CALL THE DAYS - Nadia Reid
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: bengtaaron
Tuning: Open D (DADF#AD)
In Open D tuning, this song mostly uses the chords D (000000) and a voicing of G (555500). You can
play (5555xx) if the first G voicing is too difficult. The riffs and bass melodies are the same for each
verse, but I've only tabbed them out for the first one.

Heaven would not hear my call
D
I am digging my own grave
Chasing shit beneath the haze
I was so sure that he would stay
And would love me anyway
G D
I was happy on my own
G D
I would call the days as they were known
G D
In the guilt that I have I found
G D
You know the one that sticks around

I threw out my winter coat
I cut the sleeves off all I’d known
I was so sure that he would stay
And would love me anyway
