that's really just improvisational. Sounds great of course, but it's not necessary.
There is one moment in the first Pre-Chorus where the mandola plays an A (octave), but
Em C G
I guess you stayed cause you wanted to stay
Em C G
And we went from zero to everything all in a day
Em C G
And then Kennedy took you away
G A
I thought of a short road that was keeping you warm
Em C
And the moments that make up your life till you wake up
G D
You sit on a swing and you talk with the girl
Em C
She tells you she wanted to kiss you
(C)
G D
The worst part of a good day is hearing yourself say
Em C
Goodbye to one more possibility day
Em G C7M G
It goes on
Em G C7M
And on...
Em C G
I go west but your weather has changed
Em C G
You're just scared, I mistake it for strange
Em C G
When you want me to leave then you start to believe I should stay
Em C G
I gotta get out of L.A.
G D
It seems like the short days are over
Em C
Cause you just don?t sleep in the daylight, so I don?t sit up nights
G D
I lie on my back on top of the hill
Em C
And your body is breaking the sky 'cause you're shaking
G D
And the worst part of a good day is knowing it's slipping
Em C
Away, that's one more possibility day
Em G C7M G
It's gone.
Em C G
We were waiting for winter this year
Em C G
But you came and it never appeared
Em C G
Me and you we know too many reasons for people and seasons
Em C G
That pass like they weren't even here
Em C G
Now living in smiles is better you say
Em C G
We carry the burdens of all of our days
Em C G
So scared that you?ll leave, you?re scared that I'll stay
Em C G
It's an impossibility day
Em C G
And we only saw half the ballet
G D
I said good night, goodbye
Em C
Seems like a good thing, so you know it's a good lie
G D
You can run out of choices and still hear a voice in your
Em C
Head when you?re lying in bed
(C)
G D
The best part of a bad day is knowing it's ok
Em C
The color of everything changes
G D
The sky rearranges its shade, and the smile doesn?t fade
Em C
Into the phone call and one bad decision we made
G D
And the worst part of a good day is the one thing you don?t say
Em C
And you don?t know how but you wish there was some way
G D
So you pull down the shades, and you shut out the light
Em C
Because somehow we mixed up "goodbye" and "goodnight
G D
And the one thing you don't say is everyone knows
Em C
Possibility days are impossible
Em G C7M G
It just feels wrong
Em G C7M G
So wrong...
Em G C7M G
Now you're gone
Em D/F# C F
Long gone...
