This is my interpretation of the chords of this beautiful Weepies song. This tab contains two
versions. One in standard tuning and one in open D tuning. The standard one works, but I think the
open D one is closer to the way Deb plays it live.

Tuning: Standard (EADGBE)
No Capo.
Strumming pattern: dd/udu
[Verse 1]

I thought they Gmmight be calling Cout for you, for Fme
BbmI hear their voices, sirens Amcalling out emergency
Gmfor you, for Cme, for you, for Dmyou, for you
for Cyou, for you, for Bbyou, for me
C
[Verse 2]
FHere lies the Ambody of a captain
Bbfoundered in the waves Ccollected by the sirens
FOh, wise Amwomen of the sun
BbOh, what have you done
Csave this frail one left by Poseidon
[Chorus]
BbmI hear their voices, sirens Amsinging in the street
I thought they Gmmight be calling Cout for you, for Fme

OPEN D TUNING
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------__
After watching some live videos I noticed Deb doesn't use the standard tuning I did in my other tab.
Even though I still think that tab works I decided to upload an alternate version in open D tuning.
The song contains 2 basic chord shapes that I will call the major and minor shapes for simplicity.
The actual chord names are much more complicated but I feel using them will only make the tab unclear.
All chord shapes are relative to capo.
Tuning: Open D (DADF#AD)
