KT Tunstall Uummannaq Song Lyrics

KT Tunstall - Uummannaq song
I couldn't find a tab or chords for this incredible song of KT's new album,
so I decided to make one myself, with a little help from the KT Tunstall forum
(thanks to 'smash275').
For this song KT uses a 2-string guitar on which she actually just hits one note
each time (the bass note of course).
In the verse she hits each note and mutes it right after that.
This tab below is an indication of the tune she's playing.
I think B D E part is quite accurate, but I'm not sure about the B A G A and A A parts.
If anyone's got suggestions please comment.
In the verse and bridge she strums each note.
I prefer to just strum the entire song (on acoustic guitar) in the chords given below,
but since not everyone might agree I put this little tab together.
Hope you'll like it.
Enjoy!
Intro (synth):
Verse tune (2-string guitar)
Hold your fire
I'm coming out and I'll tell you the truth
I was trying to raise my roof
Did you see it
That I needed to prove
That my stinger always stays
You said she's beautiful when she plays
Did I hit you in the proper place
Suddenly
horus 1
I, oh well I could live in this town
Five cold years before I
Yes I could live in this town
Before I head for home
It's my turn
With the spotlight burning a hole
But my bird-heart's turning cold
As the temperature rises all around
To the sound of a ticking bomb
And then it's not just showing off here
You know there's something going on here
Going on here
Suddenly
horus 2
I, oh well I could live in this town
Five cold years before I
Yes I could live in this town
Five cold years
Yes I could live in this town
Five cold years before I
Well I could live in this town
Before I head for home
ridge
(mute)
And considered it odd
That I ever stayed
ever stayed
That I ever stayed
ever stayed
That I ever stayed
ever stayed
That I ever stayed
ever stayed
You know that feeling you get
when you don't want to leave
That feeling you get
when you don't want to leave
That feeling when you don't want to leave
Suddenly
horus 3
I, oh well I could live in this town
Five cold years before I
Yes I could live in this town
Five cold years
Yes I could live in this town
Five cold years before I
Well I could live in this town
Uummannaq
Uummannaq
Before I head for home
(mute)
And considered it odd
That I ever stayed
