Electrical Storm
tabbed by {phlikone}

I looked at some of the other tabs and they just seem to be off to me. This is what I
hear, it works fine with open chords or barred. I put a few alternatives for you to
experiment with. I am a solo acoustic guitarists...so I don't have the lead part, but
other tab versions might have it. Please give a good rating, Thanks! 

Chords 
   F#m   A   E  or  E   B   D  or  D  C#m  0r C#m
e|--0----0---0------7---0---0------5---0-------4---|
B|--0----0---0------9---0---0------7---0-------5---|
G|--2----6---1------9---8---11-----7---9-------6---|
D|--4----7---2------9---9---12-----7---11------6---|
A|--4----7---2------7---9---12-----5---11------4---|
E|--2----5---0------7---7---10-----5---9-------4---|
note: I make an open E chord and use my thumb for F#m, A, B, D, and C#m.
The rhythm is pretty tough to figure out, just get use to the song and you'll get it.

Intro: F#m  A   B

Verse: 

F#m         A      B           F#m
 The sea it swells like a sore head
                    A     B
and the night it is aching
F#m         A        B                  F#m
 Two lovers lie with no sheets on their bed
                  A       B
and the day it is breaking 

F#m       A       B           F#m
 On rainy days we go swimming out
          A         B           F#m
 on rainy days, swimming in the sound
          A       B
 On rainy days we go swimming out 

D             E            C#m
 You're in my mind all the time
              D
I know that's not enough
               E
if the sky can crack
                       C#m
there must be some way back
             D
for love and only love 

F#m  A   B

F#m              A       B    
 Car alarm won't let you back to sleep
F#m                A            B          F#m
 you're kept awake dreaming someone else's dream
                A           B         
coffee is cold, but it will get you through
F#m                 A       B       
compromise, that's nothing new to you
F#m        A                 B          F#m
 let's see colours that have never been seen

              A           B          D
let's go to places no one else has been
 
D             E           C#m
 You're in my mind allthe time
              D
I know that's not enough
               E
if the sky can crack
                       C#m
there must be some way back
             D
for love and only love
 

Chorus:

     Electrical Storm
D E  F#m        A - B 
     Electrical Storm

Baby don't cry 

Intro: F#m  A   B  (2x)

F#m                A             B       
 It's hot as hell, honey in this room

F#m                         A     B       
 sure hope the weather will break soon

F#m                A           B       
 the air is heavy, heavy as a truck
F#m                 A             B       
 hope the rain will wash away our bad luck 

D  E  C#m  D 
heeeey... heeeey..... 

D               E                             C#m      
 If the sky can crack, there must be some way back

for love and only love

ELECTRICAL STORM (EASY VERSION)
tabbed by {Phlikone}

I'm going to put an "easy" version...I figured it out last night, these are basic chords
but played with a capo on two. These are the same "notes" as in the above version, just
easier to play for those, like me, struggle sometimes. So I hope this will help those who
are just learning...Don't forget to rate! Thanks.

Fm - A - E - A/E? - E

The sea is swells like a sore head
and the night it is aching
Two lovers lie with no sheets on their bed
and the day it is breaking

On rainy days we go swimming out
on rainy days, swimming in the sound
On rainy days we go swimming out

You're in my mind all of the time
I know that's not enough
if the sky can crack
there must be some way back
for love and only love

Car alarm ? and back to sleep
you kept awake dreaming some else's dream
coffee is cold, but it will get you through
compromise, there's nothing new to you
let's see colours that have never been seen
let's go to places no one else has been

You're in my mind all of the time
I know that's not enough
if the sky can crack
there must be some way back
to love and only love

Electrical Storm
Electrical Storm
Electrical Storm
Baby don't cry

It's hot as hell, honey in this room
sure hope the weather will break soon
the air is heavy, heavy as a truck
hope the rain will wash away our bad luck

heeeey... heeeey.....

If the sky can crack, there must be some way back
for love and only love
