Track seven off of Brian Sella Originals, from back in 2006. All chords are three string
power chords. Few Front Bottoms fans have heard this, so if you haven't heard it, check
out the only place you can find it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8uGvTpCrPc
 
Intro:
D A D G A
 
 
Verse:
    D
The light sneaks in from under the door
         A
I don't know where I am, but I've been here before
          D
I found a message on the table, it's signed by you
             G                                A
It says "I'm sorry for your loss, there's not much I can do"
              D
And when they ask how long it's been this way,
    A
Say not that long, just a couple of days
    D
But you and I know that's not true
           G                        A
I've been living this way since the day I met you
 
 
Chorus:
    D                 G
And I could see myself never fully recovering
    D                 A
And I could see myself turning blue
    D                 G
And I could see myself never fully recovering
    D           A
And I could see myself dying for you
 
 
Break:
 
D A D G A
 
 
Verse:
     D
If I don't leave now, then I'll be late
         A
But if I show up on time, you'll call me fake
         D
And don't give me shit, I put my money in
               G                      A
I thought that I'd be late, where the fuck have you been?
    D
And what we had did not last long,
        A
But the memories flood back when I sing this song
           D
I want back everything I ever gave
              G                    A
And when they ask where I am, say "diggin' his grave"
 
 
Chorus:
    D                  G
And I could see myself never fully recovering
    D                  A
And I could see myself turning blue
    D                  G
And I could see myself never fully recovering
    D             A               D              A
And I could see myself dying for. I could see myself dying for;
D           A                G      A
I could see myself dying for you.
 
Dying for you
 
 
Outro:
D A D G A
 
End on D
 
 
If there's a TFB song you can't tab, let me know, I've probably already tabbed it, just
not uploaded it.
