-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Tabbed By: Tyler C

*While playing Dm during the verses there is a little run where you just hit the D STRING, SECOND FRET.

D:-2 2 ----*just listen to the song for when you hit it TWICE or FOUR times*
This little run does do a lot for the song though so it is important*

Intro:

D-    40   30   0
A- 555  444  1s3 -after last open note start strumming Dm

Cm
Were you surprised that we never spoke?

That in the still of the night, when nothing stirs I woke and I gathered up some clothes I never planned on this but it's the way it goes And now it all seems so familiar Like pages turned on calendars We get the same twelve months to fuck things up Year after year And I can't believe how down I am Like the well I'm being lowered in Now water stops, the bucket drops us farther and farther down

Am
Well, I guess that you never knew me

      F
Or at least not well enough

     Cm
So I fill my gut with that dark red wine

Until my brain shuts off and my eyes go blind You won't see me there in that thick black air, yeah I'll finally make something disappear

                 Am
Because I've been practicing disappearing

       F
And i think that I've got it down

Cm
But now there is no sun, just a cellar

Nowhere is sky, it's just that black, black dirt Expanding outwards, just echoes for answers Not that it matters if it's back or it's forwards Unhappy lovers with baskets of flowers use them as markers The place where your bed once stood in a time when it still felt good

        Am
But you'll get that feeling back

              F
Yeah, you just need some time to think

Cm
And to add up the hell, get it straight in your mind

But to calculate loss, that may take some time

        Am
But I'm sure you'll get to feeling better

          F
Yeah, I just need some time to drink

Cm
And so I'll fill my gut with that blood red wine

Until my insides swim and my veins unwind I'll be lying there in that hot white air Once that something is gone It might never reappear
