE - Matt just plays the intro through this part of the song. This way sounds a lot
solo.

Break me in, teach us to cheat
AmGFE7
And to lie, cover up what shouldn't be shared
AmGFE7
All the truth unwinding, scraping away
AmGFE7
At my mind, please stop asking me to describe him
CHORUS - Run through the chords once before singing. GL on the falsetto, =)

For one moment, I wish you'd
FCE7
Hold your stage with no feelings at all
FCEAmG
Open minded I'm sure I used
FCE7
To be so free
VERSE (the same) - I usually play the intro again before going into the second verse.
Self expressed, exhausting for all
To see and to be what you want and what you need
The truth unwinding, scraping away
At my mind, please stop asking me to describe
CHORUS (the same)
INTERLUDE - Move this shape up and down the neck.
You can omit this part if you want (it does sound kinda thin on acoustic) and just play
intro again.
