Verse 1:
D Dx D Dx
Babe it's time, To tell me that it's over.
D C G Dx
Tell me that it's over, It's plain to see.
D Dx D Dx
And this time, We won't be starting over.
D C G
No crying on your shoulder,
Dx
Into the heart shaped sea.

Oh, you've been (a) running from my door,
Am C
And you've been enchanted by
G Dx
the gracious voice of love.
Verse 2:
D Dx D Dx
Babe it's time, To look me in the eyes.
D C G Dx
Time to say goodbye, It's clear to me.
D Dx D Dx
And this time, I won't let you down.
D C G Dx
You can turn around, I'll set you free.
Chorus b:
Am C D
Oh, you've been (a) sailing from my shore,
Am C
And you've been enchanted by
G Dx
some-one from a far.
Verse 3:
D Dx D Dx
Babe it's time, To gather all the harvest.
D C G
To pray before the winter,
Dx
and sail the heart shaped sea.
Chorus a:
Am C D
Oh, you've been (a) running from my door,
Am C
And you've been enchanted by
G Dx
the gracious voice of love.

Dx should be played as follows:
Dx:
0-IIIIII IIIIII IIIIII IIIIII
III*I* III*I* III*II III*I*
IIII*I IIII** IIII*I IIII*I
2x 2x 2x 1x
So you strum the normal D chord twice, then add the g-note and
strum twice, then release the e-string altogether and finally
you return to the normal D chord.
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official ROXETTE tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
