The Space Between

"The Space Between" by Dave Matthews' Band >From the Album - Everyday Tab By Chad Kalmes - ckalmes@powerweb.net The basic chords are just E & D for the verses and A E G/Bm D for the verses. Of course, Dave doesn't play just 'regular' chords...nor does he ever seem to play the chords the same way every show...but in any event, a couple of rough estimates are below. There are probably some more Dave-esque chord-forms that would work better, but you'll get the idea.

Will I hold Look us spinning up in the madness of a rollercoaster You know you went off like the devil in a church in the middle of a crowded room All we can do my love is hope we don't take this ship down The space between Where your smiling heart Is where you'll find me if I get to go The space between The bullets in a firefight Is where I'll be hiding waiting for you The rain that falls, splash in your heart Tan like sadness down the window into The space between Our wicked lies is where we hope to keep safe from pain Take my hand cuz we're walking out of here Oh...Right out of here Love is all we need in The space between Whats wrong and right Is where you'll find me hiding waiting for you The space between Your heart and mine is the space we fill with time The space between The space between
