This song is all powerchords on an acoustic guitar.
Listen to the song for the strumming pattern.

I like variety, so I tabbed this out a couple different ways ;)

[Verse 1]
C G#
And so it seems

D#
You were to be king for a day

C G#
Don't let your dreams

D#
Of blood hunger in the way

C G#
You know these streets

D# A#
They lay there patiently awaiting your fall

G# A#
Like a Phone call


[Verse 2]
C G#
And I see

D#
You've made all the right decisions

C
I believe

G# D#
Your headstone received the wrong inscription

C
Didn't read

G# D# A#
Anything about how much we miss you at all

G# A#
So with a broken stick in dirt we scrawled:


[Prechorus]
F G# F
Here lies.........Our dreams come true

G# A#
Here lies X's for eyes on me and you


[Chorus]
D# G# A#
Want you to know I hope you got all you wanted

D# G# A#
Want you to know that I took all I could take

E# A#5 G#5 A#5 D#
It's been so hard to see and breathe through all the smoke left in your wake

E# A# G#

D# E# A# G#
In your wake...

[Play intro 2x]

[Verse 2]

[Prechorus]

[Chorus]

D# E# A# G#
In your wake

D# E# A# G# A# D#
In Your wake


Lyrics:

And so it seems
You were to be king for a day
Don't let your dreams
Of blood hunger in the way
You know these streets
They lay there patiently awaiting your fall
Like a Phone call

And I see
You've made all the right decisions
I believe
Your headstone received the wrong inscription
Didn't read
Anything about how much we miss you at all
So with a broken stick in dirt we scrawled:

Here lies.........Our dreams come true
Here lies X's for eyes on me and you

Want you to know I hope you got all you wanted
Want you to know that I took all I could take
It's been so hard to see and breathe through all the smoke left in your wake
In your wake...

[Play intro 2x]

And I see
You've made all the right decisions
I believe
Your headstone received the wrong inscription
Didn't read
Anything about how much we miss you at all
So with a broken stick in dirt we scrawled:

Here lies.........Our dreams come true
Here lies X's for eyes on me and you

Want you to know I hope you got all you wanted
Want you to know that I took all I could take
It's been so hard to see and breathe through all the smoke left in your wake
In your wake...
In your wake...
In Your wake...
