THE ONLY EXCEPTION- Paramore Album- Brand New Eyes Tabbed by: Ibaneztributer Tuning: Standard, capo'd on 2nd fret Chords used B - - - - x 2 4 4 4 2 F#m - - - 2 4 4 2 2 5 E - - - - x x 2 4 5 4 C#m - - - x 4 6 6 5 4 A - - - - 5 7 7 6 5 5 Each dash between chords represents 4 beats in the song. The strumming pattern looks like this: ___ ___ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | / /-/ /-/ These are 8th notes, if you couldn't tell. All 8th notes are to be played in a "swing" pattern. So, each set of 8th notes should sound like an 8th note triplet minus the middle note, for all of you band kids and music-savvy people.

Lyrics (courtesy of http://www.directlyrics.com/) Intro Verse 1 When I was younger I saw my daddy cry And curse at the wind He broke his own heart And I watched As he tried to reassemble it And my momma swore that She would never let herself forget And that was the day that I promised I'd never sing of love If it does not exist But darling, Chorus 1 You, are, the only exception You, are, the only exception You, are, the only exception You, are, the only exception Fill Verse 2 Maybe I know, somewhere Deep in my soul That love never lasts And we've got to find other ways To make it alone Keep a straight face And I've always lived like this Keeping a comfortable, distance And up until now I had sworn to myself that I'm Content with loneliness Because none of it was ever worth the risk Chorus 2 Well you, are, the only exception Well you, are, the only exception You, are, the only exception You, are, the only exception Interlude I've got a tight grip on reality But I can't Let go of what's in front of me here I know you're leaving In the morning, when you wake up Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream Ohh--- Chorus 3 You, are, the only exception You, are, the only exception You, are, the only exception You, are, the only exception You, are, the only exception You, are, the only exception You, are, the only exception You, are, the only exception Outro And I'm on my way to believing Oh, And I'm on my way to believing Great song, have fun with it ^_^
