-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey, first ever chord/tab or whatev. Great song. Enjoy.
Capo: 3
E minorEm
You've got two eyes that took me by surprise when you walked by.
C majorC
I think that I could die a thousand deaths and still turn out just fine,
A minorAm E minorEm
If I could just see your face every day of my life
Well I see you're sad but we're both sad, and I see you cry and it makes me mad.
C majorC
I see the good in all your bad. Lets take this shitty life we have
A minorAm E minorEm 
D MajorD 
Dsus4Dsus4
And throw it down the drain and run away. Just you & I
E minorEm 
G+G A minorAm C majorC
Well love don?t tell us what to do.
E minorEm G+G A minorAm C majorC
It only shows us what we need.
E minorEm G+G A minorAm C majorC
And whenever I'm alone with you,
E minorEm G+G A minorAm C majorC
I know I'm where I want to be
E minorEm
You're the angel that gives me reason but I can't begin to count my demons.
C majorC
Somehow you still keep me dreamin'. You let me know my life has meaning.
A minorAm
I?ll find that boy that left you bleeding. Whispered "love" and you believed him.
C majorC
I begged and begged for you to leave him. I swear I'll kill 'em when I see him.
E minorEm
I love you more than words can say but I can?t take your breath away,
C majorC
Or be the prince that saves the day, 'cause I'll rub your feet, but I?m not your slave.
A minorAm C majorC D MajorD Dsus4Dsus4
I thought that you should know that I'll forever love you so.
E minorEm G+G A minorAm C majorC
Well love don?t tell us what to do.
E minorEm G+G A minorAm C majorC
It only shows us what we need.
E minorEm G+G A minorAm C majorC
And whenever I'm alone with you,
E minorEm G+G A minorAm C majorC
I know I'm where I want to be
E minorEm
God cuffed the devil 'cause he had my soul.
Cut off his hands and claimed he stole.
C majorC E minorEm
The devil sat there bleeding and crying, all confused.
'Cause when I signed that paper to give him his share.
Me and Mr. Lucifer were both unaware
C majorC D MajorD Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD
That the soul that I sold him had long belonged to you.
(Single strums if you're really feelin it)
E minorEm G+G A minorAm C majorC
And love don't tell us what to do.
E minorEm G+G A minorAm C majorC
It only shows us what we need.
E minorEm G+G A minorAm C majorC
And whenever I'm alone with you,
E minorEm G+G A minorAm C majorC E minorEm
I know I'm where I want to be

Verse 1
Dmaj7Dmaj7
Well I see you standing there and your eyes are unaware
G+G
That I've been staring at them all night, wishing the brain behind them cared
E minorEm
About the way you make me feel or how your smile makes me nervous
A augmentedA
Or how the fact that you exist makes me feel like I have a purpose.
Dmaj7Dmaj7
I'm sick of lying in your bed while we're both laying down.
G+G
You say you want me for a friend. I hope you know I hate that sound.
E minorEm
But I will bite my tongue because I hate when you're pissed off.
A augmentedA
But you should know I need your touch like falling rain on thirsty crops.
Chorus
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
But damn you stupid girl. Why won't you drop your guard?
A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
The space between our lips is bound to break my ever aching heart.
A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
And I am sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you more.
A augmentedA
So why won't you love me?
Short Bridge Thing - Dmaj7Dmaj7 G+G
Dmaj7Dmaj7
Well I hate your cigarettes and the men that you go see
G+G
Because one is killing you, while the other's killing me.
E minorEm
But I know that you'll stay stubborn because you know I'll stay alone.
A augmentedA
'Cause we both know, inside your grasp, is the only place I feel at home.
Dmaj7Dmaj7
Now I sit with my guitar. Write you one more stupid song.
G+G
I hate the way you make me feel like I'm doing something wrong.
E minorEm
But you'll just have to deal with all the things that I have mentioned
A augmentedA
And I hope this song is golden like the point of my intentions
Chorus
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
But damn you stupid girl. Why won't you drop your guard?
A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
The space between our lips is bound to break my ever aching heart.

