Cannonball - Damien Rice
Tabbed by: Chris Spurgeon
This is a *** good song. And not too tricky. I got a couple of tabs for this but neither were especially good so
I thought I’d have a go at tabbing it myself.
Sorry if you find the tab rubbish, it is my first time so don’t think too badly of me, and I havn’t been playing
for long either.
! Capo 6th (or 5th) Fret ! (depending on how high your singer can go, 6th is better in my opinion.)

2nd Guitar/Chords + Vocals - 1st Verse
G C D Dsus
Still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
G C D Dsus
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
G C D C
Still a little hard to say what's going on
G C D Dsus
Still a little bit of your ghost your witness
G C D Dsus
Still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed
G C D
You step a little closer each day that i can't say
C
what's going on
1st+2nd Guitar/Chords + Vocals - Chorus
G C D Dsus
Stones taught me to fly
G C D Dsus
Love taught me to lie
G C D Dsus
Life taught me to die
C
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannonball
2nd Guitar/Chords + Vocals - 2nd Verse
G C D Dsus
Still a little bit of your song in my ear
G C D Dsus
Still a little bit of your words I long to hear
G C D C
You step a little closer to me, so close that I can't see what's going on
1st+2nd Guitar/Chords + Vocals - 2nd Chorus
G C D Dsus
Stones taught me to fly
G C D Dsus
Love taught me to lie
G C D Dsus
Life taught me to die
C
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannon
G C D Dsus
Stones taught me to fly
G C D Dsus
Love taught me to lie
G C D Dsus
Life taught me to die
C
So it's not hard to fall
And I don't WANNA scare her
C
It's not hard to fall
And I don't wanna lose
C
It's not hard to grow
When you know that you just don't know
It then goes back to the verse tune and chords, and once you’ve repeated it a couple of times the second guitar
stops doing chords and plucks these notes steadily:
e---------------------------------|
b------3--------------------------|
g------------0------2------0------|
d---------------------------------|
a---------------------------------|
e---------------------------------|
Then the first guitar joins in with these notes, probably when they get bored of doing the main riff ; )
OK there it is, well pretty much anyway. Please rate for a first time tabber. And any praise or verbal abuse feel

Enjoy. (Hopefully)
Chris.
