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!
I absolutely adore this song, so I felt it necessary to attempt a tab for
this song, and with chords for people like myself who find it easier to play and
sing using chords. I hope I've done a decent job. Please pay attention to the
chord tab, I know it's easy to play the shapes as if you were in standard but bear
in mind you are in drop D.

Verse 1:
Bm D Cadd9 D9
So let's face it, this was never what you wanted
Bm D Cadd9 D9

Now blank stares and empty threats
Bm D Cadd9 D9
Are all I have, they’re all I have
Chorus:

So drown me, if you can

But I found you before I drift away

Bm D Cadd9 D9
Now you still speak of day old hate

Bm D Cadd9 D9
And how safe it is to feel safe
