Tabbed by Jack Cookson (Torn Asunder)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the chords and lyrics for 'In Your Wake' by Matt Skiba off his split
with Kevin Seconds. It's a great song and quite easy to play. I advise
listening to it carefully a few times before you learn it so the rhythm will
come naturally to you. Enjoy :).

Chords used:
 
These are named relative to standard tuning, but since this song is half a step
down, they will all be a semi-tone down pitch wise, but lets just go by their
standard tuning names.

          C#5     A5
And so it seems
           E5
you were to be king for a day
              C#5      A5
Don't let your dreams 
         E5
of blood hunger in the way
                C#5       A5    
You know these streets,
               E5
they lay there patiently
              B5   G#/E5    A
Awaiting your fall, like a phone call
      C#5    A5   
And I see 
         E5
you made all the right decisions
   C#5       
I believe 
     A5           E5
your head stone received the wrong inscription
       C#5   A5       E5                        B5     
Didn't read anything about how much we miss you at all
G#/E5          A5
     So with a broken stick, in dirt we scrawled

F#5 
  Here lies
A5                F#5
  our dreams come true
          A5     B5             E5
Here lies Xs for eyes on me and you

E5                        A5           B5
Want you know, I hope you got all you wanted
E5                           A5          B5
Want you to know that I took all I could take
C#5            B5              A5
  It's been so hard to see and breathe through
        B5                 E5        C#5  B5 
All the smoke left in your wake
A5          E5      C#5   B5   A5
   In your wake

Now I've seen 
         E5

   In your wake

End on a final E5 here.
