Optimism - Jarrod Gorbel
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: adslam3
This is "optimism" off of the Ten Years Older EP. There's some weird
chords in here so there is a chord chart to help you out. I looked up some
of the weirder chords in an online dictionary so it should be pretty close.
Enjoy!

You, you don't belong

In this prison-like hospital

But I feel so responsible

And I know you feel ashamed

Just show me what you started with, that blade
Emaj Emaj7
Brought you some clean clothes

A calling card for the payphone

Magazines, headphones, CDs,
E A
To grant you a distraction

Cause I know there's no one here to take you home

Losing your voice in the crowded streets

Pulsing crunch of machinery

Oh so harsh frequency

In the city that we love

We love, we love, we love, love

Glass scattered about

Broken along with my optimism

In the city that we love

ENDING
Emaj
None of your schemes work on me
Emaj7
Smoke signals are jokes to see
C#m
The smell sticks to your clothes
A
It's on everything I own
F#m B ENDING RIFF
Like the rain that seeps through the cracks in my rubber soul
