Lyrics:
A5		             A/C#	 
I met a new one and she looks just like you
Asus4/D                                   E5
She gives me everything that you didn?t want to
F#maj7   A5                     D             E
And maybe, maybe I don?t need saving after all
A5		  A/C#          Asus4/D        E5
She sticks in my ribs almost better than you did
F#maj7 A5       D                  E
And maybe I?m tired or maybe she glows

D                                     A6	 Esus4  E
I wonder if you?re still defending x2

              A9      D9
Cause you?ve been so wrong
    A9   E
So long now
You?ve been so wrong
For so long now

Met someone with your eyes and skin
I can convince her of everything
And baby, it?s so delicious you should
Come here and see for yourself
?I?m gone,? you said, ?if this is all there is?
You?ll never shine alone?

And I wonder if you?re still defending
I wonder if you?re still defending

You?ve been so wrong I could fall alone if all
So long now if I could fall away
You?ve been so wrong I could fall alone if all
so long now If I could fall away

     A6         E         A 
And you knew anthems to breathe
	   D   D/F#		  E
And I?ve got you on my answering machine.

D/F#       E            A6       
I?ve kissed others lips
 	      D            A 
And they promised me healing
      D       A   E
It?s easy if you try


B in the tab means a bend
