Tabbed this song out by ear. I think I have it right. There are no tabs out for any of
Mike's songs. One of the best Indie artists I've ever heard. This one is off the second
album Autumn Ashes. Took me a while to figure out I think this is right please email me
with any suggestions!!
Tuning: Standard
Capo on 3rd Fret

He does a couple of different jazz chords here and uses a combination of fingerpicking.
This part I simplified because I couldn't figure them out.

Lyrics
Verse
So give me one good reason why
I should be here,
You’ve walked in and out of my life, since the moment, that I met you
Chorus
And I’m fallin’ faster into you, like time
And I’m fallin’ faster into you, like black glass painted white..
Verse 2
Now you show up at my door saying I’m here, and everything is fine
But you’ve been gone too far too long, and I’ve moved on with my life
Chorus
Bridge
So hear me, as I write these words
you’re in and out of nowhere and its time for you to find yourself
Chorus
breakdown
I’m fallin’ faster into you
