Album: Black Sheep Boy
Tabbed by: Brandon Madsen (brandon dot madsen at gmail dot com)
There are two existing tabs up on the site at the time I am posting this, and neither is quite right.
These are the actual chords (not relative to a capo or anything), and as such can be used for any instrument.
VERSE 1:
ABmF#m
Remember when our so-called friend would not call out to you while tumbling loosely out a hole punched through
DABmF#m
your home? It's pretty clear, though you could hear, you truly finally knew in time, he'll tell his tale
D
the way he'd like it told.
F#mDBmD
Now he isn?t on the phone. His story might as well be so.

VERSE 2:
ABmF#mD
Well, loving is as loving does, and I'd say we should know, because we both have loved and lost and are alone.
ABmF#m
Your face?s falling tears, to me they're lovely and they're dear, though you don't love me and it's clear that
D
I will never see you in my arms.
F#mDBmD
There?s no room in your heart for even this finely-sharpened dart.
ABmDA
Although I had started to think there might be hope, it isn?t so.
INSTRUMENTAL INTERLUDE:
ABmF#mDABmF#mDBRIDGE:
F#mBmDA
So wake up, make up some new song again around the same tune.
F#mBm
The water cools; the leaves, they fall; the sun, it bends;
DA
the summer ends; our so-called friend doesn?t need you.
VERSE 3:
ABmF#m
So proceed out the door and down the street. December?s lying near, but in the oven?s heat this house is now a
DABmF#mD
home. Sixty days of trips and stays you took to tell me, dear, that you cannot love me because you secretly
still love a stone.
F#mDBmD
Though I put my lips to your face, trying to push his kiss out of its place...
ABmDA
Although my heart started to race, now it has slowed, I'll let it go.
INSTRUMENTAL OUTRO:

(I am ignoring the more ambient outro that continues for 40 more seconds after the song has basically ended)
