Followed by the "I'm tired, I'm tired..." line.
The strumming pattern for the rest of the song is: |DD UDU|DD UDU|DD UDU| etc.
After every "I'm tired of being tongue tied" line, he starts the next bar with an exaggerated
up strum on Em.
Lyrics/Chords:
[TAB]
The fall that breaks your bed,
turns showers of sunlight to hours of hindsight instead.
You sigh, you shake your head,
it did what they asked us, but time drifted past I'm afraid.
AmD
But I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired of being tongue tied.
EmEmCadd9Em x2
EmEm
If we can make it through tonight girl,
Cadd9Em
I know I won't be alone again.
EmEm
If we can make it through this night girl,
Cadd9Em
I know I won't be alone again.
AmD
But I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired of being tongue tied.
EmEmCadd9EmEmEm
If I don't let you go tonight girl,
Cadd9Em
I know I won't be alone again.
EmEm
My lips are dry your grip is tight girl,
Cadd9Em
but I know I won't sing this song again.
AmD
But I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired of being tongue tied.
EmEmCadd9EmEmEm
I know these wrongs don't make it right girl,
Cadd9Em
but I know I will look on and admire.
EmEm
So I will watch you here tonight girl,
Cadd9Em
brighter and more like the embers of our fire.
AmD
But I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired of being tongue tied.
AmD
So lately I've been working on this song of mine.
[TAB]
You sigh, you shake your hair,
turns showers of sunlight to hours of hindsight instead.
The fall that breaks your bed,
it did what they asked us, but time drifted past I'm afraid.
AmD
But I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired of being tongue tied
NOTE: I'm fairly certain this is how Rheon plays it; however, I like to slip a C chord in
between the first two Ems of each bar as I feel it plays better. So:
EmCEm
"If we can make it through tonight girl,
Cadd9Em
I know I won't be alone again." etc.
