Hey all! This is my first tab! I absolutely love Blind Pilot, and I couldn't bear to see tabs that don't do 
the
song its justice. So here it is! Please tell me if I have something wrong! Thank you
 
Note #1: At the part in the verses where Israel plays the the "C E7 Am" Im pretty sure he plays the C with a
X32013 and he plays the E7 with a 020103.
Note #2: In the chorus, I'm pretty sure Israel plays the C with a X32013 and he plays the Am with a X02213. 
I'm
not positive, so listen for yourself and decide!

Verse 1:
 
C
I was in between.
F
I was an offering.
C                   G
I was a burning branch.
C
Close to feeling tall.
F
Almost afraid to fall,

I was made of chance.
C
And when the colors bleed,
F
Mix up my memories,
C                  G
When I ride the moon.
C
I'll just be a sound you heard.
F
I'll be a foreign word
C        E7          Am       G
That's meaning your type of blue,
Am      G                   C
And I leave that here with you.

C      F          C
Ohhh, lines will blur

Ohhh, Darkness comes

I'll keep it where my black keeps light.
 
Verse 2:
C
Make me a mirror of
F
All that I cannot love.
C                  G
Let me hold the cast
C
Of my favorite years,

The truth how they gave me here,
C    E7  Am      G
And let that be last.
Am   G           C
Let that be my last.

In a darkness I do not know.
