Puritan by Widowspeak
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Opening track from the band s 2011 self titled debut. Couldn t make out all the lyrics,
but I tried to write down what I could. I didn t bother tabbing some of the lead solo
stuff in the middle of the song, but these chords are correct.
Tuning: Standard
NOTE: E is the only chord in the song that is played open; the rest are all barre
chords, as indicated.

Four hour drive
Strange world outside
Shattered to see
The sun go down

Don t know ourselves
In this hollow town
Then play this:
(open) followed by â
/ AA
If you have two guitarists you can continue play this progression over the top of
the following verses (which just alternate between an E and A).
So charmed, the rich in power
Puritans had all the power
Show them how their eyes were blue
Tell me I ll stay with you
Always waiting
And you re fading, fading out
So I looked my Sunday best
Still inside a devil s dress
Tall, dark ... (?)
Like the time they stood (?)
I was looking
Puritans watching
I, I was watching, watching out
Resume / progression and end the song on the chord.
