Me Vs. the World - Madina Lake - From Them, Through Us, To You This is my favorite track off of Madina Lake's "From Them, Through Us, To You" album. loud, fast, and a lot of fun to play. I hope you enjoy. If you don't have the album, go it, and even better go see these guys live. Their shows are wicked. I'm not sure how Madina Lake plays this song, but I play with standard tuning on the guitar and pick around on the chords. On the electric I use drop D and play mostly power on the bottom 3 strings. There are a few parts where the lyrics overlap (too many not enough beats) but I tried to keep it as easy to follow as I could. Follow along the song a few times to get the flow and rythmn down if you need. This is pretty easy song. Thanks, WiLL Intro: e|-13-----12-----| B|------------13-| G|---------------| Repeat D|---------------| 16x A|---------------| E|---------------| Bb C-D (repeat 8x) ***** Verse 1 ***** Dm F Sometimes I try not to hate myself Bb C For everything I never said when you were here Dm F And so I'm burning up photographs Bb C Of what was a perfect past 'cause I'm still here ***** Chorus ***** F Gm But I'm barely holding on, where did I go wrong Bb C Choking on the difference between me and the world F Gm And ever since you've been gone I've been torn apart Bb C I know that you can't hear me but I'm still hurt Dm And I wish you were here ***** Verse 2 ***** Dm F It's so hard that I try to bury it Bb C Pretend that you didn't exist, so I can be strong Dm F But I feel sick, and I feel diseased Bb C 'Cause everyone abandons me, and I can't move along ***** Chorus ***** F Gm Cause I'm barely holding on, where did I go wrong Bb C Choking on the difference between me and the world F Gm And ever since you've been gone I've been torn apart Bb C I know that you can't hear me but I'm still hurt Dm And I wish you were here ***** Break ***** Bb C D I can not pretend you didn't exist Bb C D Misery is just a state of mind Bb C D Hiding from the world's no way to live Bb C D So I'll convince myself that I'll be fine F D I'll be fine Bb C But since I lost you I'm barely holding on ***** Chorus ***** F Gm Cause I'm barely holding on, where did I go wrong Bb C Choking on the difference between me and the world F Gm And ever since you've been gone I've been torn apart Bb C I know that you can't hear me but I'm still hurt F So I look up to the stars Gm And wonder out loud Bb Why everything I had in life C Has fallen from my arms F Can you even hear this song? Gm I'm screaming at the clouds Bb Screaming to a galaxy C That never cared at all Dm That I need you here
