Intro:
D (harmonic)


Verse 1:
    D5           D(b5)         Dsus        D(F#)
Had one of those days when you want to try heroin,
D5             D(b5)           Dsus    D(F#)
drunk driving, some form of soft    suicide.
D5         D(b5)       Dsus       D(F#)
Sitting in silence and staring at ceilings or
D5          D(b5)        Dsus         D(F#)
peeling the paint off of things to confide.

Chorus 1:
      D5      D(b5)     Dsus    D(F#)      D5     D(b5)
Maybe someday       the lies    we've led around
     Dsus   D(F#)     D5    D(b5)     Dsus          D(F#)   D5  D(b5)  Dsus  D(F#)
will crawl  under our beds        and sleep off the years.


Verse 2:
D5          D(b5)     Dsus            D(F#)
Teach me to wiggle my ears like that, show me the
D5            D(b5)        Dsus          D(F#)
scar that you got when you fell off your bike.
D5         D(b5)         Dsus       D(F#)
Ask me the questions you never want answers to.
D5        D(b5)         Dsus    D(F#)
We can re-write them however we like.


Chorus 2:
      D5      D(b5)     Dsus    D(F#)      D5     D(b5)
Maybe someday       the lies    we've led around
     Dsus   D(F#)     D5    D(b5)     Dsus          D(F#)   D5  D(b5)  Dsus  D(F#)
will crawl  under our beds        and sleep off the years.

D5  D(b5)  Dsus  D(F#)  x 4


Bridge:
         B5               A5       G5
Stop the hardwood floor's lopsided grin.
          B5            A5           G5
Leave the dirt and dead flowers in a brown coffee tin.
         B5          A5          G5
Let your hand melt a hole in the frost.
         B5      A5             G5          A5(2)
Peer out under a sky that looks just like a shirt I lost.


Chorus 3:
D5      D(b5)     Dsus    D(F#)      D5     D(b5)
Someday       the lies    we've led around
     Dsus   D(F#)     D5    D(b5)     Dsus          D(F#)   D5   D(b5)
will crawl  under our beds        and sleep off the years.
Dsus            D(F#)
Sleep off those years
