Chords
Intro- Bm (while guitarist 2 plays main intro riff)
to make things easier for you i thought i would tab the intro riff so your not just
playing a b chord on its own like a lemon.
Intro/Riff: e|-------------------------------------| B|-----3-6-7-6---------3-6-7-6---------| G|----4--------7-4-4-4---------7-4-----| D|-------------------------------------| A|-------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------|
Verse
Bm Am F*m G Bm It's not just the pain, the pain in my back Am F*m G Bm That laughs in my face, my face every night Am F*m G Or the poison that took my lungs Bm Am F*m G That keeps me from feeling warm.
Chorus
D Am G But how could a rooftop view in London D Am G Look just the same as one in Brooklyn? D Am G Nothing has changed but now I fight with words F*m Bm And I can't see so good.
pre verse
(stay on bm and guitarist 2 play intro riff again)
verse
Bm Am F*M G Bm And there's got to be more, much more than this. Am F*m G Bm I got pages of dreams, they're covered in piss Am F*m G And the poison that took my soul, Bm Am F*m G It keeps me from feeling anything.
Chorus
D Am G And how could a rooftop view in London D Am G Look just the same as one in Brooklyn? D Am G Nothing has changed but now I fight with words F*m Bm And I can't see so good.
Bridge
Bm D G Am Bm D And now I fight with the words, G Am Bm D And now I fight with the words, G Am Bm D F*m G Now I fight with the words.
Chorus
D Am G And how could a rooftop view in London D Am G Look just the same as one in Brooklyn? D Am G Nothing has changed but now I fight with the words, F*m Bm And I can't see so good.
