Intro:
D MajorD (harmonic)


Verse 1:
  D5D5      D(b5)     DsusDsus    D(F#F#)
Had one of those days when you want to try heroin,
D5D5       D(b5)      DsusDsus  D(F#F#)
drunk driving, some form of soft  suicide.
D5D5     D(b5)    DsusDsus    D(F#F#)
Sitting in silence and staring at ceilings or
D5D5     D(b5)    DsusDsus     D(F#F#)
peeling the paint off of things to confide.

Chorus 1:
   D5D5   D(b5)   DsusDsus  D(F#F#)   D5D5   D(b5)
Maybe someday    the lies  we've led around
   DsusDsus  D(F#F#)   D5D5  D(b5)   DsusDsus     D(F#F#)  D5D5 D(b5) DsusDsus D(F#F#)
will crawl under our beds    and sleep off the years.


Verse 2:
D5D5     D(b5)   DsusDsus      D(F#F#)
Teach me to wiggle my ears like that, show me the
D5D5      D(b5)    DsusDsus     D(F#F#)
scar that you got when you fell off your bike.
D5D5     D(b5)     DsusDsus    D(F#F#)
Ask me the questions you never want answers to.
D5D5    D(b5)     DsusDsus  D(F#F#)
We can re-write them however we like.


Chorus 2:
   D5D5   D(b5)   DsusDsus  D(F#F#)   D5D5   D(b5)
Maybe someday    the lies  we've led around
   DsusDsus  D(F#F#)   D5D5  D(b5)   DsusDsus     D(F#F#)  D5D5 D(b5) DsusDsus D(F#F#)
will crawl under our beds    and sleep off the years.


Instrumental:
D5D5 D(b5) DsusDsus D(F#F#) x 4


Bridge:
     B5B5        A5A5    G5G5
Stop the hardwood floor's lopsided grin.
     B5B5      A5A5      G5G5
Leave the dirt and dead flowers in a brown coffee tin.
     B5B5     A5A5     G5G5
Let your hand melt a hole in the frost.
     B5B5   A5A5       G5G5     A5(2)
Peer out under a sky that looks just like a shirt I lost.


Chorus 3:
D5D5   D(b5)   DsusDsus  D(F#F#)   D5D5   D(b5)
Someday    the lies  we've led around
   DsusDsus  D(F#F#)   D5D5  D(b5)   DsusDsus     D(F#F#)  D5D5  D(b5)
will crawl under our beds    and sleep off the years.
DsusDsus      D(F#F#)
Sleep off those years
