Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
================================
NOTES:
1. Use barre chords (root on the E string) with a ska/reggae rhythm.
2. E should be played as a C-shaped barre chord (root on the A string).
3. These lyrics and chords/tab are only how I interpreted the song, so feel free to
experiment/substitute/comment/etc. if you disagree!
4. Enjoy!

[VERSE 1]
A C#
I took your pictures down and off the wall today
A C#
Every time I look at them I think of yesterday
D Dm A
And I'm sorry but it's time I pack our life away
[VERSE 2]
A C#
I thought about you when I made the bed today
A C#
The left pillow untouched where your head used to lay
D Dm A
Don't be sorry, things will be better off this way
[CHORUS]
A C# D Dm
Don't be afraid to say how it is
A C# D Dm
Don't be ashamed of crushing my dreams
A C# D Dm A
Though I feel betrayed, I'm so glad I met you
C# D Dm
Oh, oh, oh... (etc.)
[QUICK SAX/ORGAN RIFF]
A C# D Dm
[VERSE 3]
A C#
This is the hardest thing I've had to just accept
A C#
Alcohol and cigarettes have filled the void you've left
D Dm A
And I'm hungry but I think I'll stay in bed today
[CHORUS]
A C# D Dm
Don't be afraid to say how it is
A C# D Dm
Don't be ashamed of crushing my dreams
A C# D Dm A
Though I feel betrayed, I'm so glad I met you
C# D Dm
Oh, oh, oh... (etc.)
[BRIDGE]
D Dm
I still remember the first time I saw you
A C# D Dm
We met because the Cake show was late
D Dm
And you looked so beautiful
A E
I had to come and ask your name
A
I had to come and ask your name
