    Less Than Jake

This is the acoustic version of Sleep it Off (a criminally underrated LJT
 b-side), I've designed this tab to be played with open chords wherever 
possible (F# and C# being the exceptions). To see how this is played do your
 homework and seek out the live acoustic version of this track, which I seem
 to remember being a free download at some point. Enjoy!


[CHORUS]
F#         A                  E
i might as well just sleep it off
F#       A                E 
wishful thinking's got my wires crossed (whoa ho)
F#         A            E
when i am desperate and alone 
  D      A      B
i know i know i know how low i go


[Verse1]
E               D A D A D A
so i'll drive and disapear
and maybe if i'm luck by this time next year 
E        D A D A D A
no one i know will know my name 
it's either change or go or i'll explode today
E            D A D A D A
i'll leave a note on my machine
unplug the phone and finish packing all my things 
E         D A D A
i found a photograph of me 
                                          B
its been such a slow decay 
                   C#   D            E
day to day i don't even recognize my own face 
  A
i had another breakdown 
                E
and i'm floating face down



[CHORUS]
F#         A                  E
i might as well just sleep it off
F#       A                E 
wishful thinking's got my wires crossed (whoa ho)
F#         A            E
when i am desperate and alone 
  D      A      B
i know i know yeah i know how low i go



[Verse2]
E               D A D A D A
i'm going to sleep it off
this sinking feeling of always feeling lost
E               D A D A D A
hasn't been that long 
six years worth of always being wrong
E               D A D A D A
i met an old friend out on the street 
traded stories and out of date memories 
E               D A D A
she has a photograph of me 
                                          B
it's been such a slow decay
                   C#   D              E
day to day did we seem much happier in those days


[Solo break]
E               D *4
[into verse end]
                B
its been a slow decay 
                   C#   D            E
day to day i don't even recognize my own face
