Capo 3rd


Verse 1:
     A minorAm      G+G
Could you set aside a little time
   FF          C majorC
To soothe your soul and rest your mind
   A minorAm       G+G       E minorEm  C majorC G+G
Tomorrow just might be a brand-new day
      A minorAm       G+G
On every other day youll wear that frown
      FF           C majorC
When its left foot, right foot, six foot down
  A minorAm      G+G        A minorAm
Sometimes its alright not to be okay

Pre-Chorus:
FF            G+G          C majorC
They tell you that a smile belongs to the status quo
       FF           G+G          A minorAm
And if you think about something else youll be on your way


Chorus:
   FF          G+G
But when youre crashing down
      A minorAm         E minorEm
and only love can bring you round
  FF      G+G      C majorC
Bend my ear before you slip away


Verse 2:
     A minorAm      G+G
It was never meant to end this way
 FF       C majorC
All you had and all you gave
 A minorAm     G+G    E minorEm  C majorC G+G
tragedy, chemical dismay
      A minorAm      G+G
On every other day you wore that crown
  FF         C majorC
It fit you well but beat you down
       A minorAm       G+G    A minorAm
Now we’re weeping in the garden sans sound

Pre-Chorus:
FF                G+G          C majorC
They wanna tell you that the smile belongs to the status quo
      FF           G+G           A minorAm
And if you think about something else youll be on your way


Chorus:
   FF          G+G
But when youre crashing down
      A minorAm        E minorEm
and only love can bring you round
 FF       G+G       C majorC
Bend my ear before you slip away


Solo:
A minorAm G+G FF C majorC
A minorAm G+G A minorAm


Chorus:
   FF          G+G
But when youre crashing down
      A minorAm        E minorEm
and only love can bring you round
 FF       G+G       C majorC
Bend my ear before you slip away


Verse 3:
 A minorAm      G+G
Set aside a little time
  FF          C majorC
To soothe your soul and rest your mind
 A minorAm           G+G       E minorEm  C majorC G+G
Scream till you’ve got nothing left to say

A minorAm           G+G
It was never meant to end this way
FF         C majorC
Bend my ear and swear to stay
A minorAm           G+G        C majorC
Cause sometimes its alright not to be okay
