Fantastic song by an awesome band. I wanted to do this cover for a gig but I couldn't
the chords so I figured I'd draw it up myself and post it online. If you have any
or concerns about it please don't hesitate to e-mail me; nlt0002@auburn.edu
(p.s. the timing for the little riffs are off but the notes are there so you can just
to the song to figure it out.)
Am C
Oh my God
G Em Am C
Tell me this won't last forever
G Em Am C
Tell me that I'm not alone
G Em Am C E
Tell me this will come together now

Am
Packed my things up just the other day
C
Said my goodbyes to all these things I've saved
F
Out in the driveway we laugh under the moon
G Am
Among my friends for now but I'll be leavin' soon
C F
Many days from now I'm sure
G Am
I'll be back among your graces
C F
And with you I won't pretend
F
No not at all, Oh

Am
Crack the morning, up and running quick
C
No sleep again last night that's the way it is
F
Out in the open under broken skies
G
I feel every foot step I see everybody's eyes
Am
Oh and this is summer, in another world
C
Far from the driveway and my baby girl
F
Soon come the winter and with it quiet nights
G
And darker days and darker fights
C F
Many days from now I'm sure
G Am
I'll be back among your faces
C F
And with you I won't pretend
E
No not at all

Am F
Oh, the theater is burnin
C G
Over at midnight but never like this
Am F
Hot under the fire,
C G
The stars are all falling but never like this
G F
No, I hope you never see this
Am F
Wait, wait for my love
C G
Don't forget me never let me go
Am F
If you wait, wait for my love
C G
I'll remember never let you go
F
Until I'm fine, fine, fine
F C
Until I'm fine, fine, fine

To be back in my room

I have the same dream every night

Just me, among my things

No one else is there, there's no one left to fight,

Many nights from now I know

Until then I'll just pretend
