Album: Nothing Left to Lose
Tabbed by: Rachel

Tuning: Standard

B                              E
She says today is gonna be the last 
one
B                                
I know there's never gonna be an 
E
easy way out
B                                 
She's rolling round the town with 
  E
a fast gun
B                              E
And I know I can't be there to catch
 her when she falls

     F#                            
Well half way down is half way out 
   E
of here
             F#                    
We're either halfway drowned or 
                 E
half way 'round the pier
                       B
When you're that far gone
      E  B        E
Whooooo, Whoooooooo

Verse 1:
             B
I walked the steps to her apartment 
with the window by the shore
Continues after the ad
            E
And saw her curled on the tile 
through a crack in the door
          B
I've been searching for the words I 
don't know how to say
          E
I've been searching for the words to
 make it go away
        B
I spent all of last night and the 
night before that
        E
With my feet in the sand and the 
wind on my back
           B
Watching a ship sail out to a blue 
wide sea
      E
There must be more than this with a 
kiss we can't see

Chorus:
     F#                            
Well half way down is half way out 
   E
of here
      F#                        
We're eihter half-way drowned or 
                    E
half way round the pier
B
I can't break her, I can't break her
 fall
E
She's lying in the back room, crying
 on the bathroom floor
        Abm
Singing I can't take it, I can't 
take any more
E
Just one reason, one to believe in
                    B          E
That's not that far gone, whooooo
             B           E
Not that far gone,  whooooo

verse2: (repeat B, E progression)
I held the back of her head and laid
 her in the bed
And watched the sheets raise and 
fall to the rhythm of her breath
Turn the lock on the handle and 
slipped down the stairs
To the cover of the night with 
diamonds in the air
I'll say a prayer in my breath and 
take a left at the water
To the rhythm of my feet a sister 
and a daughter
To the rhythm of the sea with the 
breeze in the autumn
As it blows through the trees my 
hands into the water

Repeat Chorus

Abm
I can't break her, I can't break her
 fall
E
She's lying in the back room, crying
 on the bathroom floor
Abm                               
And I can't take it, I can't take 
   E
anymore

B                              E
She says today is gonna be the last 
time
B                                 
And I know there's never gonna be 
   E
an easy way out
