The Song:

[opening riff] x 4
 
G                  Em               [interlude riff]
The workadays were propping the bar quietly erasing the week

G              Em           [interlude riff]
And I was in a corner booth thinking (pretending to read)

             D      D/C           B                G
About the impossibility of one to love unconditionally

                            Em
And the words that we drive into the ground

      F#                              [opening riff] x 4
Their repetition starts to thin their meaning

G                   Em                          [interlude riff]
Then everything got frighteningly still as they entered and intersected the floor

G              Em                       [interlude riff]
And I tried to choke my stare at the perfection that others would kill for

               D                     D/C             B         G
But all of the parts are the same on every face, few variables change

                Em                 F#                       G
The differences pale when compared to the similarities they share


A                G           Bm               F#
Finally there is clarity and there is purpose after all

A                        G           Bm                   F#
But every night ends the same as I'm collapsing once more by your side

A                G             Bm           F#
Finally there is clarity, this tiny life is making sense

A                        G               Bm         F#
And every drop numbs the both of us, but I alone am staggering
