The Grand Optimist City and Colour
I haven't uploaded any tabs before so this is my first one but it sounds just about spot on.
This song is from Dallas Green's new album and it's absolutely amazing. I'm not entirely
sure about chord names but they're written down there.

Intro: C Em Am C Em Am
Verse:
[C]I fear I'm [Em]dying of compli[Am]cations
Compli[C]cations due to [Em]things that I've left [Am]undone
That all my [C]debts will be left [Em]unpaid
Feel like a [Am]cripple without a cane
I'm like a [C]jack of all trad[Em]es
Who's a master of [Am]none
Verse 2:
[C]Then there's my [Em]father
[Am]He's always looking on the bright side
Saying [C]things like "[Em]son life just ain't that [Am]hard"
He is the [C]grand optimis[Em]t
I am the [Am]world's poor pessimist
You give him [C]buttons sometimes[Em]
And he will escape [Am]unscarred
Pre-Chorus/Chorus:
[G]I guess I take after my [Am]mother x2
I used to be quite resilient
Gain no strength from counting the beads on a rosary
Now the wound has begun to turn
Another lesson that has gone unlearned
But this is not a cry for pitty or for sympathy
I guess I take after my mother x2
