Me vs. the World Madina Lake
Me Vs. the World - Madina Lake - From Them, Through Us, To You
This is my favorite track off of Madina Lake's "From Them, Through Us, To You" album.
loud, fast, and a lot of fun to play. I hope you enjoy. If you don't have the album, go
it, and even better go see these guys live. Their shows are wicked.
I'm not sure how Madina Lake plays this song, but I play with standard tuning on the
guitar and pick around on the chords. On the electric I use drop D and play mostly power
on the bottom 3 strings. There are a few parts where the lyrics overlap (too many
not enough beats) but I tried to keep it as easy to follow as I could. Follow along
the song a few times to get the flow and rythmn down if you need. This is pretty easy song.
Thanks,
WiLL
Intro:
e|-13-----12-----| B|------------13-| G|---------------| Repeat D|---------------| 16x A|---------------| E|---------------|
Bb C-D (repeat 8x)
***** Verse 1 *****
[Dm]Sometimes I try not to [F]hate myself
For everything I [Bb]never said when you were [C]here
And so [Dm]I'm burning up [F]photographs
Of what was a [Bb]perfect past 'cause I'm still [C]here
***** Chorus *****
But I'm barely holding [F]on, where did I go [Gm]wrong
Choking on the [Bb]difference between me and the [C]world
And ever since you've been [F]gone I've been torn [Gm]apart
I know that you can't [Bb]hear me but I'm still [C]hurt
And I wish you were [Dm]here
***** Verse 2 *****
[Dm]It's so hard that I try to [F]bury it
Pretend that you [Bb]didn't exist, so I can be [C]strong
But I feel [Dm]sick, and I feel [F]diseased
'Cause everyone a[Bb]bandons me, and I can't move [C]along
***** Chorus *****
Cause I'm barely holding [F]on, where did I go [Gm]wrong
Choking on the [Bb]difference between me and the [C]world
And ever since you've been [F]gone I've been torn [Gm]apart
I know that you can't [Bb]hear me but I'm still [C]hurt
And I wish you were [Dm]here
***** Break *****
[Bb]I can not pretend you [C]didn't [D]exist
[Bb]Misery is just a [C]state of [D]mind
[Bb]Hiding from the world's no [C]way to [D]live
[Bb]So I'll convince myself that [C]I'll be [D]fine
[F] I'll be [D]fine
But [Bb]since I lost you I'm [C]barely holding on
***** Chorus *****
Cause I'm barely holding [F]on, where did I go [Gm]wrong
Choking on the [Bb]difference between me and the [C]world
And ever since you've been [F]gone I've been torn [Gm]apart
I know that you can't [Bb]hear me but I'm still [C]hurt
So I look up to the [F]stars
And wonder out [Gm]loud
Why everything I [Bb]had in life
Has fallen from my [C]arms
Can you even hear this [F]song?
I'm screaming at the [Gm]clouds
Screaming to a [Bb]galaxy
That never cared at [C]all
That I need you [Dm]here
