And So It Went
The Pretty Reckless
Note: This song is predominantly riff-based so this is a bit of an adaptation to suit a chord version. [Chords] If you want the chord names for standard tuning throughout the tab transpose -1. Note that the chord shapes still won’t work (only the names will) the shapes will be for drop D.

[Chorus] They said the world does not belong to you You are not the king I am not the fo-ol They said the world does not belong to you It don’t belong to you It belongs to [Bridge] (Tempo reduces to 85 bpm) Everyone is cryin’ out I can hear them scream With all these eyes upon us but no one seems to see That you and me are just the same as God meant it to be But you’re much too close to me But you’re much too close to me-e [Guitar Solo] (Back to original tempo) [Verse 5] (4/4 but with a rest instead of the first quarter note) And so it went (7/4) The children lost their mi--nds (4/4) Nowhere to ru--un nowhere to hi---ide [Verse 6] And the wind begins to howl And the wolf is at your door You have so much of everything N.C. But still you wanted more [Chorus] They said the world does not belong to you You are not the king I am not the fo-ol They said the world does not belong to you It don’t belong to you It belongs to They said the world does not belong to you You are not the king I am not the fo-ol They said the world does not belong to you It don’t belong to you It belongs to me [Outro] *********************************** | x Dead note | h Hammer-on | ( ) Note tied to previous | r Rest | \ Slide down ***********************************
