D Dsus2
It's sitting by the overcoat

Em
The second shelf the note she wrote

C Csus G
That I can't bring myself to throw away

D Dsus2
And also reach, she said for no one else

Em
But you

C
Cuz you won't turn away

Csus G
When someone else is gone

D Dsus2
I'm sorry about the attitude

Em
I need to give when I'm with you

C
But no one else will take this shit

D
From me

C D Dsus2
And I'm so terrified of no one else

Em Csus2/C
But me......... I'm here all the time

G D/Dsu2
I won't go away

Cadd9 D Em
Yeah.....hey...... it's me

C G D
Yeah wel I can't get myself to go away

Em
Hey well, it's me

C G
And I can't get myself to go away

D
Oh, God, I sholdn't feel this way, no


Chorus:

Em
Reach down your hand in your pocket

C
Pull out some hope for me

G
It's been a long day

D Dsus2/D/Dus2 Em
Always ain't that right


Well no Lord your hand won't stop it

C Csus/C Csus/C
Just keep you trembling

G
It's been a long day

D Dsus2 Cadd9
Always ain't that right

THE NEXT VERSE IS THE SAME AS THE LAST 2:

I'm surprised if you believe
In anything that comes from me
I didn't hear it from you
Or from someone else
And you're so set in life, man
Pisser they're waiting
Too damn bad you get so far so fast
So what so long

CHORUS

Bridge during solo (much like the verses):

(Here just strum down twice and mute, listen to song for timing)

Em
Reach down your hand in your pocket

C
Pull out some hope for me

G D
It's been a long day, always ain't that right

Em
Well, no Lord your hand won't stop it

C
Just keep you trembling
