1. Capo, 4th Fret
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Capo 1st fret
Intro: D Bm G A
D A Bm
Like a child I can sit in the corner
G D A
with these pills I can barely get by
D A Bm
so I wait for the hour of approval
G A D
ten minutes until it's five
D A Bm
And it's Friday, so I don't feel so lonely
G D A
I know the wolves are out tonight
D A Bm
the sound of ice in a bottomless glass
G A D
tells me that all that is fine
[chorus]
Bm G
Playing guitar and I'm forgetting words
D A
like a baby who just learned to speak
Bm G
unfinished songs that I swear I'd get done
D A
but the premise was just kind of weak
D A Bm
Like the moon you are cold, you are distant
G D A
like the sun I can burn through the day
D A Bm
in the valley the echo gets longer
G A D
they've all gone away
[chorus]
Bm G
Playing guitar and I'm forgetting words
D A
like a baby who just learned to speak
Bm G
unfinished songs that I swear I'd get done
D A
but the premise was just kind of weak
(softly)
D A Bm
There is time to reflect and ponder
G D A
as the chips fall where they may
D A Bm
I will live for the sake of others
G A D
so they can do the same

Something in my mind

Clicked as i paint the bathroom blue

Words are pouring out

Was to turn and walk away

Maybe you and i are different

We can't get enough

Of this love, sick love

Em
Putting out a fire

With a flame thrower is strange

Acting like we're stranded

And being right
F#
Giving up to me it seems
B
Is better than a fight

Maybe you and i are different

We just can't get enough

10. Amends
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Capo 1
Note: I didn't tab all of the fills, you can figure it out with some practice
Intro: G C G C G C G C
G
Suffocating every breath you take
Am
Building up a tower just to break
C
Hold my breath till I turn blue
G C-G-C
Sincerity's the former strongest suit
G
Ordinary circumstances that
Am
Could never be seen from where you are
C
In a room as small as this
D
I didn't think that you could seem so far
Am C
So I make my rounds to the lower ground
Em C
With a message late to send
Am C
I don't think it's worth the time
D G-C-G-C-G-C-G-C
To make amends
G
Winter comes and goes without a word
Am
Spring quiets the bad things that I heard
C
Summer is a happy time
D
Most certainly the fall will divide
Am C
So you operate with an open heart
Em C
You forgot to stitch again
Am C
I don't think it's worth the time
D G-C-G-C-G-C-G-C (End G)
To make amends