And I am sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you more.
A augmentedA
So why won't you love me?
Short Bridge Thing - Dmaj7Dmaj7 G+G
Verse 3
Dmaj7Dmaj7
Now the deed is done and there is nothing left to say.
G+G
Prayed to the God you don't believe in, that you'll love me some day.
E minorEm
So when the years go by and you forget how much I care;
A augmentedA
Put in this song and sing along so your heart will be aware.
Outro
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
It's like giving up on everything that you believe
A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
To put your trust in a girl that stole your heart right of your sleeve.
A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
And I'm so sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you more.
A augmentedA (Strum once) Dmaj7Dmaj7 (Strum once)
But you just won't love me.
Hope y'all liked it - Name's James Lavelle - Nice to meet you!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Capo 4, standard tuning.
G+G C majorC
So cold is the wind that blows your hair.
G+G C majorC
So warm is your touch upon my skin.
G+G C majorC
How tired am I of being scared,
G+G C majorC
but how awake am I now that I know you're here.
G+G
'Cause I'd rather fight with you than laugh with another.
E minorEm
I'd rather freeze in your arms than be warm under covers.
C majorC D MajorD
I'd let you hit me before I ever let you hit the floor.
G+G
I'd rather choke than to breath in your absence.
E minorEm
I'd rather feel your wrath than feel another's passion.
C majorC D MajorD
I'd rather die on the day that I give you a kiss than spend the rest of my
life knowing I never did
G+G E minorEm
So just hold me and tell me that I'm everything you need.
C majorC D MajorD
Tell me that, that lonely little heart of yours that I've been dying for,
G+G
ain't out of reach.
G+G
So if you're looking for some proof
that there's a heart inside of me
E minorEm
than lace your fingers between mine and you will see it start to leak.
C majorC
And I know you're not a crutch but I can hold you when I stand
D MajorD
'cause I am living for touch but I would die to be your man.
G+G
Let me look into your eyes
like I am searching for your soul.
E minorEm
Wrap my arms around your waist
like it is dying from the cold.
C majorC
Run my fingers through your hair
like they are water from the drain.
D MajorD
Press my lips against your back
like they could take away its pain.
G+G
And to give you everything,
there is nothing I wont do.
E minorEm
Dump my heart into a blender
just to pour it out to you.
C majorC
And I know you're feeling tired.
Just let me hold you for a bit.
D(strum once)
Dive my face between your thighs until I cannot feel my lips. ohh
G+G E minorEm C majorC D MajorD G+G
G+G C majorC
I know that you think I'm kind of odd.
G+G
But if your love was a mountain,
C majorC
I swear that I'd climb to the top.
G+G C majorC
I Would tell you "you're lovely and everything ill ever need,
G+G C majorC G+G
and id give you my all if you'd just come and stand next to me."

[intro] FF C majorC 
DmDm C majorC
A#A# C majorC DmDm C majorC
[verse]
FF C majorC DmDm C majorC
I saw you standing on that bridge
A#A# C majorC DmDm C majorC
Right then I knew the life that I would like to live
FF C majorC DmDm C majorC
Your frizzy hair tangled my mind
A#A# C majorC DmDm C majorC
Right then I knew that I would love you for all time
FF C majorC DmDm C majorC
You ran your hand across the ledge
A#A# C majorC DmDm C majorC
Right then I felt that all my hunger had been fed
FF C majorC DmDm C majorC
You cracked a smile up towards the sky
A#A# C majorC DmDm C majorC A#A#
That thought alone will keep me happy for my life, but I ask now
[chorus]
A#A# C majorC DmDm FF A#A#
How can angels fly when you're still on the ground?
A#A# C majorC DmDm FF A#A#
Cause I've been searching my whole life for you to turn my life around
A#A# C majorC DmDm
And now I don't know what to say because the pain won't go away
FF A#A# C majorC FF
And I've been crying since the day that you took all my good away
[intro riff]
FF C majorC DmDm C majorC
A#A# C majorC DmDm C majorC
[verse]
FF C majorC DmDm C majorC
I wish I'd never walked away
A#A# C majorC DmDm C majorC
Cause if I knew you'd jump I'd dive into that bay
FF C majorC DmDm C majorC
And I would have saved you from the cold
A#A# C majorC DmDm C majorC A#A#
Cause when you took that leap you stole my heart and soul, so I ask now
[chorus]
A#A# C majorC DmDm FF A#A#
How can angels fly when you're still on the ground?
A#A# C majorC DmDm FF A#A#
Cause I've been searching my whole life for you to turn my life around
A#A# C majorC DmDm
And now I don't know what to do cause I?ve been standing at your grave
FF A#A# C majorC FF
And I've been crying since the day that you took all my good away
[intro riff]
FF C majorC DmDm C majorC
A#A# C majorC DmDm C majorC
[verse]
FF C majorC DmDm C majorC
Your mother said you're up above
A#A# C majorC DmDm C majorC
And all you wanted was a man for you to love
FF C majorC DmDm C majorC
Well I just started breaking down
A#A# C majorC DmDm C majorC A#A#
Because the angel I've been searching for had left me on the ground
C majorC FF
And now I'll die alone

