The chords I've seen for this song are always off in some way,
shape or form, so i want to write it out how ive been hearing it.
This is my first chord/tab posting.

Em                     G
Scratched out a note I wrote for you

C
to wake and read

              Aadd9
to know that I was there once

Em                                 G                C
I knew that there was nothing that I could write to assure you

Aadd9
of my return

Em                          G
But all the paper said when I was done is

C             Aadd9
?do you still want me??

Em                                   G                C
because I?d be terrified if I had to leave this place today

           Aadd9
We haven?t saved the baby


D
As I said


my darling

Cadd9                        D
spring is constantly calling me

               Cadd9                 E   Em
and there?s no place that I?d rather be

  G           Cadd9
I won?t be angry

   D           Em
if you have to leave,

      G           Cadd9
but I won?t be waiting

D           Em
for that day

         G             Cadd9
So don?t say you?re sorry because

D          Em
I won?t believe

G         D      D
I won't believe you


Interlude: Em G C Aadd9 x2


Em                          G                   C
Didn?t see a sticker on the door when we walked in

                Aadd9
but I know it?s going to cost us

Em                         G                C
the same amount of love it takes to get you through

       Aadd9
but it never moves you

Em                           G                   C
I?d be terrified if I had to leave this place today

             Aadd9
It?s where I threw my love away

Em                              G              C
Then we saw a different side of ?Annie? nobody saw

             Aadd9
She tried to kill the baby


        D
and the earth and its skin will open up

    Cadd9                     D
and birth out a perfect mirror

           Cadd9               E      Em
that makes all our reflections clear


  G          Cadd9
I won?t be angry

   D           Em
if you have to leave,

      G           Cmadd9
but I won?t be waiting

D            Em
for that day

         G            Cadd9
So don?t say you?re sorry because

D          Em
I won?t believe

G       D       D
I won't believe you


Outro: Em G C Aadd9 (repeat til end)
