[Intro]
Em7 A Asus2 Cadd9/G Dsus2/F# (x2)
[Verse 1]
N.C. Em7 A
I know what you're doing, I see it all too clear.
Asus2 Cadd9/G Dsus2/F#
I only taste the saline when I kiss away your tears.
Em7 A
You really had me going, wishing on a star.
Asus2 Cadd9/G Dsus2/F#
The black holes that surround you are heavier by far.
Em7 A
I believed in your confusion, you're so completely torn.
Asus2 Cadd9/G Dsus2/F#
It must have been that yesterday was the day that I was born.
Em7 A
There's not much to examine, nothing left to hide.
Asus2 Cadd9/G Dsus2/F#
You really can't be serious, to have to ask me why
Fmaj9/C
I say goodbye...
[Chorus]
Cadd9 Gsus2
'Cause I am barely breathing, I can't find the air,
Am Fmaj9/C
I don't know who I'm kidding imagining you care;
Cadd9 Gsus2
And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day;
Am
I don't suppose it's worth the price, it's worth the price
Fmaj9/C
The price that I would pay yeah, yeah yeah.
[Verse 2]
Em7 A
Everyone keeps asking, "what's it all about?"
Asus2 Cadd9/G Dsus2/F#
I used to be so certain, now I can't figure out.
Em7 A
What is this attraction, it's only filled by pain?
Asus2 Cadd9/G Dsus2/F#
There's nothing left to reason and only you to blame,
Fmaj9/C
Will it ever change?
[Chorus]
Cadd9 Gsus2
'Cause I am barely breathing, I can't find the air,
Am Fmaj9/C
I don't know who I'm kidding imagining you care;
Cadd9 Gsus2
And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day;
Am
I don't suppose it's worth the price, it's worth the price
Fmaj9/C
The price that I would pay yeah, yeah yeah.
Cadd9 Gsus2 Am Fmaj9/C
But I'm thinking it over anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah...
[Bridge]
D Am
I've come to find, I may never know
Cadd9 Gm13
Your changing mind, is it friend or foe?
D Am
I rise above or sink below
Cadd9 Gm13
With every time you come and go
Fmaj9/C
Please, don't come and go...
[Chorus]
Cadd9 Gsus2
'Cause I am barely breathing, I can't find the air,
Am Fmaj9/C
I don't know who I'm kidding imagining you care;
Cadd9 Gsus2
And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day;
Am
I don't suppose it's worth the price, it's worth the price
Fmaj9/C
The price that I would pay yeah, yeah yeah.
[Outro]
Cadd9 Gsus2 Am Fmaj9/C
But I'm thinking it over anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah...
Cadd9 Gsus2 Am Fmaj9/C
I'm thinking it over anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah...
Fmaj9/C
And I know what you're doin', I see it all too clear...

You're welcome! I gave my best shot to this song 'cause this is one of my favorite. I hope you'll also try to check Duncan's IN THE ABSENCE OF THE SUN, & SHE RUNS AWAY. But I was too lazy to post the chords of those songs instead i post the numbered system. Thanks!

Great tab! I play the FM9/C x33033 or x33030...the difference in sound from the higher fret version is rather minimal from what I can tell, it sounds fine to me, and it's a lot easier for my stubby little fingers :)
