She thinks i'm drunk but i'm not, there are just so many reasons we can't get caught,
and the sound of the shot is the sound of our heartstrings pulling taught
oh it's scandalous these, tales of woe
these are the memories and this is how they go
I don't think we're in control,

Bridge - listen to the song while following this bit to get it, I couldn't come up with
a decent way to tab it since it's a bit stop/start. It's played twice.

and now everythings fine, only happy endings all the time

It's a great song and pretty easy to play once it clicks in your head. Sorry if the tab
was a little hard to follow, but with all the sections and slight variations I wanted to
make sure I got it all.
