You Could Be Happy
Intro
F C A# x4
F C A#
You could be happy and I won't know
But you weren't happy the day I watched you go
And all the things that I wish I had not said
Are played on lips 'til it's madness in my head
G F A#
Is it too late to remind you how we were?
But not our last days of silent, screaming blur
Most of what I remember makes me sure
F C A#
I should have stopped you from walking out the door
F C A#
You could be happy, I hope you are
You made me happier than I'd been by far
Somehow everything I own smells of you
And for the tiniest moment it's all not true
G F A#
Do the things that you always wanted to
Without me there to hold you back, don't think, just do
More than anything I want to see you go
F C A#
Take a glorious bite out of the whole world
Make This Go On Forever
Verse 1
C# Em
Please don't let this turn into something it's not
Bm A
I can only give you everything I've got
C# Em
I can't be as sorry as you think I should
Bm A
but I still love you more than anyone else could
C# Em
All that I keep thinking throughout this whole flight
Bm A
Is 'it could take my whole damn life to make this right'
C# Em
This splintered mast I'm holding on won't save me long
Bm A
Because I know fine well that what I did was wrong
Chorus
C# B A F#
The last girl in the last reason to make this last for as long as I could
C# B A F#
First kiss and the first time that I felt connected to anything
C# B A F#
The weight of water, the way you taught me to look past everything I had ever learned
C# B A F#
The final word in the final sentence you ever uttered to me was love
Verse 2
C# Em
We have got through so much worse than this before
Bm F
What's so different this time that you can't ignore?
C# Em
You say it is much more than just my last mistake
Bm F
And we should spend some time apart for both our sakes
Chorus x2
Piano Solo
C#
Outro (Only play the first C# the first time)
C# Bm
And I don't know where to look
A#
My words just break and melt
G#
Please just save me from this darkness
G# A#
Please just save me from this darkness
Set The Fire To The Third Bar

Cadd9 032033
Bm A G x2
Verse:
Bm A G
I find the map and draw a straight line
Over rivers, farms, and state lines
The distance from me to where you'd be
It's only finger-lengths that I see
I touch the place where I'd find your face
My fingers in creases of distant dark places
I hang my coat up in the first bar
There is no peace that I've felt so far
The laughter penetrates my silence
As drunken men find flaws in science
Their words mostly noises
Ghosts with just voices
Your words in my memory
Are like music to me
Chorus:
Bm D
I'm miles from where you are,
A G
I lay down on the cold ground
Bm D
I pray that something picks me up
A Cadd9
And sets me down in your warm arms
Verse 2:
Bm A G
After I have travelled so far
We'd set the fire to the third bar
We'd share each other like an island
Until exhausted, close our eyelids
And dreaming pink wildfire
The last place we left off
Your soft skin is weeping
A joy you can't keep it
Chorus
Headlights On Dark Roads
INTRO:

VERSE:

For once I want to be the car crash
Not always just the traffic jam
A8 B8 G8
Hit me hard enough to wake me
A8 B8 G8
And lead me wild to your dark roads
PRE-CHORUS:

Headlights... before me
E5 A5 F5
So beautiful, so clear
C5 A5 F5 E5 G5
Reach out... and take it
E5 A5 F5
Cos I'm so ti-red of all this f-ear
(bass line)
My tongue is lost, oh, I can't tell you
Please just see it in my eyes
A8 B8 G8
I pull up thorns from our ripped bodies
A8 B8 G8
And let the blood fall in my mouth
