Verse 1:
Em G C G G/F#
Call me from the capital,
Em G Am C *
only together as you try to come off.
Em G C G G/F#
When you need me, it's half a world to reach me.
Em G Am C Am C
Selfishly your permanent drain, I am locked inside the places we're the same.
Em B C G G/F#
I know that it's trying and you're tired of hearing it,
Em B C Cm
but nobody else has time to listen how to.
Pre-Chorus:
G Em B C
So can you please do it for me,
G Em B C
this'll be the last that I ask I promise.
G Em B C D
Eleonora, it's fine you know I never wanted to ignore ya.
Chorus:
G - Em - B - C - (x4)
(with Main Lead Part)
Verse 2:
Em G C G G/F#
Sleeping on hard wood is harder when you're hardly any good
Em G Am C
and every sound hits so much louder than it should.
Em G C G G/F#
Where's the one who'll make the ringing go away?
Em G Am C Am C
You're built of much sturdier stuff, while I'm piled high and loose and could use some luck.
Em B C G G/F#
I know you've been dying to move forward,
Em B C Cm
but no one can make it go away the way you do.
Pre-Chorus 2:
G Em B C
So can you please do it for me,
G Em B C
my monument is my failure to answer.
G Em B C D
Eleonora, it's fine you know I never wanted to ignore ya.

-Everything is relative to the capo.
-You could most likely play this without the capo (everything up a half step)
and you would only miss out on the low open note on the Em chord.
-Also live they play it without a capo (in G instead of G#).
-The Pre-chorus Lead is pretty hard to hear but I tried my best.
I hope this is helpful
