Biography:
Secondhand Serenade is a one man band from Menlo Park, California. John Vesely, 30, sings and plays guitar and piano. His music is characterized by multitrack recording so he can create the sound of a band by himself. He uses multitrack recording to create vocal harmonies, and a lead acoustic guitar over strummed chords.
After the breakup of Sounds Like Life, featuring himself and Ronnie Day, Vesely started writing and performing his songs solo under the name Secondhand Serenade.

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!
so far no tab has been right, yes the chords are D, Bm, A & G, but what no one has
realised is that the guitar is tuned down 2 steps, so the D chord now becomes an E
chord, the Bm is C#, A is a B & the G is an A.
played like this...
E C# B A
e down to D 0 0 0 0
B down to A 0 0 0 0
G down to F 9 6 4 2
D down to C 9 6 4 2
A down to G 7 4 2 0
E down to D 0 x x x
i know it sucks to untune your guitar but if u wanna play it right then thats how its done.
& im only doing the chords, not the picking. im 100% sure that they are the right chords,
im not 100% sure if ive put them all in the right places.. so play along with the song
then you'll
know if im right.
thankyou
Verse 1:
E C#
It's four AM, I'm waking up to your perfume
B
Don't get up, I'll get through on my own
A
I don't know if I'm home
E
Or if I lost the way into your room
C#
I'm spiraling into my doom
B A
I'm feeling half alive but I know one day
B
You and I will be free,
C#
To live and die by our own rules,
E
Free..
A
Despite the fact that men are fools.
Chorus:
E A C#
I'm almost alive, and I need you to try
B
And save me.
E A
It's okay that we're dying,
C# B A
But I need to survive tonight, tonight.
Verse 2:
E-C#-B-A
E
Well excuse me while I get killed softly,
C# B
Heart slows down and I can hardly tell you I'm okay
A
At least 'til yesterday,
E
You know you caught me off my highest guard,
C#
Believe me when I say it's hard.
B
We'll get through this tonight
A B
And I know one day you and I will be free
C#
To live and die by our own rules,
E
Free..
A
Despite the fact that men are fools.
Chorus:
E A C#
I'm almost alive, and I need you to try
B
And save me.
E A
It's okay that we're dying,
C# B A
But I need to survive tonight, tonight.
Bridge:
B C#
And you touch my hand ever so slightly
Girl we're not ready for this yet
B A
And the deadly look she cast upon me
I won't regret, I won't regret
B C# B A
I won't regret. I won't regret...
E B
And I was trying to disappear,
A
But you got me wrapped around you
I can hardly breathe without you
E B
I was trying to disappear
A
But I got lost in your eyes now,
You brought me down to size now.
Chorus: 1 strum
E A C#
I'm almost alive, and I need you to try
B
And save me.
E A
It's okay that we're dying,
C# B A
But I need to survive tonight, tonight.
Chorus: strumming
E A C#
I'm almost alive, and I need you to try
B
And save me.
E A
It's okay that we're dying,
C# B A
But I need to survive tonight, tonight.
C# B A
I need to survive tonight, tonight
