The Door chords

The Door

• Am7

Brilliant 'new' song that may appear on 'Blackhole', as played on the European dates of his 2014 tour - not a 

tab from any studio recording, as none are (currently) publicly available!


Fairly confident the E in the verse is an Em7.


Also hard to be sure from the live recordings if the D in the pre-chorus is a D or a Dsus2. 

The D in the verse is like C chord shape but moved up 2 frets - technically an Em9 with no 5th!! - see the 

chords below.

Intro: 


Bm G6  Asus4 


VERSE:


Em7                     Cadd9
Her hands make a sign

              Em9
She holds her face as she cries

Em7                       Cadd9
The suns starting to die

                                    D
Its fading out here all of the time


Pre-CHORUS


             Am7 (Riff 1)
Now we are old

D
   This light

                 Am7 (Riff 1)
Please leave it on


CHORUS


Bm G6 Asus4
        We were so happy before

Bm G6 Asus4
        We could be happy everymore

Bm G6 Asus4                      Em
        Now we just stare at the door


VERSE


Em7                       Cadd9
Upstairs in her room

              Em9
The light is flashing through the grates

Em7                       Cadd9
And the glass she consumes

                                D
Til' she's like somebody else


Pre-CHORUS


            Am7 (Riff 1)
Now we are old

D
   This light

     E7
This light...


CHORUS


Bm G6 Asus4
        We were so happy before

Bm G6 Asus4
        We could be happy everymore

Bm G6 Asus4                      Em
        Now we just stare at the door


Bm   G6   Asus4
My love     We were so happy before

Bm G6 Asus4
        We could be happy everymore

Bm G6 Asus4                      Em
        Now we just stare at the door



Repeat chorus during falceto part



End on Bm, G6, Asus4


May be some changes needed but overall sounds about right...!
