This Lonely Place Lyrics

Hey, I looked around and this song didn't really have a good tab, so I
decided to post one. I like the song, it's not their best, but it's fun.
It's also not really hard to get a general gist of what is going on
yourself, but with the horns and organ and sitar it gets pretty jumbled at
times. Anyway, to make your life and mine (in the future when I forget this
song and want to relearn it) easier, here is what I got from it.
Before I start, props to whoever posted on guitaretab because they were
closest to the real deal and set me on the right path.
1 2 3 4 & 1 2 3 4 &
"1 2 3 4"
So the guitars basically just continue with the D riff above, but then
there's this melody over top of that some instrument is playing...
1 2 3 4 & 1 2 3 4 & 1 2 3 4 & 1 2 3 & 4 &
R 2 3 4 & 1 2 3 4 & 1 2 3 4 & 1 2 3 & 4 &
The "R" signifies that it is a held over beat from the previous measure, so
a rest of sorts, but you let it ring. Essentially, the & of the 4 beat in
the 4th measure is getting ahead of the beat of the song and then you sit on
it for a beat to get back in time.
The Main Riff
Generally, this will be the double upstrokes near the 2 and 4 beats of the
measure, it's syncopated behind the beat in a standard ska sort of way.
Listen to the song, it's not hard to figure out.
You come around to see your boy friend
You come around to feel pain
It was yesterday he tried to use you
F#m G (not needed, but helps the transition tonally)
but you still go through it a-
(this part is has a similar strum pattern to the intro, but it's angrier)
-gain you took it away
again you let yourself stay I-
-ve been around
this lonely place
lonely place before
I've been around
this lonely place
lonely place before
You find out he's been lying to you
You find he had another girl
But you never stand up for yourself
F#m G (again for tonal reasons)
you never stand up to h-
-im he takes it away
yeah you let yourself stay
yeah you gave it to him
You said it's the last time
he does it again cuz I-
(This time strum along, no after-beats)
-ve been around
this lonely place
lonely place before
I've been around
this lonely place
lonely place before
Now you got a choice
to leave your place
lonely place behind
be true to yourself
now and let it go
It's better than you think
(HORN SOLO!!!!!)After beats, go ska!
D - Em - F#m - G(X2) (or switch back to the intro melody to change things up
A little)
-im he takes it away
yeah you let yourself stay
yeah you gave it to him
You said it's the last time
he does it again cuz I-
(Strum again, get angry)
-ve been around
this lonely place
lonely place before
I've been around
this lonely place
lonely place before
Now you got a choice
to leave your place
lonely place behind
be true to yourself
now and let it go
It's better than you think
Cuz IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
-ve been around
this lonely place
lonely place before
I've been around
this lonely place
lonely place before
(then basically just work it like this till the end, there are some words,
but you can make ur own s**t up and be creative)
Wheeewh... I always get pumped up playing Goldfinger, so enjoy, if you find
a mistake or a better way to play it, be sure to leave comments. Other than
that enjoy... and remember to watch out for UFO's on tuesdays!
