Torn - Natalie Imbruglia -----------------------------
*Single Version*
[Transcribed by TNT SHWE]
Notes:
Play the rhythm acoustically and the lead section (reminiscent of the lead sections from James' "She's A Star") in the Coda electrically. I could tell you what the settings are, but since all amps differ, it would be a better idea to go and tra in yourself to find these settings yourself! The chords in brackets are the transition chords and are played for a much shorter period than the chords out of brackets. Transition chords are used to "musically fuse" two chords together!
Recommended Chord Positions:
Am xO221O Bb x13331 C x32O1O Dm xxO231 F 133211 Gm 355333
Intro:
F Bb F Gm
Verse 1:
F Am I thought I saw a man brought to life
Bb He was warm, he came around like he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry
F Am Well you couldn't be that man I adored
You don't seem to know
Bb Don't seem to care what your heart is for
But I don't know him anymore
Pre Chorus 1:
Dm There's nothing where he used to lie
C My conversation has run dry
Am That's what's going on
C Nothing's fine
F I'm torn
Chorus 1:
(F) C Dm I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
Bb F I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor
C Dm Illusion never changed, into something real
Bb F I'm wide awake and I can see, the perfect sky is torn
C Dm (C) Bb You're a little late, I'm already torn
Verse 2:
F Am So I guess the fortune teller's right
Bb I should have seen just what was there and not some holy light
But you crawl beneath my veins and now
Pre Chorus 2:
(Same chords and rhythm as Pre Chorus 1)
I don't care, I have no luck
I don't miss it all that much
There's just so many things
That I can't touch
I'm torn
Chorus 2:
(Same as Chorus 1)
Bridge:
Dm (C) Bb Dm F C Torn... Ooooh... Hoo ooooh... Ooooh
Pre Chorus 3:
(Same chords and rhythm as Pre Choruses 1 and 2)
There's nothing where he used to lie
My inspiration has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's right
I'm torn
Chorus 3:
(F) C Dm I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
Bb F I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor
C Dm Illusion never changed, into something real
Bb F I'm wide awake and I can see, the perfect sky is torn
C Dm I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
Bb F I'm cold and I am shamed, bound and broken on the floor
C Dm (C) Bb You're a little late, I'm already torn
Outro:
Dm C Torn... [much wailing]
Ooh...
Outro/Solo:
(Same rhythm as Choruses) [To Fade]

This a Fantastic Song. I have listenend to this track repeatedly and I feel that this is pretty close, I have limited knowledge of Chords, so the Build-Up is no doubt using Chords, If so, please contact me and tell me what they are.
