Intro (and basic pattern): C G C G C G D(+) C/ x2
DO SOL DO SOL
Well you live out where the street ends
DO SOL RE(+) DO
In a basement apartment, with one of your friends
DO SOL DO SOL
The tap drips all night, water torture in the sink
DO SOL RE RE+ DO SOL DO SOL DO SOL RE(+) DO
The furnace is burning, but it's still cold, I think
DO SOL DO SOL
I can smell the bleach that they use in the hall
DO SOL RE(+) DO
But it can't clean the dirt off of me
DO SOL DO SOL
It's seeping under the door, in across the floor
DO SOL RE RE+ DO SOL RE
It's starting to hurt, every time I breathe
RE+ DO SOL RE
Every time I try to leave
RE+ DO SOL RE RE+ DO SOL RE(+) DO
Every time I breathe
The toaster sticks, the empties are piled
I haven't been up the stairs in a while now
I gotta wash the sheets on my bed
I gotta watch those things that go unsaid
God, I wish we could leave it at this...
Every time I breathe
Every time I try to leave
Every time I breathe
DO - - - SOL - - -
And every evening, you open the door, you come down
DO - - - SOL - - -
There's nothing like watching TV all night underground
DO - - - SOL - - -
And no one is watching me slide
DO - SOL - RE - RE+ -
Below street level, barely alive
We live out where the street ends
In a basement aprartment, just like our friends
We always said that we'd be different
But you know now that we weren't
Cause there's hole in all the bottles in my long term...
Every time I breathe
Every time I try to leave
Every time I breathe
All the chords are of the same length, with a dash meaning simply
to continue playing that same chord. This is how I play the
chords:
DO SOL RE RE+
e|---3---|---3---|---2---|---3---|
b|---3---|---3---|---3---|---3---|
g|---0---|---0---|---2---|---2---|
d|---2---|---0---|---0---|---0---|
a|---3---|---2---|
MI ---3---
and D(+) means to just throw in the + part (ie. first string, third
fret) for a second in the D chord.
