Bleed Out Chords

   
This is the way I play Bleed Out on the acoustic guitar.  I believe it's accurate, but
feel free to comment with suggestions.  The song is pretty easy to play transposed up
one full step to capo 1.  I would rather play an F than a Bm so that's why I play capo 3.  It 
also leaves a little more room to play with the capo if you have a lower voice.

FYI: The chords are not showing above the correct words sometimes.  I've tried, but they
keep shifting.  I give up.  You will have to listen to the song to figure out the
timing, I guess.


Capo 3 to match the song

         Am             F
Close my eyes, Feel you sigh
  C                           G
A desperate aching wonder
         Am    F                  C     G
Will you ever, ever let me off my knees?
     Am          F
Wide awake, Like a dream
   C               G
As simple as a secret
        F              C           G
Being told, told to everyone but me...Will I

I gave it all but you can't stop taking from me
        C      G

Sudden rain Coming down
   G                 Am
It all comes back to me

Waking up, falling down

Another day Come undone
       G                   F
I keep trying to heal your pain

In return, you cut me over and over one more time and I will...
