All I Ever Wanted The Airborne Toxic Event
If there is interest, I could go through and do a full tab of the song with all the
string and guitar parts, but this tab only has the few main lines.
Capo 5 on the album
Capo 2 for the Walt Disney concert

I find the above easier, but the band actually plays it like so:

Intro
D Bm F#m x3
[D]I can only say these [Bm]things to you while you're [F#m]sleeping.
I hear the the [D]hum from the wires, the [Bm]sounds of the morning [F#m]creeping.
I [D]lie awake and [Bm]pretend you can [F#m]hear me.
D Bm F#m x2
You [D]tell that you're scared, that you're [Bm]turning into your [F#m]mother,
I [D]feel myself [Bm]turn into my [F#m]father.
We could [D]lie to each other like [Bm]they do and say we're still [F#m]happy
It's [D]easy when you're young and [Bm]you still want it so [F#m]badly.
And I [Bm]feel my [A]heart pou[G]nding
And I [Bm]think [A]I might [G]scream
I can [D]tell you that you're all I ever [A]wanted, dear
I can [Bm]utter every word you'd ever [G]hope to hear
I [D]shudder when I think that I [A]might not be here [Bm]forever, forever, forever.
D Bm F#m x2
At [D]night you whisper like a [Bm]ghost and you look so [F#m]shaken
You're so [D]quiet and small and you [Bm]tell me you want to be [F#m]taken.
I just [D]never think of you as the [Bm]kind of girl who would [F#m]say that.
You [D]suddenly seem like some [Bm]faceless thing in my [F#m]grasp.
With your [Bm]eyes so [A]wide, your face a[G]glow
Its the [Bm]face of [A]someone I don't [G]know.
I can [D]tell you that you're all I ever [A]wanted, dear
I can [Bm]utter every word you'd ever [G]hope to hear
I [D]shudder when I think that I [A]might not be here [Bm]forever, forever, forever.
D Bm F#m x7
And [Bm]all I could think is that it [A]must be a kind of re[G]bellion.
To [Bm]arm your fears like [A]soldiers and [G]slay them.
I can [D]tell you that you're all I ever [A]wanted, dear
Through the [Bm]din of your breathing while you're [G]sleeping here.
You [D]wake and ask me if I'm [A]going to be here [Bm]forever, forever, forever.
Your [D]face so twisted and your [A]eyes alight
I want to [Bm]tell you I can change it when you [G]cry at night
But [D]I'd [A]be [Bm]lying.
[D]Love [A]is [Bm]defying.
End on D
