Tabbed by: Vance Berisford
This song is played with a capo on the 3rd fret. All chords and tab shown are relative
to the capo.
These are the basic chords used in the song. There are two fills shown below that are
played basically every time the C and Gsus chords are played. Listen to the song if you
aren't sure of the rhythm. I watched a video of them playing the song and I'm pretty
confident the chords are spot on.
Chords:
C5 -32010

C5
Horses by my window go
F5
When you're fast asleep far below
C5 G5
And I hope that you never know
F5 F5
That while you sleep I still find time for my old ghosts
C5
A5 C5
See I was born just yesterday
F5 C5
And I try to tell my feet to stay but they won't
G5
You know it's hard to find a friend
C5
But I'm dumb and I might change my mind again
F5 G5
When it's slow I think I'd rather die
F5 F5
Then pass this off on some unsuspecting child
C5
Angie came to me today
F5
And said she was born to lead but not to say
C5 G5
That she knows there's no hope
F5 F5
Of making good on all those promises that she wrote
C5
A5 C5
Surely there's been some mistake
F5 C5
Some blind omission or a spot for change but no
G5
You know it's hard to find a friend
C5
But I'm dumb and I might change my mind again
F5 G5
When I'm low I still look to ghosts
F5 F5
To keep a cool eye on the hand that holds my throat
A5 C5
See I was born just yesterday
F5 C5
And I try to tell my feet to stay but they won't
