Great song by my favorite band, I know it isn't spot on so please make any 
corrections you find necessary. Keep in mind this is my first tab. Enjoy!

It is easiest to play the A# on the 6th fret and the C# on the 9th. You can look 
up those alternatives when you scroll over the chord in the tabs. Hope that clears everything up.


Intro (palm muted)
Bb C# F# x2

   Bb     C#
Hunter eyes
    F#                              Bb      C# 
I'm lost and hardly noticed, slight goodbye
   F#                              Bb     C#   
I want to rip your lips off in my mouth
    F#                         Bb     C#   
And even in my greatest moment doubt

The line between deceit and right now

Simple math, it's how our bodies even got here
           C#                             F#    
Sinful math, the ebb and flow to multiply
               C#                               F#
What if I was wrong and no one cared to mention
              C#                                    F#    
What if it was true and all we thought was right was wrong?
       C#                                   Bm
Simple math, the truth cannot be fractioned
           F#         
Either way...

A perfectly constructed alibi
   F#                                            Bb  C#
To hush the violent guilt that eats and never dies
          F#                                      Bb 
In actual blame, they call me once the dark divide

Simple math, it's why our bodies even lay here

Sinful math, the truth cannot be fashioned

                   C#                                  F# 
What if we've been trying to get to where we've always been?
              C#                                   F# 
What if I was wrong, and started trying to fix it?

What if we've been trying to get to where we've always been?

What if it was true, that all we thought was right, was wrong?
