Song: The Ponytail Parades(Acoustic)
Artist: Emery
Half Step Down (EbAbDbGbBbEb)
I made this tab from the live version but with some minor changes around. It?s a
mix of the acoustic and electric versions. I also used the DVD to see how they
played it, sounds good to me.

C#m
It scares me to think,
B A
that you could find takers other than me
F#m
and better than me.
C#m
But you're head is elsewhere,
B
and I?m talking enough for both of us.
A F#m C#m
When will you see it's not (it?s not) so easy for me
C#m B A
you?re careless, and whispered, insulting, and bruising.
C#m B
And I thought that you said
A
things were improving.
C#m B
These laces are untied,
A Am
but my feet are still walking away.
(I fall from you eyes, your eyes I trusted, you said forever)
E C#m
I never thought that you could say these words.
A
Is this really happening?
E C#m
I never thought that you could say these words.
(Don't say...)
A
Is this really happening?
E C#m
I never thought that you could say these words.
(Don't say that we can...)
A
Is this really happening?
E C#m
I never thought that you could say these words.
(Don't say that we can still be...)
A
Is this really happening?
E C#m
I never thought that you could say these words.
A
Is this really happening?
(Don't say that we can still be friends)
Erase my name from this page.
C#m
A F#m
How can you take all these days
(What is inside of me what have I done?)
C#m B
and throw them away
(Is this the only way that you will notice me?)
A F#m C#m
as I sit here waiting for you (for you)
(Dead words for closed ears all this is sung for you)
A F#m
I stay up nights
(If you are still pretending this is what's right)
C#m B
until stars leave the sky
(Why can't you look at me can you only see?)
A F#m C#m
knowing what my dreams can take away
(One side, your side, can take away)
