This tab is pretty much 100% right since
I tabbed this according to how they played
it acoustically on a live show video.

If there are any major errors though please
tell me about it

x3

Way to fight,
You never threatened to stop breathing countless times
When I wouldn't make a sound to
Baby eyes,
The whole thing is a fading senseless blur...

Of concern...
But I'm letting go of her

I don't know why it is
Isn't it obvious to me?
It's sympathy...

All her might
Was it the force behind the family?
Bound and tied
To keep the bottle down
To our surprise...

For what we give to this
The challeneges persist
Battles we must fight...
For what we give to this
A promise to resist
You stand with all your might...
