With a couple additions, corrections, like the intro riff, a few lyric corrections, etc. This is really a good song, made me cry the first time I heard it. It's also a really good song to play for a girlfriend (I'm serious). I played it for mine and she cried too. Okay enough with the sentimental crap on with the tab. Capo: Placed on 3rd fret. [Intro] First the chords come in which are. D, A, and G. Then that really cool riff as follows. Play this with your reverb pedal on, or at full blast. e|-----2-3-2-3-5----2-3-2-0------| B|--3-------------3----------3---| G|-------------------------------| D|-------------------------------| A|-------------------------------| E|-------------------------------| [Verse 1] D A G I'm only pretty sure that I can't take anymore. Before you D A G take a swing, I wonder what are we fighting D A G for. When I say out loud, I want to get out of this, I wonder D A G Is there anything I'm gonna miss [Chorus 1] G I wonder Em A How's it gonna be, when you don't know me, Em G How's it gonna be, when you're sure I'm not there, Em A How's it gonna be, when there's no one there to talk to, Em G Between you and me, 'cause I don't care, How's it gonna D A G be... [Intro Riff] [Verse 2] D A G Where we used to laugh, there's a shouting match. Sharp as a thumbnail D A G scratch. A silence I can't ignore. Like the hammock by the doorway D A G we spent time in, swing's empty. I don't see lightning like last fall, D A G when it was always about to hit me [Chorus 2] G I wonder Em A How's it gonna be, when it goes down Em G How's it gonna be, when you're not around Em A How's it gonna be, when you found out there was nothing Em G Between you and me, 'cause I don't care, How's it gonna D A G be... --Begin the distortion man-- Em G D A How's it gonna be when you don't know me anymore Em G How's it gonna be D A G Wanna get myself back here again D A G the soft lull of oblivion D A G I wanna taste the salt of your skin D A G the soft lull of oblivion, oblivion Em G D A How's it gonna be when you don't know me anymore Em G How's it gonna be --Stop the distortion man!-- [Intro Riff] D A G How's it gonna be.....
