Verse:
Am                         Em
I remember tears streaming down your face
         Cmaj7                  G
When I said, I'll never let you go
Am                     Em                  Cmaj7    G
When all those shadows almost killed your light
Am          Em             Cmaj7          G 
I remember you said, Don't leave me here alone
Am                      Em              Cmaj7
But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight

Chorus:
Cmaj7              G
Just close your eyes
     D             Cmaj7
The sun is going down
             G
You'll be alright
    D              Cmaj7
No one can hurt you now
              G
Come morning light
D           Cmaj7     D   Cmaj7
You and I'll be safe and sound

Verse:
Am                   Em              Cmaj7
Don't you dare look out your window darling
                G
everything's on fire
Am                   Em               Cmaj7     G
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Am     Em      Cmaj7   G 
Hold onto this lullaby
Am     Em            Cmaj7
Even when the music's gone
Cmaj7
Gone

Chorus:
Cmaj7              G
Just close your eyes
     D             Cmaj7
The sun is going down
             G
You'll be alright
    D              Cmaj7
No one can hurt you now
              G
Come morning light
D           Cmaj7     D   Cmaj7
You and I'll be safe and sound

Bridge:
Cmaj7   Em
Ooh Ooh
Cmaj7   Em
Oh Oh

Ooh Ooh
Cmaj7   Em
Oh Oh

Chorus:
Cmaj7             G   D
Just close your eyes
Cmaj7         G   D
You'll be alright
Cmaj7          G    D
Come morning light,
D               Cmaj7  D     Cmaj7
You and I'll be safe and sound

You wanna know what I changed, that I think sounds a bit better? I changed the last Cmaj7 at the end of the chorus to an Am. Not that the Cmaj7 was bad, but I wanted to add something extra in there

In case you were wondering (since I found the starting note difficult to find), I’m pretty sure the vocals start on the 2nd fret of the A string (on a B)

I played the cmaj7 as am and I think it sounded really good. But just cmaj7 with standard tuning does not sound right. Other than that I really like the tab!

This is a really nice tab and beautifully done. I would suggest C in place of cmaj7. It fits MUCH better. Give it a try!

  Hi Maxx. put your first finger on the G string 2nd fret, your 2nd finger on the A string 2nd fret, and 3rd finger on the A string 3rd fret. Now play the strings G then E then A…But when you play the A string, pluck it then pull your 3rd finger off immediately. That is what they mean by pull off. Now make an Em shape and play the strings C then E the A. now for the last segment. Put your first finger on the second fret of the C string and when you pluck it slam your third finger down onto the 4th fret immediately. That is what a hammer on is. Now play that 4th fret one more time and then put your 3rd finger on the 2nd fret of the E string then play the 4th fret of the C string again. Now play a G chord twice. Hope this helps!

Hahaha this is awesome… Love the chords but should the Cmaj7 be a C? But either way, I loved it… Hahaa this is great, sounds exactly like the original!

I found it sort of difficult to pull out the starting note, so just FYI the starting note for singing is the second fret on the A string

For me the tab sounds wrong, along with the ones from the comments, is it just me?
