Notes:
- Made for acoustic, but works very well on electric (especially if you move the chorus up an octave to match
  the original recording)
- Timing is tricky. There's a lot of hammer-ons, pull-offs and muted notes

Li-  sten

Is it your fault she made those cuts again?
   Bb5     Bb        A5                       C5 B5
To let out blood she thought it made her bad
   Bb            A5              G5
Or maybe just to cut you out instead
                F5
Keep your head

Wounds you hide

Attempts repeated infinitely feel

Useless now
