Chords

"The best thing you never had" From the album "Letters (2004)" Tabbed by Etni3s. Comment: -------- Big shout out to Balta for his live version tab. Without it I would have never gotten this right. Well.. I think it's fair to say that this is pretty much a re-write of his tab. This is the album version by the way. Have fun! Now grab your guitar and rock out! Update note: Changed it to DADGAD tuning and changed the chords a bit. // Etni3s, etni3s[at]fan-chat[dot]com -------- Chords D Dmaj7 G E5 F#5 G5 G#5 A5

To get back at you? What makes it cool when

And it seems like I'm lost

Somehow my heart got lost

       G
On the way to my head and my brain cells are dead

        D
and the craziness shows

now I start to go when the green turns to red
and I should be dead when CHORUS--------------------------------------------------------------------

While my heart got shattered

     G5
like romantic roadkill

my heart is all splattered

your ego got fatter

I hope that you're flattered

Like the toilet seat never got lifted

And I pissed on your confidence
When you weren't around

How could that be?

F#5
Don't turn this around

G5
You were the one who

A5           G5           F#5    E5
Drove my ass right to the ground
