Followed by the "I'm tired, I'm tired..." line.
The strumming pattern for the rest of the song is: |D D UDU|D D UDU|D D UDU| etc.
After every "I'm tired of being tongue tied" line, he starts the next bar with an exaggerated
up strum on Em.
Lyrics/Chords:
[TAB]
The fall that breaks your bed,
turns showers of sunlight to hours of hindsight instead.
You sigh, you shake your head,
it did what they asked us, but time drifted past I'm afraid.
Am D
But I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired of being tongue tied.
Em Em Cadd9 Em x2
Em Em
If we can make it through tonight girl,
Cadd9 Em
I know I won't be alone again.
Em Em
If we can make it through this night girl,
Cadd9 Em
I know I won't be alone again.
Am D
But I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired of being tongue tied.
Em Em Cadd9 Em
Em Em
If I don't let you go tonight girl,
Cadd9 Em
I know I won't be alone again.
Em Em
My lips are dry your grip is tight girl,
Cadd9 Em
but I know I won't sing this song again.
Am D
But I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired of being tongue tied.
Em Em Cadd9 Em
Em Em
I know these wrongs don't make it right girl,
Cadd9 Em
but I know I will look on and admire.
Em Em
So I will watch you here tonight girl,
Cadd9 Em
brighter and more like the embers of our fire.
Am D
But I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired of being tongue tied.
Am D
So lately I've been working on this song of mine.
[TAB]
You sigh, you shake your hair,
turns showers of sunlight to hours of hindsight instead.
The fall that breaks your bed,
it did what they asked us, but time drifted past I'm afraid.
Am D
But I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired of being tongue tied
NOTE: I'm fairly certain this is how Rheon plays it; however, I like to slip a C chord in
between the first two Ems of each bar as I feel it plays better. So:
Em C Em
"If we can make it through tonight girl,
Cadd9 Em
I know I won't be alone again." etc.
