War In My Blood by Jon Foreman
War In My Blood
Capo:2nd fret
As you have probably already
the numbers for frets are in relation to the capo.
I’m calling the intro the MAIN PART because it’s used so frequently in the song,
you see (MAIN PART) that means this is being played. You’re probably going to
have to
to
song to get the rhythm of it.
e|--------------------------------------------|
B|----1---------1--------------1--------------|
G|-----------2------(0)--0(h2)---2p0----------|
D|-------0h3--------------(h3)----------------|
A|--3---------------(3)-----------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------|
If you can get this part, you can play like half the song.
The verse uses these chords but Jon fingerpicks them.
I have a girl she tastes like rain on my tongue

Verse 2 repeats the same guitar “licks” as before
My baby’s soft and sweet
Somewhere between a flower and a gun
And where my girl is now
Someday that's where I want to be from

And only one to fall in love

I know precisely what made her run
Her skin looked like the sky
Made my heart beat itself like a drum

When I meet her in my dreams
