I'm not a Dave fan at all, but a good song is a good song.
I tabbed this out for solo acoustic, so if you're playing with a bass or whatever
else, just disregard the bass notes.
Some of the barre chords might not be right, but hey, what do you want for free?

VERSE 1:
Main Riff
You cannot quit me so quickly.
Main Riff
Is no hope in you for me?
Main Riff
No corner you could squeeze me,
Main Riff E5
But I’ve got all the time for you, love.
CHORUS 1:
Chorus Riff
The space between
The tears we cry
Is the laughter that keeps us coming back for more.
Chorus Riff
The space between
The wicked lies we tell to keep us safe from the pain.
D5 E5 D5
Will I hold you again?
VERSE 2:
These fickle, fuddled words confuse me.
Main Riff
Like, “Will it rain today?”
Main Riff
We waste the hours with talking, talking
Main Riff E5
These twisted games we’re playing.
CHORUS 2:
Chorus Riff
We’re strange allies
With warring hearts.
What a wild eyed beast you be.
Chorus Riff
The space between
The wicked lies we tell that hope to keep us safe from the pain.
D5 E5 D5 E5
But will I hold you again? Will I hold...
BRIDGE:
B A G#m G F#
Look at us spinning out in the madness of a rollercoaster.
B A G#m
You know you went off like the devil in the church
G F#
In the middle of a crowded room?
B A
All we can do my love,
G#m G F
Is hope we don’t take this ship down.
CHORUS 3:
Chorus Riff
The space between
Where you smile and hide
That’s where you’ll find me if I get to go.
CHORUS 4:
Chorus Riff
The space between
The bullets in our fire fight
Is where I’ll be hiding waiting for you.
Chorus Riff
The rain that falls
Splashed in your heart,
Ran like sadness down the window into your room.
CHORUS 5:
Chorus Riff
The space between
Our wicked lies is
Where we hope to keep safe from pain.
Chorus Riff
Take my hand,
Cause we’re walking out of here.
Chorus Riff
Right out of here
Is all we need, dear.
CHORUS 6:
Chorus Riff
The space between
What’s wrong and right
Is where you’ll find me hiding, waiting for you.
Chorus Riff
The space between
Your heart and mind
Is the space we’ll fill with time.
CHORUS 7:
Chorus Riff
The space between
The tears we cry is the laughter keeps us coming back for more.
Chorus Riff
The space between
Our wicked lies where we hope to keep safe from pain.
OUTRO:
Chorus Riff
The space between...
The space between... (repeat and fade)
