Play at a slow tempo. For the verses', play the 4th and 8th beat's open.
Em
I forget when word's were only word's, she knows the party makes me nervous,
C
In this stage we can't get hurt, don't try to understand me, We're too
D Em
cool to be alone, but not too crazy to get busted
Em
I found out one life just ain't enough, I need another soul to feed on, I'm
C
the flame I can't get burnt, I'm wholly understated. But I found silence in this
D Em C D
space, an on and off again attraction, and I need such amazing grace, Heaven
sweep me away.
(Chorus)
Em G D C
Love, don't change, don't come around here, don't where my heart on your sleve
Em G
like a high school letter, don't strain, 'cause nothing ever comes of it, and
D C D Em
the people we've become, well they've never been the people who we are.
Em
I strap on one horse and pray for luck, I dug another hole to bleed, I know
exactly how this work's, I need a new feel dirty.
C D Em
I don't need you crowding up my space, I just want to get inside you
C D
You can't believe the hearts you saved, giving somthing away.
(Chorus)
Em
I dreamed that the world was crumbling down, we sat on my back porch and
C D
watched it.
Em
Yeah, well I dreamed that the building's all fell down, we sat on my back porch
C
and we watched it.
Em D
Yeah well I dreamed that the world was crumbling down, we sat on my back porch
C D
and watched it, in my head I heard a sound like fifteen stranger's dancing
Em D C
But oh how I want you to know me oh how I want you to know me, oh how I wish I
D C D
was somebody else, baby oh how I wish you could know oh me
(Chorus)
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official MATCHBOX TWENTY tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
