(He likes to do a bit of hammering in this song, I prefer to play around with it myself, but a distinct one
that he uses is hammer on the D string when he plays Em)
[Intro]
Em G D D(C) x2
Em G
Settle down, head against the window
D C
counting hours by the handful of plastic bottle shots
Em G
coming home, sleeping in my own bed
D
waking up to the silence
C
I’m no good at this at all
C Em C B7
I need a good distraction, honey if you could come by
Em G
and hold me like you want me, like that would make me happy,
D C
like that would take the pain away if only for a while
Em G
and maybe in the morning, leave without a warning
D C
just a note on the pillowcase that says “I never wanted more”
Em G D C x2
Em G
Cuddle up, wrap your arms around me
D
don’t lace it up with sympathy
C
it’s just easy if you’re sleeping
Em G
soon enough I’ll be leaving here tomorrow,
D C
and all the pain and the sorrow makes it easier to go
C Em C B7
I need a good distraction, honey if you could come by
Em G
and hold me like you want me, like that would make me happy,
D C
like that would take the pain away if only for a while
Em G
and maybe in the morning, leave without a warning
D C
just a note on the pillowcase that says “I never wanted more”
C Em D D
oh, heartbreaker, name-taker, ladies man,
C Em D D C Em D D C Em D D
oh, heartbreaker, name-taker, heartbreaker, ladies man, oh
(end on D)
