Released at October 21st 2008 as part of the Last Shadow Puppets debut -and only- album
"The Age of the Understatement", this track revolves around a very easy rhythmic guitar
section and the signature jamesbond-esque orchestra arrangements.
Lyrics by Alex Turner & Miles Kane

NOTE: This tab is based on the next live performance:
Live at Avatar Studios 2008 - http://goo.gl/Ow6yfk
I highly recommend watching this live version to grasp Miles'
rhythmic guitar part.

Dm* XX0231 G7 320001 Em* 022000
[Verse 1]
C Em Dm Am Dm Em Dm G
The colder the night gets the further she strays
C Em Dm Am Dm Em Dm G
And he doesn't like it Being this way
C Em Dm Am Dm Em Dm G
And she tried so hard to steer away from the meeting place
C Em Dm Am Dm Em Dm G
But her heart had led her there
C Em Dm Am Dm Em Dm G
[Verse 2]
C Em Dm Am Dm Em Dm G
She clings to his consciousness where--ver he lays
C Em Dm Am Dm Em Dm G
He struggles to sleep at night and du-ring the day
C Em Dm Am
He's worried she's waiting in his dreams
Dm Em Dm G
To drag him back to the meeting place
C Em Dm Am Dm Em Dm
His love had left him there
G
Where her voice still echoes
[Chorus]
Dm* G7 Dm* G7
"I'm sorry I met you darling, I'm sorry I met you"
Em* Dm*
As she turned into the night all he had was the words
G7 Dm* G7
"I'm sorry I met you darling, I'm sorry I left you"
C Em Dm Am Dm Em Dm G
[Verse 3]
C Em Dm Am Dm Em Dm G
For weeks they had strolled around, playing the fools
C Em Dm Am Dm Em Dm G
They knew the time would come and time would be cruel
C Em Dm Am
Because it's cruel to e--veryone
Dm Em Dm G
He's crying out from the meeting place
C Em Dm Am Dm Em Dm
He's stran-ded himself there
G
Where her voice still echoes,
[Chorus]
Dm* G7 Dm* G7
"I'm sorry I met you darling, I'm sorry I met you"
Em* Dm*
As she turned into the night all he had was the words
G7 Dm* G7
"I'm sorry I met you darling, I'm sorry I left you"
[Interlude] (in the acoustic live performance they sing the strings section)
Em*
Dm* G7 Dm* G7
Dara-rara dara-ra, dara-rara dara-ra
Em*
Da-raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...
(Da da ra, da da ra)
[Outro]
Dm* G7 Dm* G7
"I'm sorry I met you darling, I'm sorry I left you"
C Em Dm Am
