Hi! 2nd attempt of putting chords to the song. If you listen to the song, there s
a picking pattern after the first bit. I m not very good at writing picking
patterns down but I ll try my best :P
CAPO ON 5th FRET
I couldn t feel any more trapped than already I do
Stuck inside, stuck inside this state of mind with you
And yet you only smile like I m your friend
For now my happiness depends on how well I pretend
CHORUS
I know I m bound to this fixation for as long as I stay here
(or )
Sometimes I wish I could just leave
So you could come running after me
And the perfect world we re after always seems to disappear
(or )
I wish that we could find a way
To make it out of here
PICKING PATTERN:
E]---------------------------------|
B]--3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3--|
G]-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-2-2-2-2-|
D]------------------------0---0----|
A]----------------3---3------------|
E]3---3---3---3--------------------|
Can we forget that we are bound by all these
(or )
ropes and strings
That tie us up like this
And when we wake up we can go back to the world that
(or )
only wants us
To be friends
And I hope that when I sing you re looking up at me
So you can see my eyes are filled with hope for what could be
CHORUS
But that would mean that all we ve done would simply go to waste
I m trying to convince myself we re better off this way
Because you only smile like I m your friend
I wish someone would shake this out of me
Or shake it into you
CHORUS (Without picking patter - just one strum)
And yet you only smile like I m your friend
For now my happiness depends on how well I pretend
In the recording at the end, she keeps strumming the D chord until it fades.
