*NOTE* This is really done on a 5 or 6 string bass,
Dropped down a whole step. I did this in standerd tuning
for the guitar. I guess you can drop your guitar to an
"A" tuning but I don't know how it will play or sound.
[Intro]

[Verse 1]
G# G#m
Tonight
E G#m
Petals fall from pink roses
E G#m
And everything I thought I knew
E
I suppose is a lie
G# G#m
Everything dies and everything changes
G# G#m E G# G#m
I was never one to have a green thumb
E G#m
And I’m green with envy
E G#m
Of the me that was young and unwise and unknowing
G#m
The thorns are showing
E G#m
The thorns are showing
E G#m
The thorns are showing
E G# C#m E
The thorns are showing
[Chorus]
G#m E
But you taste best when you're in full bloom
G# E
Lay in my teeth, my sweet love trophy
G#m E
You can’t be killed if I rip from the roots
G#
Take it with grace
C#m E
I’m dumb and I’ll chase
G# G#m E
I’m young and I’ll waste you away
G#m C#m E
I’m young and I’ll waste you away
G#m C#m E
I’m young and I’ll waste you away
G#m C#m E
I’m young and I’ll waste you away
[Interlude]

Tonight
B
If you leave me I’ll flood out your fire
C#m
Why don’t you love me like I love you like
G#m
I want you like I need you
C#m
Everything dies
G# G#m E
It’s always too soon to lose to the moon
G# G#m
And you’re freaking them out
E
And you look like a fool
G#m E
And you’re starting to know it
G# G#m
Your thorns are showing
[Chorus]
G#m E
But you taste best you when you’re in full bloom
G# E
Lay in in my teeth, my sweet love trophy
G#m E
You can’t be killed if I rip from the roots
G#
Take it with grace
G#m
I’m dumb and I chase
E
I’m young and I’ll waste you away
G#m E
I’m young and I’ll waste you away
G#m C#m E
I’m young and I’ll waste you away
G#m G#
I’m young and I’ll waste you away
