What if I can’t be, all that you need me to be
We’ve got a good thing going, we have some promises to keep.

But my addiction, it can be such a detriment
Please believe in this my dear, I am more than penitent.
(Switch to strumming, hammering on and off on the fourth string of the C chord and the
third string of the F chord, and second string of both the transitional C & G but you
know, it’s optional, unless you want to be badass like Dallas Green, durr.)
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/c/city_and_colour/little_hell_tab_ver_5.html ]
The transition part between the verses with the C & G, also has a second guitar playing
this little melody:
E|------------3------|
A|--3-----2-----0----|
D|----2-----0--------|
G|------0------------|
B|-------------------|
e|-------------------|
Am C Fmaj7 C/G6
What if everything’s, just the way that it will be
Am C Fmaj7 C/G6
Could it be that I am meant, to cause you all this grief
Am C Fmaj7 C/G6
My war ships are lying, off the coast of your delicate heart
Am C Fmaj7 C/G6
And my aim is steady and true, as it's been right from the start
Chorus:
(hammer on the third string of the last bar of the F)
G6 Am Fmaj7
There's a degree, of difficulty, in dealing with me
G6 Am Fmaj7
From my haunted past, comes a daunting task, of living through memories
G6 Am Fmaj7
If we could, just hang a mirror, on the bedroom wall
G6 Am Fmaj7
Stare into the past, and forget it all
(Here’s the little bit of the guitar on the last F of the chorus, then play one bar Am,
C, Fmaj7, C, & G without the hammer-ons before the verse.)
E|------------------------------|
A|------------------------------|
D|------------------------------|
G|--0--0h2--0--0h2-5-0h2-0-2----|
B|------------------------------|
e|------------------------------|
Am C Fmaj7 C/G6
So when we leave it'll be a quick midnight escape
Am C Fmaj7 C/G6
We'll disconnect ourselves, from all of yesterday
Am C Fmaj7 C/G6
I'll dig for water, and fashion our very own wishing well
Am C Fmaj7 C/G6
Then, we'll throw our coins down hoping to rid us of this little hell
Then the solo kicks in, background guitar is just playing the chorus chords, G, Am, F,
you know the dealio and the solo goes something like this:
(relative to capo)

G6 Am Fmaj7
There's a degree, of difficulty, in dealing with me
G6 Am Fmaj7
From my haunted past, comes a daunting task, of living through memories
G6 Am Fmaj7
If we could, just hang a mirror, on the bedroom wall
G6 Am Fmaj7
Stare into the past, and forget it all
G6
Will we get out?
Am Fmaj7
Of this little hell
You play that last little bit, like four times, and voila, you’ve got yourself a
mofawkin City and Colour song.
