Tuning - 1/2 step down! Only smoking Popes song that I play half step down, because of the low E.
(Chorus 1)
B5 F#^
if you don't care, i don't care
B5 E^
we don't belong together
Ab5 F#5 E5 (short)
cause we don't belong anywhere
B5 F#^
if you're not sure, i'm not sure
B5 E^
what all these tears are falling for
Ab5 F#5 E^ (long)
let's decide not to care anymore
(Verse 1)
F#^ E^ B5 (finger pick)
F#^ E^ B^
awake in a white washed tomb
F#^ E^ B^
awaiting the hand of doom
Ab^ F#^
with our tickets to some distant patch of sky
F#^ E^ B^
employing a few choice words
F#^ E^ B^
we flutter like captive birds
Ab^
finally free
F#^
but still afraid to fly
(Chorus 2, same as first)
if you don't care, i don't care
we don't belong together
cause we don't belong anywhere
if you're not sure, i'm not sure
what all these tears are falling for
let's decide not to care anymore
(Verse 2, same as first)
assuming a plaintive pose
for reasons that neither knows
but we're both convinced we'll make it out alright
astoundingly still unclear
we stab at a faceless fear
as hand in hand we fall into the light
(Chorus 3, same as first)
if you don't care, i don't care
we don't belong together
cause we don't belong anywhere
if you're not sure, i'm not sure
what all these tears are falling for
let's decide not to care anymore
(Bridge)
Ab^ F#^ E^
anymore, anymore, anymore (x4)
(Verse 3, same as 2nd half of verse 1)
employing a few choice words
we flutter like captive birds
finally free
but still afraid to fly
(Chorus 4, same as first)
if you don't care, i don't care
we don't belong together
cause we don't belong anywhere
if you're not sure, i'm not sure
what all these tears are falling for
let's decide not to care anymore
(Chorus 5, same as first)
if you don't care, i don't care
we don't belong together
cause we don't belong anywhere
if you're not sure, i'm not sure
what all these tears are falling for
let's decide not to care anymore
Ab5 F#5 E^
let's decide not to care anymore
Ab5 F#5 E^
let's decide not to care anymore
Ab5 F#5 (end on E5 )
let's decide not to care anymore
