Tuning: E A D G B E

TUNE YOUR GUITAR FULL STEP DOWN I play it with six (DDUUDU)

^EmSpoken: A Buddhist on the subway tells me that What you want is rarely, if ever, what you need. And of course, I argue the point like a completely self-righteous idiot.

Sung:^Em I was looking for perfection And it found^Am me, right between the ^Emeyes ^EmAll this time we spent in bliss, You know, like all^Am things, it has to fade ^Emaway ^CThe devil says beware Cus when you ^B7ask, you might get what you ^Emwant ^CThe devil, he may care When you^B7 ask, you might get what you^Em want

^EmSpoken: So now I spend most of my time waiting for things to happen, Letting the wind take me where it will.

Sung: ^EmOnly when it's done do you lose the veil You get so b^Amlind you never see the l^Emight coming down the tracks

It keeps me hanging from a thread

Devil drives the t^Amrain, Devil pass me ^Emby

^CThis is the happy song I wrote for ^Emyou ^CThis is the happy song I never wrote for ^B7you

^GAnd after all this time, ^CAnd after all the lies ^GNever dreamed you would seem to me^B7 little more than an earthly waste of t^Gime After all these precious^C opportunities that I^G had to set things right Dissolve like reg^B7rets in heaven, they do

And she said

^EmAnata no namae^Am o yuki ni ^Emkaku Keredomo nani ^Ammo iwan^Emai. [Japanese translation: You write your name in the snow Yet say nothing.]

^CThis is the happy song^Em I wrote for you ^CThis is the happy song^B7 I never wrote for you

Tab for the end (is played on B7, but you van actually end the song with just Em, if the tab is difficult for ya:)) ------------------ -------------2---- ------1--1--1----- --2--2--2--2------ -0--0--0---------- 2----------------- I'm actually bad at this, so here you go: You can just do these strings, holding B7: 1,2,3, 2,3,4, 2,3,4, 3,4,5
