I’ve been searching for this tab everywhere but just couldn’t find one that sounded
So here is the way I play it! Any suggestions please send me an email.

There are some chords that I don’t know the name so I called them X and Z as you’ll see
Pay attention in the intro chorus he just plays Dm and Gm. These also repeats again
the last chorus.

Hanging on a warning
Gm Oh... The joke is on you Dm You said you were pretending
Here's to unhappy endings
Gm A Oh... The joke is on you Dm To make sure yesterday doesn't repeat
I took a shortcut home
A left on the street
Gm A I know they won't find me here Dm I found out how to make mama proud
Be real quiet, don't talk too loud
Gm A I try, try to disappear A#m My life is for the taking X C Breakdown is awaking me
Z
I'm ending all this pain
Dm
When you find me in the morningHanging on a warning
Gm A Oh... The joke is on you Dm You said you were pretending
Here's to unhappy endings
Gm A Oh... The joke is on you Dm This is my last day
Should have been my first kiss
Think to myself will I ever be missed?
Gm A I hope... Or maybe I don't care Dm I wear my T around my neck
I love them so much
Gonna love them to death
Gm A Tonight... I See the world through my eyes A#m My life is for the taking X C Breakdown is erasing me
Z
I'm ending all this pain
[CHORUS]
D My great escape Gm Is my biggest mistake C I think you better turn around A Don't throw it away
Today... Today...
Dm
When you find me in the morningHanging on a warning
Gm Oh... The joke is on you Dm You said you were pretending
Here's to unhappy endings
Gm A Oh... The joke is on you D The joke is on you Gm The joke is on you C The joke is on you A The joke is on you
