Capo: 9
This is very easy song to play, although your hand may start to cramp after awhile…its
very high. Depending on your voice you can adjust the capo but Jason plays it on 9 in the video.
Chords –
G – 320033 (for the verse its easier to play 320003 for the switch)
Am7 – 002013
Em – 022033
Cadd9 – 032033
D – 2X0033
When Jason plays Am7 in the verses he will pull off and hammer on the B string. So the
for that would be (in this order):
002003
002013
002033
It sounds cool but takes muscle memory…but it can be played with or without this, it
fine either way. Both verses and both chorus 1 and 2 are the same, so just refer back to
tabbed ones and you shouldn’t have any trouble.
Intro: G, Am7 x2
(Verse 1)
GYou liked it so much in the cAm7ity
GYou know I could not stand it Am7there
GYou loved to get lost in the pAm7eople
GAnd pretend that they really cAm7ared
GYou know you're such a bad impAm7oster
GHiding your wings beneath yourAm7 coat
GAnd I watched your footprints makin Am7patterns
GAway from me into the Am7snow
EmNow I don't believe in Dnothing anymoCadd9re
(Chorus)
EmLove is Cadd9permanent,G not tempDorary
EmAnd it's driven Cadd9straight into our Gchest
And buDried much too dEmeep
To Cadd9just pull Gout like Dweeds in a Emgarden
It'sCadd9 permanentG
Well I'mD sorry
(Verse 2):
GSo lately I've been goin cAm7razy
Tryin to get you off my mind
Cuz thoughts of you hang just like pictures
And gather dust over the time
GWe hung them up just like real Am7lovers
And drove our nails into the wall
Cuz we thought they'd be there forever
But we weren't permanent at all
EmAnd it's getting much tooD hard to see it noCadd9w
Love is permanent not temporary
And it's driven straight into our chest
And buried much too deep
To just pull out like weeds in a garden
It's permanent
Well I'm sorry
Love is permanent not temporary
And it's driven straight into our chest
And buried much too deep
To just pull out like weeds in a garden
It's permanent
Well I'm sorry
I'm sorry
It's permanent
I'm sorry
Just continue playing Em, Cadd9, G and D until song is over.
