This is one of my favorite Gibbard covers. i think i've got it pretty accurate, listen
the song for timing. also on the verse strumming make sure you don't hit any of the
that aren't supposed to be, it gives it a really terrible dischordent sound. enjoy.

(just play this over the intro and verse's
It was familiar to me,
The smoke to thick to breath,
The tile floors glistened,
I slowly stirred my drink,
And when you started to sing,
You spoke with broken speech,
That I could not understand,
And then you grabbed me tightly,
(chorus)
F Dm
I won't let go, I won't let go,
F Dm
Even if you say so oh no,
F Dm
I've tried and tried with no results,
F Dm
I won't let go i won't let go,
He then played every song from,
1993,
The crowd applauded as,
He curtsied bashfully,
Your eyelashes tickled my neck,
With every nervous blink,
And it was perfect,
Until the telephone started,
Ringing, ringing, ringing, ringing, ringing off,
Ringing, ringing, ringing, ringing, ringing,off,
Ringing, ringing, ringing, ringing, ringing off,
Ringing, ringing, ringing, ringing, ringing off,
Ringing, ringing, ringing, ringing, ringing off,
Ringing, ringing, ringing, ringing, ringing off,
Ringing, ringing, ringing, ringing, ringing off,
