             DAMSEL IN DISTRESS - Neck Deep
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Bas Nieuweboer
E-mail: [email protected]

Tuning: Standard E MajorE

So, the original is played in Drop C, but after listening for a while I figured that the lowest power chord
that they are playing is an F, so this song is perfectly playable in Standard E. If I'm wrong about this, and
the lowest chord isn't an F, please shoot me an email and I'll try to revise the tab.

Verse
The verses are just a C, G, A, FF and back to G+G power chords, but because it's pretty difficult to hear the
strumming pattern I made a chord diagram.

C majorC
We'll stay up late
        G+G
I'll end up sleeping on the floor,
  A augmentedA
The people here are nothing new
   FF
I'll see how I'm feeling...
   G+G
Nah, fuck this I'm leaving
C majorC
Conversation is wearing thin,
  G+G
I don't even know whose house this is,
  A augmentedA
I kinda wish I just stayed home,
   FF        G+G
But Friday night is boring on my own

Chorus

C majorC
She's a witch, she's a mess
         G+G
She's a waste of time,
       FF
Damsel in distress on a steep decline,

When all she wants is someone to keep her warm

C majorC                     G+G
Now you're at home I guess you're alone again,
    A augmentedA
It's 5am as she stumbles to bed
              FF
Plays out thoughts in her head,
               G+G
Falls asleep then wakes up wishing she was
C majorC
Dead and disgusted with those who she's trusted,
 G+G
To just be fucked over and left in the dust,
      A augmentedA
So she'll cling to her bottle.
              FF           G+G
And hope that tomorrow she won't sit and wallow again

She's a waste of time,
       FF
Damsel in distress on a steep decline,
C majorC                     G+G   FF
When all she wants is someone to keep her warm
C majorC                   G+G
She's 21 next year but she's lost her mind,
            FF
She fucks it up almost every time she tries,
C majorC                      G+G   FF
She grabbed my hand as I walked her to her door
