Tuning: 1/2 step down
I tabbed this while watching him play an acoustic version Live. This is as close as I
could possibly get it.
If you chose to use full chords for D, A, and Bm, it sounds best if they are only used
in the final chorus. The chords below sound best for the rest of the song, in my opinion.
D A Bm G or G
The second G should really only be used in the chorus, if that.
Intro (1)
OR Intro (2)
(there is some sliding and stuff going on here but I didn't tab it in)
[D] I can still re[A]member
The words and what they [Bm]meant
As we etched them with our [G]fingers
In years of wet cement[D]
The days blurred into each [A]other
Though everything seemed [Bm]clear
We cruised along at [G]half speed
But then we shifted gears
[Bm] We [A]ran like v[G]ampires from a [D]thousand burning [A]suns
[Bm] But [A]even t[G]hen we should have [A]stayed
But we ran awa[Bm]y[G]
Now [D]all my friends [A]gone
[Bm]Maybe we?ve out[G]grown all the [D]things that we once [A]loved
Run a[Bm]way[G]
But what [D]are we running [A]from ?
A [Bm]show of hands from [G]those in this [D]audience of [A]one
Where [Bm]have [A]they [G]gone ?
[D] Identities ass[A]ume us
As nine and five add [Bm]up
Synchronizing [G]watches
To the seconds that we lost[D]
I looked up and [A]saw you
I know that you saw [Bm]me
We froze but for a [G]moment
In empathy
[Bm] I brought [A]down the [G]sky for you but [D]all you did was [A]shrug
[Bm] You [A]gave my [G]emptiness a [A]name
But you ran awa[Bm]y[G]
Now [D]all my friends [A]gone
[Bm]Maybe we?ve out[G]grown all the [D]things that we once [A]loved
Run a[Bm]way[G]
But what [D]are we running [A]from ?
A [Bm]show of hands from [G]those in this [D]audience of [A]one
Where [Bm]have [A]they [G]gone ?
[Bm] We?re [G]all [D]okay, until the [Bm]day [G]we?re [A]not
[Bm] The [G]surface [D]shines, while the [Bm]in-[G]side [A]rots
[Bm] We [G]raced the [D]sunset and we [Bm]al-[G]most [A]won
[Bm] [G] [D] [Bm] [G]
[A] We [G]slammed the brakes, but the wheels went on
We ran awa[Bm]y[G]
Now [D]all my friends [A]gone
[Bm]Maybe we?ve out[G]grown all the [D]things that we once [A]loved
Run a[Bm]way[G]
But what [D]are we running [A]from ?
A [Bm]show of hands from [G]those in this [D]audience of [A]one
Where [Bm]have [A]they [G]gone ?
Outro: Play Intro (1) except while holding a full G chord on the other 4 strings.
