Intro
F5 (let it fade)
She didn't mean to deceive you, believe me
But sometimes the hardest part is conceiving
D5
The good intentions that you had
A#5
Now only came to this
D5
And although she saw the mark
G5 F5ii
The arrow missed.
F5 (let it fade)
It isn't exciting reciting the stories
Of kind words turned hurting when routine get boring
D5
Both getting tired of punk rock clubs
A#5
And both playing in punk rock bands
D5
The start was something good
G5 F5ii
But some good things must end

And she said, "It could never survive
With such differing lives
One home, one out on tour again
We may never come back
The strike of a match
The candle's buring at both ends."
RIFF 1:(x2)
RIFF 2:(x2)
And now she knows too much
And I'm too fucked up
It's awkward trying to make my move
I'll pretend that I'm fine
Show up right on time
But I know I'll never be that cool
RIFF 3:
D5
I never wanted to hold you back
A#5 D5
I'm just trying to hold on
G5 F5ii
But my chance is gone
RIFF 4:
F5 C5 A#5
I know / just where / I stand / a boy
Trapped in the body of a man and
F5 G5
I'll take what you're willing to give
A#5
And I'll teach myself to live
C5
With a walk-on part of a background shot
D5 E5
From a movie I'm not in
RIFF 1:(x4)
(3rd & 4th time with heavy palm mute and words)
She's so important
And I'm so retarded
RIFF 3:
D5
And now I realize
A#5 D5
I should have kissed you in L.A.
But I drove home all alone
G5 F5ii
As if I had a choice, anyway
RIFF 5:
C5 G5
Where are you coming from?
A#5
What are you running from?
C5
Is it so hard to see?
G5
And if you're feeling scared
A#5
Remember the time we shared
C5
You know it meant everything (everything)
D5 E5 F5
You know that it meant everything to me
(C5)
You know that it meant everything to me
RIFF 1:(x2)
I think it's pretty accurate but if there's any mistakes please e-mail. It's better to listen to
the song to know the exact picking.
