Capo: 1
Kind of tricky song, and this is my first tab...so be "gentle" I guess. The
Prechorus is a little sketchy, but it's right with the music.
Capo on 1
INTRO - |: Bb-C :|
Verse:
FI really need to talk with Cyou
I keep Dmstepping on the vein
That keeps my Bblifeline flowing through.
FI wanna be your perfect stick of Cglue
But I don't feel Dmperfect at all,
A Sad and insecure flaw
FI find it hard to hold conversCation
I get swDmeaty, sick, and I wanna walk aBbway
It's not Fyou, this is strictly me in this situaCtion
I'm wondering will it eDmver go away? Just go away...
PRE-CHORUS
BbSometimes I feel like weeping
AAwake and when I'm sleeping
AbmPerfecting how to put a Fgame face on
BbThis puzzle I've been keeping
AHas been in hiding creeping
AbmOut the closet door, spilling Aout onto the floor;
CHORUS
How FloCngDm will I be Bbpicking up the FpiecCes? Dm Bb
F C Dm Bb ... C
How long will I be picking up my heart?
VERSE
FI'll be as honest as I fCeel
I'm getting more pDmaranoid, and I'm hearing things
And they nBbever turn out real. F
It feels like my heart is made of pCure steel,
It's just so hDmeavy all the time.
(little interlude here, obviously)
FYea I'm scared of death, I'm scared of liviCng
I gDmave up on the past 'cause it was unBbforgiving
FI misplaced my trust,
Watched my wCords begin to rust,
I'm a bDmalloon about to bust
I need a plBbace for reliving still -
<PRE-CHORUS>
<CHORUS>
CHORUS 2
How lFong in anCother place in tDmime,
Bb Picking up the Fpieces in the Ccorner of my Dmmind? Bb
How lFong, liviCng oh so hard toDm find,
Bb Picking up the Fpieces in the Ccorner of my Dmmind? Bb
Ends with "Whoa's" and "I still walk on / I wake up every morning," using the same
chords and timing from the chorus. Enjoy, rate and comment if there are problems.
