"Ruin"
Let it Break (2011)
Note: I'm not a guitar player, so I'm not sure the tab is 100%, but
I assume it's an easy song to follow. The transcription is in its
original tune (no capo). Play this during both verses. All notes are 8ths:

Hiding out in trenches I’ve built

I’m so good at it now

I know how to trick myself

I maybe high but you got me terrified

Wrapped so tightly round my chest
Your love is a tourniquet
