I've put the basic chords here but if you find this difficult or annoying you can just
transpose it down half a step and put a Capo on 1
This means that with Capo 1:
D# = D
Ab = G
Fm = Em
A# = A
It's much easier to play this way
INTRO:
D# - Ab
VERSE ONE:
D# Ab D#
Stale sweat and cinnamon
Ab D#
I guess she is frightened most of all
Ab D# Ab
Loves to fly but she's scared to fall
VERSE TWO:
D# Ab D#
She's got scars on the outside
Ab
Says they're the worst kind
D#
And I don't ask
Ab D# Ab
She turns the lights out and locks the door

CHORUS/HOOK:
Fm Ab D# Ab
If this is fate count me out
Fm
And never try
Ab D# Ab
Please never try to hold her down
THIRD AND FOURTH VERSES ARE THE SAME AS FIRST AND SECOND
VERSE THREE:
Broken home
Broken bones
She never told anyone but me
And everything seemed make believe
VERSE FOUR:
We both ran
You can't ever catch horizon
Guess that's why we've both been riding so damn long
She says she thinks of me as home
CHORUS/HOOK:
Fm Ab D# Ab
If this is fate count me out
Fm
And never try
Ab D# Ab
Please never try to hold her down
BRIDGE:
A# Ab
Hands on hips and lips to lips
A# Ab
I don't know how much someone could take from her
A#
Fourth of July
Ab
Watch the night sky
A# Ab
I'm wondering why the truth ain't so easy this time
D# - Ab to finish
