Tokyo Lyrics
Intro: use which ever picking variation sounds best to you
OR
Verse 1: Intro picking + chords 00.31 - 00.52
I am neon
Cold neon
Not a mystery
All I've every known is
How to be alone
It comes naturally
Prechorus: Prechorus Picking + Bass notes - chords listed below are bass notes, 00.53 - 1.14
Oh baby, can I hold you?
Such a cold, cold night
I thought I wouldn't need to
I've got my neon lights
I'm longing just to feel you
To know that it's alright
Em Bm D F#\
Oh baby baby baby baby
Chorus: Groovy slap bass + strum chords(?) + maybe intro picking if you feel like it 1.15 - 1.41
I'm out of sight
I'm out of mind
Alone in Tokyo
You're out of reach
Wrong place, wrong time
Em F#m Bm <- let ring
Alone in Tokyo
Verse 2: Bass + piano + picking 1.42 - 2.02
Here I go again
To and fro again
Overnight delivery
Grew a thicker skin
But now it's wearing thin
You can see right into me
Prechorus: Prechorus Picking + Bass notes 2.03 - 2.24
Oh baby, can I hold you?
Such a cold, cold night
I thought I wouldn't need to
I've got my neon lights
I'm longing just to feel you
To know that it's alright
Em Bm D F#\
Oh baby baby baby baby
Chorus: Groovy slap bass + strum chords + maybe intro picking if you feel like it 2.25 - 3.08
I'm out of sight
I'm out of mind
Alone in Tokyo
You're out of reach
Wrong place, wrong time
Alone in Tokyo
I'm out of sight
Going out of my mind
Alone in Tokyo
You're out of reach
Wrong place, wrong time
Alone in Tokyo
-Solo Interlude/end- 3.09 - end
*I'm out of sight*
