This is a copy of the previous tab, just transposed to capo on fret 2. This makes easier
the chord previously labeled, "F#/F." With capo 2, one just has to play an Em chord (at
the start of the 'chorus') and drop his or her finger on the D string 1 fret (to fret 1).
So it goes from Em (022000) to Em/D# (021000) <--possibly wrong name of chord. But just
drop a 1 finger 1 fret and it will give you the tonal clash.
G5
I'm staring out into that vaccum again
G5
From the back porch of my mind
A5
The only thing thats alive
D5
I'm all there is
G5
And I start attacking my vodka, stab the ice with my straw
G5
My eyes have turned red as stoplights, you seem ready to walk
A5
You know I'll call you eventually, when I wanna talk
D5
'Til then you're invisible.
E5 E(see note above) A5
D5
'Cause theres a switch that gets hit and it all stops making sense
E5 E5 A5 D5
And in the middle of drinks, maybe the fifth or the sixth
E5 E5 A5
I'm completely alone at a table of friends
D5 D5
I feel nothing for them. I feel nothing, nothing
Interlude:
G5 , D5 , A5 , D5
G5 , D5 , A5 , D5
E5 , E5 , A5 , D5
G5
Well, I need a break from the city again
G5
I think I'll ship myself back west
A5 D5
I got a friend there, she says, "hey, any time."
G5
Unless that offers expired, I have been less than frequent
G5
she's under no obligation to indulge every whim
A5
And I'm so ungrateful, I take, she gives and forgives
D5
And I keep forgetting it
E5 E5 A5 D5
And each morning she wakes with a dream to describe
E5 E5 A5 D5
Something lovely that bloomed in her beautiful mind
E5 E5 A5
I said "I'll trade you one for two nightmares of mine
D5 D5
I have some where I die, I have some where we all die."
Interlude:
G5 , D5 , A5 , D5
G5 , D5 , A5 , D5

Loud Part: Not sure on this part.
Goes from F#m to G#m at the end of the loud part.
G5
I'm thinking of quitting drinking again
G5
I know i said that a couple times
A5 D5
And I'm always changing my mind, well, i guess i am
G5
But theres this burn in my stomach and theres this pain in my side
G5
And when I kneel at the toilet
A5
And the mornings clean light pours in through the window
Sometimes I pray I don't die
D5
I'm a goddamn hypocrite
E5 E5 A5 D5
But the night rolls around and it all starts making sense
E5 E5 A5 D5
There is no right way or wrong way, you just have to live
E5 E5 A5
And so I do what I do and at least I exist
D5
What could mean more than this?
D5
What would mean more?
Mean more?

Ending finger picking, play around on this chord:
x20200 It's essentially G5 Am.
That's sort of it.
