Email: fukuda@usc.edu
Tuning: Standard
Verse Chords: Bm7, A/Bm7, E/G#, A#dim? (this is different from the dim chord in the
bridge and chorus), Bm, A
Notes: Note that the chord changes are one beat before the next line in the verse (see below).
Bm7 A/Bm7 E/G# A#dim?

Notes: This doesn't have to be played, but I would just listen to the song to get the
rhythm. This is also played during the Chorus, but is not necessary since we are
already voicing the chords.

-----VERSE 1 lyrics Bm7--> (a beat before "Wake up")-----
Wake up with blood-shot eyes,[A/Bm7]
Struggled to memorize,[E/G#]
A#dim?
The way it felt between your thighs,
The pleasure that made you cry.[Bm7]
Feels so good to be bad,[A/Bm7]
Not worth the aftermath,[E/G#]
After that,
A#dim?
After that,
Bm, A
Try to get you back,
Pre-Chorus 1 and 2 Chords: Gadd9, A(bar), Bm, A, A#dim, Bm7(bar)

Gadd9 A(bar)
I still don't have a reason,
Gadd9 A(bar) Bm, A
And you don't have the time,
And it [Gadd9]really makes me wonder,
A(bar) A#dim Bm7(bar)
If I ever gave a fuck about you.

A(bar)
Give me somethin' to believe in,
Em F#(bar) A(bar) A#dim Bm7(bar)
Cause I don't believe in you anymore, anymore,
A(bar) Gmaj7
I wonder if it even makes a difference to try,
Yeah, [F#7]so this is goodbye.

-----VERSE 2 lyrics Bm7--> (a beat before "God damn")-----
God damn my spinnin' head,[A/Bm7]
Decisions that made my bed,[E/G#]
A#dim?
Now I must lay in it and,
Deal with things I've left unsaid.[Bm7]
I want to dive into you,[A/Bm7]
Forget what we're goin' through,
I [E/G#]get behind,
Make you move,
A#dim? Bm, A
Forget about the truth,
