This is my first tab so i hope you like it [Intro] (2x) Bm D A Bm F#m G [Chorus]
Bm               D          A         Bm         F#m     G
Learning there's nothing to gain from advice

Bm         D       A        Bm         F#m       G
Hey doubt, come on around any time
[Verse 1]
D      A                 G         D                F#m  G
Anyhow mistakes are what lead you through life

Bm             D             A               Bm
Down and out's only if you think up and in's right
[BASE GUITAR SOLO PART(BGSP)] Bm(7th) A(7th) D(7th) Bm(7th) A(7th-w1) D(7thw1) Bm(7th) A(7th) D(7th) Bm(7th) [Chorus]
Bm                    D       A                   Bm         F#m     G
I've gone along with the sins that are versions of you

Bm                    D       A            Bm         F#m     G
But guidelines were all I had time to get through
[Verse 2]
D         A          G             D             F#m  G
It's like reading of love that's gone wrong

            Bm
If time was laid out like that

A          G               Bm
Everything would occur at once
BGSP(x1) [Bridge]
A            G                   Bm      F#m F#
And all the laws were laid down twice

A                   G              Bm      F#m F#
And the clouds were doubled in the sky

A            G                   Bm      F#m F#
And being tall meant lacking height

A            G                   Bm      A   G
And being wrong meant being right
[Chorus]
Bm
You're perfect

D               A          Bm         F#m     G
You fit snuggly right in the lie

Bm          D          A        Bm         F#m     G
One host is going to teach how to die
[Verse 3]
D
Lay down

    A           G          D             F#m   G
The darkness tonight is so bright

Bm
Reasons

        A            G                Bm
There's one for each time cars collide
BGSP(x1) [Bridge]
A            G                Bm      F#m F#
I hear that telling moments divide

A                      G
And the only important moments

                   Bm      F#m F#
Are the in between times

A            G                Bm      F#m F#
And being confused is an exercise

A               G            Bm
I'm missing your thoughts tonight

    A                      F#m         G
But we reach out to what's out of our sight

A               G            Bm
I'm missing your thoughts tonight

    A                      G
But we reach out to what's out of our sight
