This song is tabbed after Josh’s live video performance for Spinner Interface from
and is 99% correct. Remember this is the acoustic version tabbed exactly after how he
it at that performance as well as on “CMCH.” I tabbed the chords in order with the
but when I posted it, the format was all off so I just wrote the chords and will leave the
up to you.

It was a really cold day in London
A rainy, rainy afternoon
She told me she was coming over
She had some news

Always looking over her shoulder
For promises that never come
I could be the one to console her
A ray of sun
Chorus: DMaj7, then A D E x3, then DMaj7 E DMaj7

I am not the kid, to tell you how to love or how to live
And if you think that I am just a bridge, then I'll be leaving now
This bridge is falling down

You really should stay off that corner
Someday someone will get killed
