The Seatbelts
Text File
The other tab uploaded here is almost totally wrong. Sorry, pal.
Intro:
G, A7, F, C/G, G, Gsus4, G x 4
Verse 1 :
G
Happiness is just a word to me,
A# F
And it might have meant a thing or two
C/G, C/Gsus 4, C/G
if I'd known the difference.
G
Emptiness, a lonely parody,
A# F
And my life, another smokin� gun
C/G, C/Gsus 4, C/G
A sign of my indifference.
Eb
Always keepin� safe inside
F
Where no one ever had a chance
C/G, C/Gsus 4, C/G
To penetrate or break in.
Eb
Let me tell you some have tried,
F
but I slam the door so tight
C/G, C/Gsus 4, C/G
That they could never get in.
Verse 2 - repeat chords
Chorus 1 (same as intro):
G
The longer I'd stall
The further I'd crawl
A7
The further I'd crawl
The harder I'd fall
F C/G G
I was crawlin' into the fire
G
The more that I saw
The further I'd fall
A
The further I'd fall
The lower I'd crawl
F C/G G
I kept fallin' into the fire
Guitar Solo - repeat chorus chords
Verse 3 (key change):
A
Suddenly it occurred to me
C G
The reason for the run and hide
D, Dsus4, D
Had totaled my existence
A
Everything left on the other side
C G
Could never be much worse that this
D, Dsus4, D
But could I go the distance
F
I faced the door and all my shame
D
Tearin' off each piece of chain
A, Asus4, A
Until they were broken
F
But no matter how I tried
D
The other side was locked so tight
A, Asus4, A
The door it wouldn't open
Chorus 2 :
A
Gave it all that I got
And started to knock
B
Shouted for someone
To open the lock
G D A, Asus4, A
I just gotta get through the door
A
And the more that I knocked
The hotter I got
B
The hotter I got
The harder I'd knock
G D A, Asus4, A
I just gotta break through the door
A
Gotta knock a little harder
B
Gotta knock a little harder
G D
Gotta knock a little harder
A, Asus4, A
Break through the door
(repeat until end)
