Biografía:
Max Bemis is frontman for the popular California rock group Say Anything.
On April 4, 2009, Bemis married Sherri DuPree of the band Eisley and now resides in Tyler, Texas.
Max suffers from bipolar disorder. Unsatisfied with songs of Say Anything's first CD, Baseball, he refuses to play any songs off of it when performing in concert. He will occasionally pull out "A Walk Through Hell" or "Baseball, But Better", but for the most part the songs he prefers to perform live with his band are off of ".

Max Bemis and the Painful Splits
Notes:
(1) During the verse, the Dsus4-D means that the normal length for one chord is split
between the two.
It's just a stylistic thing, not really necessary but more like the recording.
(2) In the chorus he plays Em7 8 times and Cadd9 4 times at normal tempo, then 7 double
time stopping short.
But I'm sure you could pick it up if you listen to it.
(3) I'm not sure if there is actually a Cadd9 in the verse, but I think so.
It feels like it belongs, and it sounds good, so whatever.
I've tried to make this as exact as possible, but these are some pretty lo-fi recordings
and Youtube vids so it's hard to make out some of it.
It works for playing the song, but if you have something better, correct me.
Don't just whine or berate me if you think it's wrong. Thanks!
Standard Tuning
Chords:
Em7 (022033)
Cadd9 (x32033)
G (320033)
Dsus4 (xx0233)
D (xx0232)
Em7 Cadd9
I seem to split my jeans
G Dsus4-D
With each stride that I take
Em7 Cadd9
Muddled by the past
G Dsus4-D
And the ghosts of my mistakes
Em7 Cadd9
With coffee as my fuel
G Dsus4-D
Or a zombie's lurching stance
Em7 Cadd9
I pace and pry away
G Dsus4-D
With the devil's idle hands
(Chorus)
Em7 Cadd9
And I waste it all on dreams
Em7 Cadd9
Waste it all on dreams
Em7 Cadd9
Waste it all on dreams
Em7 Cadd9
Waste it all on dreams
Em7 Cadd9
God is in the sky
G Dsus4-D
And He's annoyed by my true voice
Em7 Cadd9
I choose to let Him down
G Dsus4-D
As if there ever were a choice
Em7 Cadd9
How am I even loved?
G Dsus4-D
How am I a married man?
Em7 Cadd9
Why do they even care
G Dsus4-D
Why I'm allowed to start a band?
(Chorus)
Solo: Verse chords x2
Here's what I play. It may not be exact, but you get the idea. It's just supposed to be
the melody.
In terms of leads I have no clue as to what Max is ever doing, nothing I do ever sounds
exactly right.
(I've only tabbed the high strings because it's easier to read)
