OH, IT IS LOVE - HelloGoodBye
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: tguk27dewees
Tuning: Standard
You're going to have to figure out your own strumming pattern and listen for the
arpeggiated notes. Not too difficult, is it? So...yeah. The boys have yet to
record this song for their upcoming album, but they played it at Truckstops and
Statelines and Jesse Kurvic himself told me it was on the DVD, so I decided to
tab it. Because I love it. And tomorrow is Valentine's Day. And I'm cliche.
And Forrest doesn't use full chords because he's just that cool.
INTRO/FIRST VERSE: PRE-CHORUS:
e|--3--5--7--8--------7--5--7--5-----|
B|--3--5--7--8--------7--5--7--5-----|
G|--4--5--7--9--------7--5--7--5-----|
D|--5--7--9--10-------9--7--9--7-----|
A|--x--7--9--x--------9--7--9--7-----|
E|--x--x--x--x--------x--x--x--x-----|
The chorus is the same as the INTRO/FIRST VERSE, just with a more staccato
strumming style.
BRIDGE: SECOND VERSE:
e|--10--8--3--5---8--7----3--10--9--8---11-----|
B|--10--8--3--5---8--7----3--10--9--8---11-----|
G|--11--9--4--5---9--7----4--11--10-9---11-----|
D|--12--10-5--7---10-9----5--12--11-10--13-----|
A|--x---x--x--7---x--9----x--x---x--x---13-----|
E|--x---x--x--x---x--x----x--x---x--x---x------|
^It gets a little iffy here in the BRIDGE....
Order:
INTRO/FIRST VERSE
SECOND VERSE
PRE-CHORUS
CHORUS
SECOND VERSE
CHORUS
BRIDGE
And then they kinda flirt back and forth between the CHORUS and the PRE-CHORUS,
introducing the rest of the band to finish the song and whatnot.
I apologize for the fact that the names of each section may be a little off and
the order in which the progressions themselves were typed is just, like...whoa.
But it should all be correct, so don't complain.
Have fun with this song - it's inevitable.

| desire! i'm not sure if the inch/mile thing is literal, even though it does say distance afterward. the girl wanted out of the relationship because she wasn't feelin him and now he's saying that he wants her love, and he realizes that no matter how hard they try, there's always distance | |

| i love this song. its great. i think its just about how much he loves this girl, but she maybe doesnt feel the same way. "all of your love, is all that i needed" he just wants her to love him like he loves her.. | |

| I think HelloGoodBye is my new favorite band! Their mix of genre is like god to me. I think the stores would call it pop rock, but I don't consider it that. It's a totally new genre to me! P.s. Hella-My favorite word. | |

| First of all, this is a great song. As far as the meaning goes, I think that the guy is trying really hard in the relationship because he needs the girl, but she doesn't seem to care as much for him as he does for her. | |

| So goofy and sweet. EXACTLY how I feel about my boyfriend, to the word. 'Oh dear, its been hardly three days yet I'm longing to feel your embrace, There are several days yet until I can see your sweet face. Oh say, wouldn't you like to be older and married with me? Oh say, wouldn't it be nice to know right now that we'll be, some day, holding hands in the end?' | |

| theres no EP version. that was just a demo. but yeah they basically went back and fixed all of their songs cause they all sound different from their originals. they had to do something tho, all their fans had already heard like every song on their new CD before it was even released. haha i think they only had like 3 songs that not everyone REALLY heard. anyways its an awesome song. and their cd is amazing. hellogoodbye owns my heart. | |

| I think this song is pretty self-explainatory. A boy and a girl separated by distance and are getting kind of suffocated by all the pressure and loneliness it's creating. The girl is getting tired of it and is ready to make a break for it and the boy is trying to get her to just understand and make her want to be with him still. | |

| This song is so romantic in a cheesy way. It's about him having to leave his girlfriend (Possibly for touring?) and him missing her, but all the meanwhile, thinking about how much he loves her. | |
