Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
I found that the other tabs didn't have the right sound for the first chord, so
along with a video of Jake playing the song and those tabs I have transposed it to
sound closer to the actual song.
Capo 6
D = XX0032 G=320033 Em=X22000 A=XX2220 D5=X577XX C#=X477XX Bm=X24432
Intro D / G (Hammer on the A string)
D
Well I see you standing there and your eyes are unaware that
G
I've been staring at them all night wishing the brain behind them cared about
Em
the way you make me feel or how your smile makes me nervous or
A
how the fact how you exist makes me feel like I have a purpose
D
I'm sick of lying in your bed while we're both laying down you say
G
you say want me for a friend I hope you know I hate that sound
Em
but I will bite my tongue because hate when your pissed off but you should
A G
know that I need your touch like falling rain on thirsty crops but…
A D5 C# Bm G
Damn you stupid girl why won't you drop your guard
A D5 C# Bm G
The space between our lips is bound to break my ever aching heart
A D5 C# Bm G
And I am sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you more
A
So why won't you love me?
D
Well I hate your cigarettes and the men that you go see because
G
one is killing you while the other is killing me but
Em
I know you'll stay stubborn cause you'll know I'll stay alone cause
A
we both know inside your grasp is the only place I feel at home
D
Now I sit with my guitar write you one more stupid song
G
I hate the way you make me feel like I'm doing something wrong
Em
but you'll just have to deal with all the things that I have mentioned and
A G
I'll hope this song is golden like the point of my intentions but…
A D5 C# Bm G
Damn you stupid girl why won't you drop your guard
A D5 C# Bm G
The space between our lips is bound to break my ever aching heart
A D5 C# Bm G
And I am sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you more
A
So why won't you love me?
D G
D
But now the beat is done and there is nothing left to say pray to the
G
god you don't believe in that you'll love me some day
Em
so when the years go by and you forget how much I cared
A G
put in this song and sing along so your heart will be aware
A D5 C# Bm G
It's like giving up on everything that you believe
A D5 C# Bm G
To put your trust in a girl that stole your heart right off your sleeve
A D5 C# Bm G
And I am sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you more
A D
But you just wont love me
