BAND: Mayday Parade
Song: Miserable At Best
TUNING: FULL STEP DOWN- DGCFAD
None of the other tabs sound right for this song or "perfect" for that matter, so me and
brother decided to give it a shot. It is originally played on piano and im sure there
other ways to play it but im almost positive this is 100% correct. If not its really
really close. Awesome song and enjoy =)

-VERSE 1-
E
Katie, don't cry, I know
B C#m
You're trying your hardest
B
And the hardest part is letting
E
Go of the nights we shared
B C#m B
Ocala is calling and you know it's haunting
A B C#m B
But compared to your eyes, nothing shines quite as bright
A B C#m B
And when we look to the sky, its not mine, but I want it so
-PRE-CHORUS-
E
Let's not pretend like you're alone tonight
B C#m
(I know he's there and)
B
You're probably hanging out and making eyes
(while across the room, he stares)
A B
I bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
C#m A B
And ask my girl to dance, and she'll say yes
-CHORUS-
A B C#m
Because these words were never easier for me to say
B A
Or her to second guess
B
But I guess
E C#m(446600)
That I can live without you but
A B
Without you I'll be miserable at best
-VERSE 2-
E
You're all that I hoped I'd find
C#m
In every single way
B
And everything I could give
Is everything you couldn't take
E B C#m
Cause nothing feels like home, you're a thousand miles away
B
And the hardest part of living
Is just taking breaths to stay
A B
Because I know I'm good for something
C#m A
I just haven't found it yet
B
But I need it
REPEAT PRE-CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL
E A B C#m A B
-BRIDGE-
E A B C#m A B
Ladada ladadada ladada laahahaooh ohoohh
E A B
And this will be the first time in a week
C#m
That I'll talk to you
A
And I can't speak
B
It's been three whole days since I've had sleep
Cuz I dream of his lips on your cheek
E A
And I got the point that I should leave you alone
B C#m
But we both know that I'm not that strong
A B
And I miss the lips that made me fly
REPEAT PRE-CHORUS
-FINAL CHORUS- (Changes Slightly)
A B C#m
Because these words were never easier for me to say
B A
Or her to second guess
B
But I guess
E C#m(446600)
That I can live without you but
A B
Without you I'll be miserable
E C#m (446600)
And I can live without you
A B
But without you I'll be miserable
E C#m (446600)
And I can live without you but
A B E
Oh, without you I'll be miserable at best
