Chords with lyrics
I absolutely adore this song, so I felt it necessary to attempt a tab for
this song, and with chords for people like myself who find it easier to play and
sing using chords. I hope I've done a decent job. Please pay attention to the
chord tab, I know it's easy to play the shapes as if you were in standard but bear
in mind you are in drop D.

Intro: D9D9
Verse 1:
D9D9
So let's face it, this was never what you wanted
D9D9
But I know, I know it's fun to pretend
D9D9
Now blank stares and empty threats
D9D9
Are all I have, they’re all I have
Chorus:
D MajorD
So drown me, if you can
Cadd9Cadd9
Or we could just have conversation
D MajorD
and I fall, I fall, I fall down
CMaj7
But I found you before I drift away
Interlude: D9D9
Verse 3:
D9D9
Now you still speak of day old hate
D9D9
Though your whole world has gone up into flames
D9D9
And isn’t it great to find that you’re really worth nothing
D9D9
And how safe it is to feel safe
Chorus:
D MajorD
So drown me, if you can
Cadd9Cadd9
Or we could just have conversation
D MajorD
and I fall, I fall, I fall down
CMaj7
But I found you before I drift away
Interlude: D9D9
[sing over with doo, doo, doo's]
D9D9
The things we do just to stay alive
D9D9
The things we do just to stay alive
D9D9
The things we do just to stay alive
CMaj7
