E Between The Verses
[E]Banquo's been and gone
He's seen it all [A]before
He [G#m]took it and [C#m]then he did [G#m]walk it
He [F#m]shook it and [B]then he did [F#m]rock it
E Before Pre-Chorus & Chorus
And you [F#m]know it's [E]true

It's alright by [E]me
Interlude: E All The Way
[E]Alas for poor Macbeth
He found a shallow [A]grave
But [G#m]better than a [C#m]painful [G#m]death
And [F#m]quicker than his [B]dying [F#m]breath
E Before Pre-Chorus & Chorus
And you [F#m]know it's [E]true
You [F#m]never saw things quite that [E]way
She [F#m]knew it [E]all
And [F#m]made you see things [B]all her way
[E]Somebody [Bm7]knows for [A]sure
[E]It's gotta be me or it's [Bm7]gotta be [A]you
[E]Come on along and tell me [Bm7]it's [A]alright now
