Intro
NC Riff
You can take me away from my sorrow, but you can't take away my scars.
I stand in the middle of the highway, playing chicken with the cars.
D Dbm Bm E-Bsus4-B
It's not that I'm destructive; I just want to feel your pain.
CHORUS 1
A D Bm E
If there was any way, I could have known,
A D Bm E
I would trip and fall, away from you.
A D Bm E
If there was anything, I could have done,
F#m E D Riff (x2)
To stay in love with you, - with you…
NC Riff
Wish I could say to you what you are to me, but I know it would make you sad.
You are too good to be my lover, but you've been the greatest dad, I ever had.
D Dbm Bm E-Bsus4-B
You made my life so lovely, I just had to mess it up.
CHORUS 2
A D Bm E
If there was any way, I could have known,
A D Bm E
I would trip and fall, from your grace.
A D Bm E
If there was anything, I could have done,
F#m E D
To stay in love with you
BRIDGE (fingerpicked)
F#m F#m/F F#m/E Bb7b5 D
If I knew, I'd do it twice, just to make sure that I did it right.
SOLO Break (over chorus chords)

I’d be in love with you. With you.

I hope you enjoy this, my first submitted tab. It’s a catchy tune, fun to play
with a second guitar; that player can riff on a palm-muted A5 during the verses
and also cover the solo (in E).
