I was actually about to draft a chord for "Weathered" by The Hotel Year when I saw that I had this half
completed from months ago. I had some trouble back then trying to figure it out, but Matthew Florio's tab
helped a bunch with the chord progressions. I also want to give credit to PLyrics.com for the lyrics. This
seems spot on. I hope you all like it!

When you took...[Verse 1]
D Em C When you took that ring off, balled it in your fist C D Em C C Eyes like a smoking gun, surprised at what you did D Em C C So don't even think for one second you're following me in D Em C C My parents are home, so is my kid
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Bm C Just go on. That house that you hate C Em D C C That house that we bought and failed to make
[Verse 2]
D Em C When you took that ring off, I sat there stunned C D Em C C Parked out in my car, surprised at what you'd done D Em C C The courage that must have took left me utterly speechless D Em C C And though it came as no surprise I still couldn't believe it [Pre-Chorus] Em D C Em D C eb|-------------------------|--------------------------| Bb|-------------------------|----------------------0~--| Gb|----0-----------------0~-|----0---------------------| Db|--2--------0------2------|--2---2----0------2-------| Ab|------0--2---2--3---3----|---------2---2--3---3-----| Eb|-------------------------|--------------------------| Em D C C You'll never be happy Em D C C You'll never be happy
[Chorus]
Em But it was all for nothing C Yeah it was all a waste G D/F# Am You held on tight and for dear life C But it was all for nothing
[Verse 3]
D Em C When you took that ring off, threw it at your feet C D Em C C You didn't say a word, much less look at me D Em C C The courage that must have took I just couldn't believe it D Em C C In that moment you were perfect, and it made all the bullshit seem worth it
[Chorus]
Em But it was all for nothing C Yeah it was all a waste G D/F# Am You held on tight and for dear life G But it was all for nothing C Yeah it was all a waste Em D/F# You held on tight
