INTRO

VERSE RIFF (4x)


VERSE 1 (W/ VERSE RIFF)

A                Dsus2                                A   Dsus2
What we learned here is love tastes bitter when it's gone
A                         Dsus2                             A  Dsus2
Past yourself forget the light, things look dirty when it's on


PRE-CHORUS 1

A             F#m      E                  Dsus2                
Funny how it comes to pass, that all the good slips away
A              F#m    E            Dsus2          F#m    Dsus2
And there's no one around you can remember being good to you


CHORUS

  A    E                 F#m    
Shame, shouldn't try you, couldn't step by you
    Dsus2        A
And open up more
      F#m    E      Dsus2
Shame, shame, shame

(VERSE RIFF 2x)


VERSE 2 (W/ VERSE RIFF)
A            Dsus2                             A Dsus2
What we lost here is something better left alone
A                    Dsus2                              A Dsus2
Second steps been forgotten, will you tell me how they go


PRE-CHORUS 2

A              F#m  E          Dsus2
Set yourself, sit-u-ate, like a fool try again
A          F#m   E             Dsus2         F#m      Dsus2      
There's no one around you can remember being good, for you, so


CHORUS

  A    E                 F#m    
Shame, shouldn't try you, couldn't step by you
    Dsus2        A
And open up more
      F#m    E      Dsus2
Shame, shame, shame
  A    E                 F#m    
Shame, shouldn't try you, couldn't step by you
    Dsus2        A
And open up more
      F#m    E      Dsus2
Shame, shame, shame


BRIDGE

E          F#m                 Dsus2
We never thought we'd get so troubled
E         F#m             Dsus2
We could never think that much
E          F#m           Dsus2
It should never get this bad


VERSE 3 (W/ VERSE RIFF)

A                      Dsus2 A                 Dsus2
So let the wind blow ya...   across a big floor
A                     Dsus2                    A             Dsus2
But there's no one around who can tell us what we're here for


PRE-CHORUS 3

A          F#m      E           Dsus2
Funny in a certain light, how we all look the same
A              F#m     E       Dsus2              F#m     Dsus2     
And there's no one in life you can remember ever stood for you so


CHORUS

  A    E                 F#m    
Shame, shouldn't try you, couldn't step by you
    Dsus2        A
And open up more
      F#m    E      Dsus2
Shame, shame, shame
  A    E                 F#m    
Shame, shouldn't try you, couldn't step by you
    Dsus2        A
And open up more
      F#m    E      Dsus2
Shame, shame, shame
