TUNING: FULL STEP DOWN- DGCFAD

None of the other tabs sound right for this song or "perfect" for that matter, so me and
brother decided to give it a shot. It is originally played on piano and im sure there
other ways to play it but im almost positive this is 100% correct. If not its really 
really close. Awesome song and enjoy =)

-VERSE 1-
EKatie, (022100@1)don't cry, I know
       B (x2444x@1)         C#mYou're (x13321@4)trying your hardest
                BAnd (x2444x@1)the hardest part is letting
EGo (022100@1)of the nights we shared
 B (x2444x@1)     C#m (x13321@4)                     BOcala (x2444x@1)is calling and you know it's haunting
            A (x02220@1)       B (x2444x@1)           C#m (x13321@4)          BBut (x2444x@1)compared to your eyes, nothing shines quite as bright
            A (x02220@1)         B (x2444x@1)           C#m (x13321@4)             BAnd (x2444x@1)when we look to the sky, its not mine, but I want it so

-PRE-CHORUS-
ELet's (022100@1)not pretend like you're alone tonight
B (x2444x@1)                  C#m(I (x13321@4)know he's there and)
                             BYou're (x2444x@1)probably hanging out and making eyes

(while across the room, he stares)
A (x02220@1)                            BI (x2444x@1)bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
    C#m (x13321@4)          A (x02220@1)                  BAnd (x2444x@1)ask my girl to dance, and she'll say yes

-CHORUS-
              A (x02220@1)               B (x2444x@1)        C#mBecause (x13321@4)these words were never easier for me to say
  B (x2444x@1)            AOr (x02220@1)her to second guess
    BBut (x2444x@1)I guess
     E (022100@1)          C#m(446600)
That I can live without you but
   A (x02220@1)              BWithout (x2444x@1)you I'll be miserable at best

-VERSE 2-
EYou're (022100@1)all that I hoped I'd find
                C#mIn (x13321@4)every single way
                       BAnd (x2444x@1)everything I could give

Is everything you couldn't take
E (022100@1)                        B (x2444x@1)                          C#mCause (x13321@4)nothing feels like home, you're a thousand miles away
                        BAnd (x2444x@1)the hardest part of living

Is just taking breaths to stay
A (x02220@1)                         BBecause (x2444x@1)I know I'm good for something
       C#m (x13321@4)             AI (x02220@1)just haven't found it yet
