Song: Write This Down Artist: Maxïmo Park Album: The National Health (2012) Adapted from Riffstation's version, it's my first tab so please edit to improve! [Intro] G F Am C [Verse 1]
Am                          G
You said you wanted someone just like me

                           F
you let me read it in your diary

Dm
I'd like to write this out of history

G
it was an awkward patch

F        C
I had an itch to scratch
[Pre-chorus]
F#m          A           
We spent the summer kissing

F#m           A 
in a basement room
learning all the rules
F#m                          A         
you made them up as you went along

              F#m            A
and then your passion cooled
you really had me fooled [Chorus]
Dm               G 
I'm not gonna be around

           C          F
you better write this down

Dm                        G
I'm gonna leave without a sound

           C          F
you better write this down
C Am F C [Verse 2]
Am                      G
I didn't really need to hear the facts

C                          F
but you know me I couldn't help but ask

Dm             C            F
and now you're telling me I need to relax

G
I chose the warmest day

F
to rain on your parade
[Pre-chorus]
F#m                          
I learned to love the sickly sweet

            A  
in order to meet
all of my body's needs
F#m          
you swore to keep me in your nest

                     A
how could you tell a lie
about the birth of a child? [Chorus]
Dm                G
I won't always be around

           C          F
You better write this down

Dm                        G
I'm gonna leave without a sound

           C          F
You better write this down (day by day)

Dm             G
we assemble it all

            C       F 
and then we tear it away (day by day)

Dm             G
we assemble it all

            C       F
and then we tear it away

Dm 
assemble it all

C              
assemble it all

Dm
assemble it all

C
assemble it all
[Bridge]
Dm    G  Dm        G    
Stealing post-punk posters

Dm         G       Dm
from your sister's room

G        C      Dm          G
Gossamer voices rising from speakers

     Dm      C     G     C
in a prefabricated plume

E
Here's an entry for your diary:

Dm

Dm                       G
I'm gonna leave you underground

           C          F
You better write this down (day by day)

Dm             G
we assemble it all

            C       F 
and then we tear it away (day by day)

I'm gonna leave without a sound

You better write this down
