Tuning: Half-Step Down
This is already here, but the chords are in the wrong key or something, so here is the
album version, with tabs at the bottom.
INTRO: (w/ lead): E
VERSE: (w/ lead)
E C#m B
Here’s to you, the same chords that I stole from a song that I once heard
E C#m B
The Same melody I borrowed from the void. I’d rather observe
E C#m B
than structure a narrative, the characters are thin
E C#m B
the plot does not develop it ends where it begins
E C#m B x2
E C#m B
It’s on the screen, in paperbacks, in section 8 and cul-de-sacs
E C#m B A
Electro haikus and drunk sonnets are moving me along. Along
INTERLUDE: (w/ lead): E A x2
CHORUS:
E C#m
You cut my hair, you left red ink everywhere
B A B
Do my hands tell a story? Is it boring?
E C#m
You cut my hair, you left red ink everywhere
B A B
Do my hands tell a story? Is it boring?
VERSE: (w/ lead)
E C#m B
What I’d give to force your sigh, what I’d give to see you cry
E C#m B
What I’d give for your caress to see your blue cotton dress balled up on the floor
E C#m B
Certain memories are the problem certain drunken lines are the shame
E C#m B A
Seven hundred miles and four years I can’t fight the flame; it burns
CHORUS:
E C#m
You cut my hair, you left red ink everywhere
B A B
Do my hands tell a story? Is it boring?
E C#m
You cut my hair, you left red ink everywhere
B A B
Do my hands tell a story? Is it boring?
OUTRO: (w/ lead)
E
Was I wishing on satellites?
Tell me how you’ve been doing that trick
I’m just wishing the flame away
Now I’m wishing the flame away
