timing. Also he does a little hammer on/pull off on the 009900 chord (009900 to 009800
back again).
Wasted my Septembers with you stuck up in my head
Raced the days closed in the hopes that the mornings would swell again
Don't offer me rewards dear, that's a weight that I don't need
I've seen stronger men draped over your shoulder
So filled with praises, to drunk to leave
Baby, I'm falling away
Baby, I'm falling away
You were always good at putting words together
About how you always liked me better when I never came around
You were always good at putting words together
And wearing them so loud
End with "And wearing them", then play the riff again until you feel like ending it.
