NOTE - I'm posting 2 different ways to play this song. Personally, I feel the
first way sounds nicer but playing it the second way is for those who are too lazy
to tune down ;) Enjoy and let me know what you think!

TUNED DOWN HALF A STEP

Abaug- xx6554

Intro - C#m Abaug E F# C#m Abaug E F# C#m
C#m Abaug E F#
Read your letter and finally I could cry,
C#m Abaug E F#
But I don't really understand exactly why,
C#m Abaug E F#
I guess I cried because I knew it was the end,
C#m Abaug E F#
No more hate now, just learning to begin.
[F#] Learning how [E]to crawl across[A] a floor that's covered wi[F#]th glass,
[F#] Learning how [E]to look away an[A]d never to loo[F#]k back[E]. [A][F#][E][A][F#]
Instrumental - C#m Abaug E F# x2
C#m Abaug
I cannot fathom how we dragged it for so long,
[E] And I think we both know which[F#] one of us was wrong,
C#m Abaug
But now I'm asked to act as if I didn't feel,
[E] Anything from you, my friend, and[F#] it's a bitter pill to swallow.
[F#] You're right, th[E]is world is cold a[A]nd all that I can[F#] do,
[F#] Is banish e[E]very thought of yo[A]u, because you ar[F#]e so c[E]ruel.[A][F#][E][A][F#]
C#m Abaug
Watch the Simpsons to remember how you laugh,
I [E]miss your dark blue eyes, and [F#]staring at your back,
My leopard, my lamb.
[F#] You're right, th[E]is world is cold a[A]nd all that I can[F#] do,
[F#] Is banish eve[E]ry thought of you,[A] because you are [F#]so cruel,
[F#] Learning how [E]to crawl across[A] a floor that's covered wi[F#]th glass,
[F#] Learning how [E]to look away an[A]d never to loo[F#]k back[E].[A][F#][E][A][F#]
