E5 Esus2 909900
You win, I quit
Esus4 009900
I'm certain you let my hands wander your hips
E5 Esus2 909900 Esus4
just to leave me des - perate - ly
009900 E5 Esus2
(Girl) I remember your thread thin arms
909900 Esus4
I remember your hands
009900 E5 Esus2 909900 Esus4
and how easily it seemed to me
009900
they could rip me open
E5 Esus2 909900 Esus4 009900
Baby, I'm fall - ing away
E5 Esus2 909900 Esus4 009900
Baby, I'm fall - ing away
It's the same throughout. Here's the rest of the lyrics and watch the youtube video to
timing. Also he does a little hammer on/pull off on the 009900 chord (009900 to 009800
back again).
Wasted my Septembers with you stuck up in my head
Raced the days closed in the hopes that the mornings would swell again
Don't offer me rewards dear, that's a weight that I don't need
I've seen stronger men draped over your shoulder
So filled with praises, to drunk to leave
Baby, I'm falling away
Baby, I'm falling away
You were always good at putting words together
About how you always liked me better when I never came around
You were always good at putting words together
And wearing them so loud
End with "And wearing them", then play the riff again until you feel like ending it.
