Artist - Brand New Album - Deja Entendu Song - The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot Released - 2003 to play the song in the description: INSTRUCTIONS: For G: go from 2nd to 3rd fret while holding G chord on bottom A string. For D: go from 2nd to 3rd fret on E string while playing D. For C: go from 3rd fret to 5th fret. (I find that it's best to play Cadd9 instead of C, but with C it sounds good too!) G Dsus Cadd9
G
  If it makes you less sad,

                   Dsus
I will die by your hand.
I hope you find out what you want.
                      Cadd9
I already know that I am.

G
 And if it makes you less sad,

                     Dsus
We'll start talking again.
And you can tell me how vile
                      Cadd9
I already know that I am.

G
 I'll grow old

                    Dsus
And start acting my age.
I'll be a brand new day
                   Cadd9
In a life that you hate.

G
 A crown of gold

                               Dsus
And a heart that's harder than stone.
And it hurts a whole lot,
                          Cadd9
But it's missed when it's gone.

G               Dsus
 Call me a safe bet.

                   Cadd9
But I bet that I'm not.

G                      Dsus
 I'm glad that you can forgive, 

                   Cadd9
I'm only hoping as time goes by
You can forget. G Dsus Cadd9
G
 If it makes you less sad,

                     Dsus
I'll move out of the state.
You can keep to yourself,
                      Cadd9
I'll keep out of your way.

G
 And if it makes you less sad,

                            Dsus
I'll take your pictures all down.
Every picture you paint,
                    Cadd9
I will paint myself out.

G
 It's as cold as a tomb,

                      Dsus
And it's dark in your room,
When I sneak to your bed
                     Cadd9
To pour salt on your wounds.

G
 So call it quits,

         Dsus
Or get a grip.
You say you wanted a solution,
                          Cadd9
But you just wanted to be missed.

G               Dsus
 Call me a safe bet.

                    Cadd9
But I'm betting I'm not.

G                      Dsus
 I'm glad that you can forgive,

                    Cadd9
I'm only hoping as time goes by
That you can forget. G Dsus Cadd9
G
 You are calm and reposed.

                    Dsus
It lets your beauty unfold.
Pale white like the skin
                    Cadd9
Stretched over your bones.

G
 Spring keeps you ever close.

                    Dsus
You are second hand smoke.
You are so fragile and thin.
                        Cadd9
Standing trial for your sins.

G
 Holding onto your self

             Dsus
The best you can.
You are the smell before rain.
                        Cadd9
You are the blood in my veins.

G               Dsus
 Call me a safe bet.

                Cadd9
I'm betting I'm not.

G                      Dsus
 I'm glad that you can forgive,

                   Cadd9
I'm only hoping as time goes

                      G
That you can forget.
