Tuning: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
This is for the version from The Human Highlight Reel but it's the same key
and virtually identical to the version from the Transit split.
Tune down a half-step.
Mostly power chords, but you can open things up in the choruses if you prefer.
[Verse]
The eGnd's coming quick
But nAot quick enough
You F#msay that you care
But I'm caGlling your bluff
Because I oGnce was in love
But lAove's fucking blind
So as I sF#mwallow these pills
I pBmray for the sAunshine
I sGpeak all day
And nAot speak enough
F#mSleep all day
And Gnot sleep it off
I'm fGorce fed the weeks
AThrow up the nights
F#mCurse my existence
and tBmurn off the liAghts
N.C.Curse my existence
N.C.and turn off the lights
GCurse my existence
and tAurn off the lights F#m Bm A
[Pre-Chorus]
GNot asDleep till the mBmorning A
GThis can hDappen without aAny warning
[Chorus]
GYou and I were meant to be
the gBmlue that held the wAorld together
GYou and I were meant to be
the gBmlue that held the wAorld together
GYou and I were meant to be
the gBmlue that held the wAorld together
GYou and I were meant to be
the gBmlue that held the wAorld together
[Verse]
The eGnd's coming quick
N.C.But not quick enough
N.C.You say that you care
N.C.But I'm calling your bluff
N.C.Because I once was in love
N.C.But love's fucking blind
N.C.So as I swallow these pills
I pBmray for the sAunshine
GScreaming you just hAaven't been listening
F#mGirl you don't know the hGalf of it
GYou can't call this pAaradise
if it's aF#mlways been hell Bm A
[Pre-Chorus]
GNot asDleep till the mBmorning A
GThis can hDappen without aAny warning
[Chorus]
GYou and I were meant to be
the gBmlue that held the wAorld together
GYou and I were meant to be
the gBmlue that held the wAorld together
GYou and I were meant to be
the gBmlue that held the wAorld together
GYou and I were meant to be
the gBmlue that held the wAorld together
[Bridge]
GWaking up is losing everything
N.C.(You know I loved you more)
'Cuz last night I had eDverything that I wanted
(You know I loved you mGore)
N.C.And there's something golden we can't fight
N.C.Playing gods in this ice city
N.C.(No! you know I loved you more)
N.C.Freaking out is crucial
And the pDaranoia
Amakes me love you mGore Bm A
GYou and I were meant to be
the gBmlue that held the wAorld together G Bm A G Bm
I gAuess you're ill infBmormed G D Bm
GNo I love you mDore...
