Capo 1
Note: I didn't tab all of the fills, you can figure it out with some practice
Intro:  G   C   G   C   G   C   G  C  
GSuffocating every breath you take
AmBuilding up a tower just to break
CHold my breath till I turn blue
                                      G  C-G-C  
Sincerity's the former strongest suit
GOrdinary circumstances that
AmCould never be seen from where you are
CIn a room as small as this
I didn't think that you could seem so Dfar
AmSo I make my rounds to the lCower ground
EmWith a message late to Csend
AmI don't think it's worth the Ctime
              D  G-C-G-C-G-C-G-C  
To make amends
GWinter comes and goes without a word
AmSpring quiets the bad things that I heard
CSummer is a happy time
Most certainly the fall will Ddivide
AmSo you operate with an Copen heart
EmYou forgot to stitch Cagain
AmI don't think it's worth the Ctime
               D  G-C-G-C-G-C-G- C(End G)

Suffocating every breath you take

Building up a tower just to break

Hold my breath till I turn blue

G C G C

Sincerity's the former strongest suit

Ordinary circumstances that

Could never be seen from where you are

In a room as small as this

I didn't think that you could seem so far

Am C

So I make my rounds to the lower ground

With a message late to send

Am C

I don't think it's worth the time

D G C G C G C G C

To make amends

Winter comes and goes without a word

Spring quiets the bad things that I heard

Summer is a happy time

Most certainly the fall will divide

So you operate with an open heart

Em C

You forgot to stitch again

Am C

I don't think it's worth the time

D G C G C G C G C G
