Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

Here's to you, the same chords that I stole

From a song that I once heard

 The Same melody I borrowed from the void

I'd rather observe than structure a narrative

The characters are thin;

The plot does not develop

It ends where it begins

Verse 2

It's on the screen, in paperbacks

In section 8 and cul-de-sacs

Electro haikus and drunk sonnets

Are moving me along

Along

Chorus

(x2)

You cut my hair

You left red ink everywhere

 Do my hands tell a story?

Is it boring?

Verse 3

(Palm-Muted)

What I'd give to force your sigh

What I'd give to see you cry

What I'd give for your caress

To see your blue cotton dress

Balled up on the floor

Certain memories are the problem

Certain drunken lines are the shame

 Seven hundred miles and four years

 I can't fight the flame; it burns

Burns, and it burns and it burns.

Chorus

(x2)

You cut my hair

You left red ink everywhere

 Do my hands tell a story?

Is it boring?

Outro

Was I wishing on satellites?

Tell me how you've been doing that trick

I'm just wishing the flame away

Now I'm wishing the flame away

Nota Bene:

On the D's in the outro, and throughout other points during the song, you can add

embellishments to make it sounds a bit more tidy, but you don't have to. If you wanna

give it

a try, then whilst you're on the regular D Major shape, hit the fourth fret on the D

string, then move it up to second, then open again. Large.
