Strumming
Tuning: G C E A
This is as close as I could get it to sounding like the real thing.
The third and fourth tabulature lines in the intro can be swapped out for playing the previous line twice
more, but with the N.C. removed. The two are played simultaneously in the original song.
Also, the last two tab lines of the intro are played over almost the entire rest of the song in the original.
Do with this information what you will.

[Verse 1]
GI remember the view out the back of the car
BLeft the front door wide open
Maybe it's a Emsign that we shouldn't beC goin'
I didn't reaDlise it'd be so D7hard
You and Gme, sittin' on the trampolBine
I think one time we fell asEmleep
Woke Cup and felt like it had been Dweeks
And D7now it truly has been
G (Forgive yourBself)
It wasn't meant to be but it's funny how
EmLife dealt this Ccheat
To someone who could Dhandle it so D7well
[Chorus 1]
G And while you sleep in the pouring Brain
Just know I'll be with you someEmday
And I'll Chave a good one 'til Dthen
D7Just like you told me

Sink-tall while we brush our Emteeth
Striped Cshirts and hide and Dseek

And while you sleep in the pouring Brain
Just know I'll be with you someEmday
And I'll Chave a good one 'til Dthen
