This is a new song that's only been performed live. I made this tab by
watching
Conor play it live in St. Paul MN.
After the last G in each verse he runs up the scale like this
(from low E string to the A string)
G A B C D E F G
On the D minor in the intro, there's a pull off from the G on the high E
string to
a normal d minor. Watch a video of him playing it if you don't understand
what that means.
[Intro]
C Dm (+ pull off) (x2)
[Verse 1]
C C/B
He's my friend but he's no friend to me
C C/B
Ask him why, he'll tell you casually
F
Washed up, bitter, broken, busted
G
Back stabbed everyone he trusted
C C/B F
Says he sees what no one else can see
G
And if I had half his guts I'd want it
F
To chase that fatalistic comet
C C/B F
Die young in the dark; that's poetry
Dm G (run up the scale)
But it was not to be, no it was not for me
[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)
He's always sad but I've never seen him cry
When he comes to, sure he'll apologize
Find his car, assess the damage
