Title: Rest Stop
Album: Mad Season
Tabbed by: ReeF


[ Verse 1 ]
[ all notes should be sustained - listen to the song and you'll know what i'm on about ]

Em G
Just three miles from the reststop,

D Em
and she slams on the breaks

Em G
She said I tried to be ... but I'm not,

D Em
so could you please collect your things

[ PreChorus ] - build up to chorus

D
Well I don't wanna be cold, I don't wanna be cruel,

Em
But I gotta find more than what's happening with you

C
So if you'd open up the door

(some weird harmonics here - i don't get them)

[ chorus ]

[[no chords]]
She said,

G D
while you were sleeping, I was listening to the radio

Em
And wondering what you're dreaming when,

D C
it came to mind that I didn't care

[[no chords]]
So I thought,

G D
hell, if it's over, I had better end it quick

Em
Or I could lose all my nerve are you listening?

D C
Can you hear me? Have you forgotten?

[ verse 2 ]- play same chords as verse 1
[ this time, add more strums ]

just three miles, from the reststop
and my mouth's to dry to rage [ improvise a fill-in picking pattern ]
light was shining from the radio-o-o
i could barely see her face

[ prechorus ]
well she knew all the worsd i never had said
she knew the crumbled down promise of this broken down man
and as i open up the do-o-or

[ Repeat Chourus ] X 2

D C ---- fade out to build up to chorus
can you hear me? have you forgotten?

[ repeat chorus ]
