Chords with lyrics

Tabbed by Alexander Nachaj

It doesn't seem like anyone else tabbed this song out yet, so I decided to give it
a shot. The song is in A, and there might be another chord change at the end of
the verses, but meh, sounds good enough.

(Piano Chord Opening) A-A-A-A

A augmentedA					 E MajorE
you took your hits, wear the bruises on the soles of your feet
		D MajorD
well, whos to say if they're deserved?
				F# minorF#m
but you're turning reckless now, I hear you saying through your teeth,
 A augmentedA
that you'll take them down first
					E MajorE
but I saw you flinch when the doctors got their claws in you
		  D MajorD
I saw your smile start to crack
			  F# minorF#m
it's not so funny when you're sunk and there ain't nothing you can do
              D MajorD
when your options are all dead ends
			 A augmentedA
when there's no way out
E MajorE						  D MajorD
I'll let you build your home in me until the clocks run down
          A augmentedA
when your luck's run out
E MajorE							D MajorD
call me and I will coem and fix you, get your feet on the ground
			A augmentedA
when there's not way out
E MajorE						A augmentedA
call me and I will come and bury you, all safe and sound

A-A-A-A (power chord)

  D MajorD       A augmentedA	   E MajorE
all this time, you've been drifting out with the tide, my friend
          D MajorD     A augmentedA         E MajorE
but you can have what's mine, if it helps you stay afloat
  D MajorD            A augmentedA         E MajorE
if I close my eyes, it's 'cause I can't watch you drown anymore, my friend
   D MajorD      A augmentedA        E MajorE
but I'll tell you lies if it helps you sleep at night
   D MajorD     A augmentedA        E MajorE
and the more we fight, the more we don't get right, my frien
 D MajorD      A augmentedA       E MajorE
the more we fight, the more we don't get right

A augmentedA          E MajorE      D MajorD
I heard they broke you, that you gave in
       F# minorF#m
that you dropped and the the fight had left you
   A augmentedA       E MajorE       D MajorD
but don't you worry, it makes no difference
       F# minorF#m
from the start your options were all dead ends

 A augmentedA
when there's no way out
E MajorE						D MajorD
I'll let you build your home in me until the clocks run down
           A augmentedA
when your luck's run out
 E MajorE							D MajorD
call me and I will coem and fix you, get your feet on the ground
		A augmentedA
when there's not way out
E MajorE						A augmentedA
