A                   Em               A
Breaking up in the station, a final train
              Em                         A
I don't even know if I'll ever see you again
         Em                  A
Is it a choice that we even have?

A                      Em                     A
Bang bang down on the piano 'til I smash the keys
         Em                A
Living alone with the melodies
              Em                    A
Everything's gone and I don't know where

         D                  Fm#       E
And the rule of thumb don't apply anymore
           D
'Cause the house is burning....


A              Em           D
    Trying to pull myself away
A                    Em                    D
    I'm caught in a pattern and I can't escape
A              Em           D
    Trying to pull myself away

A                   Em                        A
Lately when I get lost there's this thing I know
          Em                      A
Even the dogs have somewhere to go
            Em                       A
Everything comes if you just let it be

A                        Em                       A
Work, work, brighten the corners that will never see
              Em                               A
Untangle the thoughts that you know what they mean
                  Em                    A
I hope that the answer didn't come to late

         D                  Fm#      E
And the rule of thumb don't apply on me
           D
'Cause the tables are turning....


A              Em           D
    Trying to pull myself away
A                    Em                    D
    I'm caught in a pattern and I can't escape
A              Em           D
    Trying to pull myself away


[/ A / Em / D / D / pattern all through the outro]

Trying to pull myself away, everything's gone
Trying to pull myself away, everything's gone

Song performed by Glan Hansard in the movie Once - I haven't found the tab on the net, 
that's the reason why I've tabbed it and the above is here now ;)

This is a basic chords progression. Chords themselves may be more complex in the 
version of the song, but this will do for a simple playing.
The strumming should be very strong and vivid - listen to the original and you will 
catch it.

Have fun.
