Ab---3----|

open D string then strum the Dm, then pluck the A string etc...
------------
Verse
------------
Dm G
the clouds are holding up the dawn
Am F
they're stilts or crutches I can't tell which one
Dm G
to keep the short days looking longer
Am F
or to keep the sunlight from falling on broken legs
E (let ring)
but the night's disguise is wearing thin
---------
Chorus
---------
Am C
caught me looking through your eyes
Dm G
no I'm not doing alright
F E
I'm just as stupid and desperate as I've always been
Am C
all the uselessness I write
Dm G
just come at me with a knife
F E
come cut this sickness from my mind
F Am
help me forget about a shattered lie
F Dm
bleed my failure into something right
G B A G F# E (walk down w/ powerchords)
yeah yea........yea yea yea yea yea
thats about it...there is another verse and another chorus and stuff. You should be able
figure it out. If you can't...i dunno. Put downt the guitar and play something else.
I've spoke to rocky and alot of the stuff he plays are all in open chord format except
his new album makers. Im pretty sure on all his albums up to suicide med. he plays w/ all
strings flat. So if your trying to tab out a song. Play open chords and tune your guitar down.
Thanks to bob wood to teach me this song. Its great! Thanks bud!
