Tuning:Standard
I saw the previous version and it was in the right key but some
of the chords were wrong so here's the proper version plz rate:)
E A B C#m NOTE: You can also place a capo on 2nd and play
e|-0--0--0--0---| D,G,A,Bm in place of E,A,B,C#m but i prefer
B|-0--0--0--0---| to play without a capo as it is somewhat easier
G|-1--2--4--6---| and sounds more fuller
D|-2--2--4--6---|
A|-2--0--2--4---|
E|-0--0--0--0---|
Intro: B, C#m, E, A X2
Verse 1
[E]I used to think one [B]day we'd tell the story of [A]us
How we met and the sparks flew instantly
[E]People would s[B]ay, "they're the lucky on[A]es"
[E]I used to know my pl[B]ace was a spot next to y[A]ou
Now I'm searching the room for an empty s[E]eat
'Cause lately I don't even k[B]now what page you're [A]on
[B]Oh, a simple compli[C#m]cation
M[E]iscommunic[A]ations lead to [E]fall out
[A]So many things that I wish you knew
[B]So many walls up I can't break through
Chorus
[E]Now I'm standing alo[B]ne In a crowded r[A]oom And we're not speaking
[E]And I'm dying to k[B]now Is it killing y[A]ou Like it's killing me?
[C#m] I don't know what to [B]say Since a twist of f[E]ate When it all broke d[A]own
And the s[C#m]tory of us Looks a l[B]ot like a tragedy n[A]ow
Next chapter
B,C#m,E,A
Verse 2
[E]How'd we end up this w[B]ay?
See me nervously p[A]ulling at my clothes And trying to look busy
[E]And you're doing your be[B]st to avoid me[A]
[E]I'm starting to think one d[B]ay I'll tell the story of u[A]s
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/taylor_swift/the_story_of_us_crd_ver_3.html )
How I was losing my mind when I saw you here
[E]But you held your p[B]ride like you should have held [A]me
[B]Oh, we're scared to see the en[C#m]ding
[E]Why are we pret[A]ending this is no[E]thing?
I'd[A] tell you I miss you but I don't know how
I[B]'ve never heard silence quite this loud
Chorus
[E]Now I'm standing alo[B]ne In a crowded r[A]oom And we're not speaking
[E]And I'm dying to k[B]now Is it killing y[A]ou Like it's killing me?
[C#m] I don't know what to [B]say Since a twist of f[E]ate When it all broke d[A]own
And the s[C#m]tory of us Looks a l[B]ot like a tragedy n[A]ow
B,C#m,E,A X2
Bridge
[E]This is looking like a contest
[A] Of who can act like they care less
But [C#m]I liked it better when y[B]ou were on my s[A]ide
[E]The battle's in your hands now[A] But I would lay my armor down
If y[C#m]ou'd say you'd r[B]ather love than fi[A]ght
[A]So many things that you wish I knew
[B]But the story of us might be ending soon
Chorus
[E]Now I'm standing alo[B]ne In a crowded r[A]oom And we're not speaking
[E]And I'm dying to k[B]now Is it killing y[A]ou Like it's killing me?
[C#m] I don't know what to [B]say Since a twist of f[E]ate When it all broke d[A]own
And the s[C#m]tory of us Looks a l[B]ot like a tragedy
n[A]ow now, now[E] [B] [A] And we're not speaking
[E]And I'm dying to k[B]now Is it killing y[A]ou Like it's killing me?
[C#m] I don't know what to [B]say Since a twist of f[E]ate
'cause we're going d[A]own And the st[C#m]ory of us
Looks a [B]lot like a tragedy n[A]ow
The End :)