10. Island of the Misfit Boy
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tunning: Half Step Down
C majorC
I love to sleep, cause I pretend that I'm dead
E MajorE
But I hate waking up cause it's hard to forget
A minorAm FF G+G
That I've lost all control of this life that I've held so dear.
C majorC
And I wait for the bus but I'm not on the bench,
E MajorE
I'm just spread across the ground making friends with cement,
A minorAm FF G+G
Hoping that the bus won't miss me when it comes my way.
A minorAm
Well I made a few jokes but they said they weren't funny.
FF
I tried to force a smile but they said it was ugly.
C majorC G+G
I tried to make a friend but no one was a friend to me.
A minorAm
Poured my heart to a girl and it went on the floor,
FF
And I asked her what she wanted and she said she wanted more.
C majorC G+G
I tried to find a lover, all I found was an enemy.
C majorC
Well I stand in front of the mirror and look at myself.
E MajorE
And I don't make a sound but my eyes scream out help
A minorAm
And I start to struggle to hold myself back,
FF G+G
From thrusting my head straight through the fucking glass
C majorC
And I'm tired of falling for girls that don't care,
E MajorE
And breaking my back to try to make them aware
A minorAm
That I'm more than depressed and their time won't be wasted
FF G+G
But I am just a broken boy that no one wants to play with.
A minorAm
Now I'm lost in this hole and I'm sure I am stuck
FF
And I can't run away 'cause I'm lazy as fuck.
C majorC
So I sit on the floor as I gather my thoughts
G+G
And they're full of broken promises that only piss me off.
A minorAm
Well I lost control when I was only a boy,
FF
The world taught me angst when I deserved joy.
C majorC
Now I'm breaking down as I struggle to breathe,
G+G
Cause I believe in a god who won't believe in me.
C majorC
Well I stand in front of the mirror and look at myself.
E MajorE
And I don't make a sound but my eyes scream out help
A minorAm
And I start to struggle to hold myself back,
FF G+G
From thrusting my head straight through the fucking glass
C majorC
And I'm tired of falling for girls that don't care,
E MajorE
And breaking my back to try to make them aware
A minorAm
That I'm more than depressed and their time won't be wasted
FF G+G C majorC
But I am just a broken boy that no one wants to play with.

And the way you make me laugh.

You're never coming back.
CHORUS:
D MajorD
So I'm sitting in my room
As I try to write this song.
G+G
I'm so sorry that it's not good enough.
It's just that everything seems wrong,
E minorEm
And I keep bursting into tears
Because the pain won't go away,

Because the father took my best friend
And said she cannot come out to play

It's just that everything seems wrong,

But I will try my best to be good
So I can pay my way,
A augmentedA
Straight through the pearly gates
Into your arms so we can play
D MajorD
Once more.
SPOKEN OUTRO: (play D MajorD G+G over and over until end)
D MajorD
Grandma, Uh, I love God with all my heart
G+G
And uh, The only reason that isn't
D MajorD
Stated in my life is because of you
And I really don't understand it God
That you introduced me to
What would take you away so fast
G+G
When you were the only person
That ever understood a thing I ever said
And I really don't understand
D MajorD
How to deal with this anymore
And, I'm just really not okay with this
G+G
And I miss you and I understand you're in heaven
D MajorD
But I don't want to be selfish
I don't want you to be in heaven
I want you to be back down here
I don't want you to be there
G+G
I want you to be here
What am I supposed to do now
G+G C majorC G+G C majorC fade out...
