Halloween by Meg & Dia

Tabs

This is my first tab I've ever done :)
I noticed there were no correct tabs for this, so I decided to give it a try.
It was tabbed to match the official acoustic version which you can find here:

^^Listen to it to get the strum pattern.

(Two times for intro, and two times for verse)

I've decided I'm done, don't care to move on;
Not used to losing someone.
If I lost fate, was no choice I made;
Except the excuse of no one.

Your careful silence can't replace your stupid smile
Casseroles and handshakes can't restore
Twelve damn years of ours
You stole me

I don't dare to try again, they said time will heal,
And time will mend, And on
Halloween the last time you left,
If I knew you were never coming back, I would've

Held on to that last day
Instead of "here's your keys", the last thing I'd say
Would be "I love you", just in case
I'm only myself when I'm with you, baby

(I'll be with you someday)
Take down my mirror, my pictures of costumes and you
I put aside posters and books and aged fortunes
And all this reminds me of you

With a pat on the back they say "honey, it's time to move on
I'm sure we can find you a hobby now that he's gone"
You stole me

They don't understand
We were like this since the first time we met
We were born holding hands
Give me flowers and cards, I'll smile all they want
If they give me what I want
Give me what I want!
