Tuning is every string full step down, so D-G-C-F-A-D
But I will use the standard names for the chords.
Chords used: Fm, E, A, D
Listen to the song to get strumming and timing right!
Intro: Fm, E, Fm, D, A, Fm, A, Fm, E
They tried to keep their [Fm]arms 'round us
They told us it was [A]free
Their coffee and their [Fm]crucifixions burned
Put scars on both our [E]knees[D]
That wishful drinking [Fm]summer
So sweet and sinful you and [A]me
Rolling 'round your [Fm]parents hardwood floor
Getting high out in the [E]heat you and [D]me
You were [E]lonely and I had a [Fm]song
They [D]told you we did [A]wrong
And we [D]hung there on that [A]cross in your old [E]room
[Fm] I lost faith you were trying to believe (x2)
[E] I lost faith you were trying to believe
I play the [Fm]memory in my head like a [D]symphon[A]y[Fm][A][Fm][E]
I tried to keep my [Fm]arms 'round you
In the end it wasn't [A]me
The pharmacy [Fm]receipt with shaky hands
Was all you'd really [E]need[D]
To scare you into [Fm]praying
To put your heart in [A]retreat
All that faith and [Fm]fear came racing back
Brought you to your [E]knees[D]
It was [E]lonely but I got [Fm]along
[D]Singing these ragged [A]songs
But l[D]ately I've been [A]at a loss for [E]words
[Fm] Lost faith but I'm trying to believe (x2)
[E] I lost faith but I'm trying to believe
I play the [Fm]memory in my head like a [D]symphony[A]
[A] Hey-heyei[E]ee[Fm][D]
When it's [E]lonely I'll get [Fm]along
[D]Singing these ragged [A]songs
I [D]pray you don't [A]confuse my [E]words -[E] my words
[A] I lost faith but I'm trying to believe (x2)
[E] I lost faith but I'm trying to believe
I play the [Fm]memory in my head like a [D]symphony
[A] I lost faith but I'm trying to believe (x2)
[E] I lost faith but I'm trying to believe
I play the [Fm]memory in my head like a [D]
They t[A]ried to keep their [Fm]arms 'round us
In the end it wasn't [A]me
