Chord/Tab song: We Are the Few

Hey, this is me trying to simplify the song and play it on acoustic. I hope it helps!

The X's mean just a scratch stroke. The pattern you follow is marked out by the words
the X's are over.

[F]Dea[G]r
Mr. Gepe[C]tto:[G] I [Am]hope this finds you [F]well
I [G]wrote this l[C]etter[G]
'cause we m[E5]iss you here in [F]hell

And now I k[C]now it's hard when you [G]don't know what to think
And e[Am]very single smile is a t[F]horn when you'[G]re waking up
[C] You might try but you w[G]on't get by until you're c[Am]rucified for all the
[F]things you t[G]ry to do

Well [C]I don't care if you [G]sink or swim
And [Am]I don't care how you h[Em]old it in
As l[F]ong as you don't b[C]other me with a[F]ll the things I don't b[G]other you with

And [C]9 times out of 1[G]0 you might be right
[Am] But what about that t[Em]ime you know you're wrong?
[F] Keep singing that [C]same song
And [F]everybody smiles but they'll n[G]ever get along

I'm trying and I'm trying and I'm trying to let go:
But everybody's going down tonight

[Chorus]
[C5] We are the few that [G5]won't say nothing right
[A5] We are the footsteps f[F5]ading [G5]into the night
[C5] [G5] [A5][F5]
Nobod[G5]y cares and nobody stares with such conviction and I say:
[C5]I never wanted this, [G5]no one ever wanted this
[A5]But they gave it to me so I [F5]might as well be [G5]proud of it
And[C5] I don't know where[G5] we went wrong
[A5]All i know now is i [F5]got to do some[G5]thing right

[C] [G] [Am] [F] [G]
[C] [G] [Am]
[F]So come [G]clean
[C]No one should have have to [G]live with the things you've [Am]seen
But [F]you're living [G]anyway
Well I [C]stop the car and [G]put her in park
And[Am] I step outside (god[Em] I hate this part)
When I [F]see what I saw what I [C]thought was a lie; it was [F]more
Than a chore I'm just do[G]ing what I need to get-

[C]I don't care if you [G]leave or stay
But we[Am] might as well split
Because it's [Em]not the same as it [F]was
When we said our [C]last goodbye
And i[F]f you want the truth: I was [G]hoping one of us would
[C] Pass away because it'd [G]be much easier t[Am]hen
We could all get to[Em]gether and think about w[F]hen
We were young we were d[C]umb we were numb but in l[F]ove
And I'm done so I'm se[G]nding out this letter today

I'm trying and I'm trying and I'm trying to let go:

[Chorus]

C G Am F G x2

[C]This has been the [G]best night of my [Am]life [F] [G] ___X2___
I co[C]uld've lost my l[G]ife
And I wou[Am]ld've lost my mi[F]nd
But n[G]ow I'm fin[C]e and I f[G]ind
That th[Am]is has been the be[F]st night of [G]my-

This has been the best night of my- |

I still can't believe they had the heart to apologize _|
I co[C]uld've lost my [G]life
And I wo[Am]uld've lost my mi[F]nd
But n[G]ow I'm fin[C]e and I f[G]ind
That th[Am]is has been the b[F]est night of [G]my-

[Bridge]
[C]And as the [G]day fades [Am]no one inv[F]estiga[G]tes
[C]Nobody answ[G]ers when she [Am]calls his [F]name[G]
[C]Another vic[G]tim, so[Am]mewhere in a s[F]hallow [G]grave

I want to hold her and tell her: it's not your fault

[C5]Na [G5]na [A5]na.[F5]..[G5]

Na na na...
It's not your fault
