Okay, so this is my first guitar tab, the chords all sound right...this is pretty much

it matters but...

C#m
When you find me in the morning
Hanging on a warning
F#m D
Oh... The joke is on you
C#m
You said you were pretending
Here's to unhappy endings
F#m D
Oh... The joke is on you
C#m
To make sure yesterday doesn't repeat
I took a shortcut home

A left on the street
F#m D
I know they won't find me here
C#m
I found out how to make mama proud
Be real quiet, don't talk too loud
F#m D
I try, try to disappear
C#m
My life is for the taking
F#m
Breakdown is awaking me
D
I'm ending all this pain
When you find me in the morning
Hanging on a warning
Oh... The joke is on you
You said you were pretending
Here's to unhappy endings
Oh... The joke is on you
This is my last day
Should have been my first kiss
Think to myself will I ever be missed?
I hope... Or maybe I don't care
I wear my team around my neck
I love them so much
Gonna love them to death
Tonight... See the world through my eyes
My life is for the taking
Breakdown is erasing me
I'm ending all this pain
My great escape
Is my biggest mistake
I think you better turn around
Don't throw it away
Today... Today...
