BETTER HOMES AND GARDENS - Taking Back Sunday

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

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
(Held on tight)
Am
And for dear life
(For dear life)
C
But it was all for nothing
(Held on tight and for dear life)

You'll never be happy


[Chorus]

Cause it was all for nothing

It was all a waste

You held on tight and for dear life

But it was all for nothing
(We held on tight and for dear life)

[Outro]
Em D/F# Am
When you took off that ring
(We held on tight and for dear life)
C
When you took off that ring
(We held on tight)
