This is kind of a lounge-act song with a fairly slow tempo
(about 150 beats per minute). I play all the chords as bar chords
so I can mute the strings and get the rhythmic stacatto sound.
Just so ya know, this is a CM7/C chord (and I'm fairly certain
it's called CM7/C):

If you see me in the pouring rain,
GM CM7/C
No I'm never coming back again
FM EM AM
For you, my beloved Chanel
AM dm7
Walk along my dear hand in hand,
GM C
No not a tear not a grain of sand
FM EM AM
For you, my beloved Chanel

Dancin on the moonlit sky, glancin in each others' eye
CM
Oh, my heart does swell.
DM
Believe me when I say to you
GM
You really ring my bell.
Walking in the park the other day
My heart skipped as I heard him say
For you, my beloved Chanel.
Crying screaming ranting raving mad.
If you were dead, boy would I be glad
For you, my beloved Chanel.
Dancin on the moonlit sky, glancin in each others' eye
Oh, my heart does swell.
Belive me when I say to you
Go right to hell.
Solo: (rhythm guitar plays verse part)
--> By the by, if you happen to notice, this transcript-
ion is far from perfect. I did the best I could, but
sadly, I can't compete with Jason Bieler. The solo is
based on an A blues scale if that helps any.

Dancin on the moonlit sky, glancin in each others' eye
Oh, my heart does swell.
Believe me when I say to you
You really ring my bell.
Laughin as your grave is built,
Not an ounce of shame or guilt
For you, my beloved Chanel.
I never cried, I never could.
All the blame will do no good
For you, my beloved Chanel.
For you, my beloved Chanel.
For you, my beloved Chanel.
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 SAIGON KICK 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.
