I found that the other tabs didn't have the right sound for the first chord, so
along with a video of Jake playing the song and those tabs I have transposed it to
sound closer to the actual song.
Capo 6
D = XX0232 G=320033 Em=X22000 A=XX2220 D5=X577XX C#=X477XX Bm=X24432
Intro D / G (Hammer on the A string)
D
Well I see you standing there and your eyes are unaware that
G
I've been staring at them all night wishing the brain behind them cared about
Em
the way you make me feel or how your smile makes me nervous or
A
how the fact how you exist makes me feel like I have a purpose
D
I'm sick of lying in your bed while we're both laying down you say
G
you say want me for a friend I hope you know I hate that sound
Em
but I will bite my tongue because hate when your pissed off but you should
A G
know that I need your touch like falling rain on thirsty crops but…
A D5 C# Bm G
Damn you stupid girl why won't you drop your guard
A D5 C# Bm G
The space between our lips is bound to break my ever aching heart
A D5 C# Bm G
And I am sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you more
A
So why won't you love me?
D
Well I hate your cigarettes and the men that you go see because
G
one is killing you while the other is killing me but
Em
I know you'll stay stubborn cause you'll know I'll stay alone cause
A
we both know inside your grasp is the only place I feel at home

D
Now I sit with my guitar write you one more stupid song
G
I hate the way you make me feel like I'm doing something wrong
Em
but you'll just have to deal with all the things that I have mentioned and
A G
I'll hope this song is golden like the point of my intentions but…
A D5 C# Bm G
Damn you stupid girl why won't you drop your guard
A D5 C# Bm G
The space between our lips is bound to break my ever aching heart
A D5 C# Bm G
And I am sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you more
A
So why won't you love me?
D G
D
But now the beat is done and there is nothing left to say pray to the
G
god you don't believe in that you'll love me some day
Em
so when the years go by and you forget how much I cared
A G
put in this song and sing along so your heart will be aware
A D5 C# Bm G
It's like giving up on everything that you believe
A D5 C# Bm G
To put your trust in a girl that stole your heart right off your sleeve
A D5 C# Bm G
And I am sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you more
A D
But you just wont love me
