And here's the song...
VERSE 1:
Bsus4/E A
when I was young I knew everything
C#m7sus4/E A
and she a punk who rarely ever took advice
Bsus4/E A
now I'm guilt stricken sobbing with my head on the floor
C#m7sus4/E A
stop a baby's breath and a shoe full of rice (no)
CHORUS:
C#m B A
I can't be held responsible
C#m B A
'cause she was touching her face
C#m B A
I won't be held responsible
C#m B A
she fell in love in the first place
Bsus4/E A
for the life of me, I cannot remember
C#m7sus4/E A Bsus4/E
what made us think that we were wise and we'd never compro-mise
A
for the life of me, I cannot believe
C#m B A
we'd ever die for these sins we were merely freshmen
VERSE 2:
my best friend took a week's vacation to forget her
his girl took a week's worth of valium and slept
and now he's guilt stricken sobbing with his head on the floor
thinks about her now and how he never really wept, he says
(CHORUS)
VERSE 3:
we've tried to wash our hands of all of this
we never talk of our lacking relationships
and how we're guilt stricken sobbing with our heads on the floor
we fell through the ice, when we tried not to slip, we'd say
(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 VERVE 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.
