This is very easy song to play, although your hand may start to cramp after awhile…its
very high. Depending on your voice you can adjust the capo but Jason plays it on 9 in the video.
Chords –
G – 320033 (for the verse its easier to play 320003 for the switch)
Am7 – 002013
Em – 022033
Cadd9 – 032033
D – 2X0033
When Jason plays Am7 in the verses he will pull off and hammer on the B string. So the
for that would be (in this order):
002003
002013
002033
It sounds cool but takes muscle memory…but it can be played with or without this, it
fine either way. Both verses and both chorus 1 and 2 are the same, so just refer back to
tabbed ones and you shouldn’t have any trouble.
Intro: G, Am7 x2
(Verse 1)
You liked it so much in the city
You know I could not stand it there
You loved to get lost in the people
And pretend that they really cared
You know you're such a bad imposter
Hiding your wings beneath your coat
And I watched your footprints makin patterns
Away from me into the snow
Now I don't believe in nothing anymore
(Chorus)
Love is permanent, not temporary
And it's driven straight into our chest
And buried much too deep
To just pull out like weeds in a garden
It's permanent
Well I'm sorry
(Verse 2):
So lately I've been goin crazy
Tryin to get you off my mind
Cuz thoughts of you hang just like pictures
And gather dust over the time
We hung them up just like real lovers
And drove our nails into the wall
Cuz we thought they'd be there forever
But we weren't permanent at all
And it's getting much too hard to see it now
Love is permanent not temporary
And it's driven straight into our chest
And buried much too deep
To just pull out like weeds in a garden
It's permanent
Well I'm sorry
Love is permanent not temporary
And it's driven straight into our chest
And buried much too deep
To just pull out like weeds in a garden
It's permanent
Well I'm sorry
I'm sorry
It's permanent
I'm sorry
Just continue playing Em, Cadd9, G and D until song is over.
