Capo 2
Dsus2 xx0230 (D with high E string open)
Bm x24432
Intro:
Dsus2 G Bm A G (x2)
Verse 1:
Dsus2 G
When I was young, I knew everything
Bm A G
She, a punk who rarely ever took advice
Dsus2 G
Now I'm guilt-stricken, sobbin' with my head on the floor
Bm A G
Stop a baby's breath and a shoe full of rice, no
Pre-Chorus:
Bm A G
Can't be held responsible
'Cause she was touching her face
I won't be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place
Chorus:
Dsus2 G
For the life of me, I cannot remember
Bm A G
What made us think that we were wise
Dsus2
And we'd never compromise
G
For the life of me, I cannot believe
Bm A G
We'd ever die for these sins, we were merely freshmen
(Intro again, once)
Verse 2:
My best friend took a week's vacation to forget her
His girl took a week's worth of Valium and slept
And now he's guilt-stricken, sobbin' with his head on the floor
Thinks about her now and how he never really wept, he says
(Pre-chorus, chorus)
Bridge:
F#m G D A (x4)
Hey yah eyah eyah eyaha (starting on the second set of chords)
Verse 3:
We try to wash our hands of all of this
We never talk of our lacking relationships
And how we're guilt-stricken sobbin' with our heads on the floor
We fell through the ice when we tried not to slip, we'd say
(Pre-chorus, chorus)
(Intro, as the outro)
