Almost exactly the same as the previous tab, but I added the ambient chords over the
intro and included the backing vocal lyrics on the third and fifth choruses.
INTRO
D G
And you, you're gonna walk backwards through the room
D
Does that mean I won't see you?
G
It means you'll walk backwards through the room
VERSE 1
Bm G D
Tiffany's crying, she's dying to make it out of this hell
Em A
Well I just laughed 'cause it was my job to be her help
Bm G D
I'm in my bedroom, I found me a corner where friends won't debate my health
Em A
Like "How can he save some summer night when he can't save himself?"
CHORUS 1
D
You gotta pick me up, come on and pick me
G Gm
When I'm falling down you've got to pick me up
VERSE 2
Bm G D
Cut to December and how can a scalpel tear him to skin

Reveal the walks in the park, Lord, how can a heart come from two separate organs?

Oh, well I know I know I know I know I let you down, I let you down
CHORUS 2 & 3
D
You gotta pick me up, come on and pick me

When I'm falling down you've got to pick me up
