CAPO 2
This way of playing in the key of A is a lot like the way most people play in the
key of E. I "invented" it, but I'm sure there've been countless people who've
already been playing it in this manner.

Intro:
Verse:
I listen to the sirens as they sing me back to sleep
I pray that no one's seriously hurt
It feels like everything is dying at the pivot point of me
I listen to the sirens tell me things could still be worse
Pre-chorus:
Cause if you close your eyes and listen close
You can hear the chapter close
And its all rebound in better clothes
And you like the way this story goes
Cause the sun still burns the shadows out
And there's nothing to complain about now
Chorus:
Cause if this was our destiny I'd treasure the fact
And I'd give you whats left of me if I'd held back
But I don't need a soul
No I don't need a soul to hold
Without you I'm still whole
You and life remain beautiful
Verse 2:
Departing from the hospital
Ill news shows on your face too well
You're trying not to cough at all it hurts
All options are exhausted all your numbered days are numbered small
I miss you now, I loved you
And I know things could still be worse
Side-notes/Clarifications:
- For the intro, the A, E, and F#m are constant. The D/C#m/C#m + D are endings that you use.
- After the chorus the first time through, when you sing "You and life remain beautiful"
put in the lyrics above), you can play a different E before going in the the standard E
to the song for it)

- Don't be hating because this is wrong. >_> This song was pretty hard to get the chords
not because the chords were anything non-standard, but it's really hard to hear
properly. :P
