The Airborne Toxic Event - All I Ever Wanted tab

If there is interest, I could go through and do a full tab of the song with all the
string and guitar parts, but this tab only has the few main lines.


Capo 5 on the album
Capo 2 for the Walt Disney concert

I find the above easier, but the band actually plays it like so:

Intro
D   Bm   F#m      x3


D                    Bm                         F#m
I can only say these things to you while you're sleeping.
               D                       Bm                    F#m
I hear the the hum from the wires, the sounds of the morning creeping.
  D             Bm              F#m
I lie awake and pretend you can hear me.

D   Bm   F#m      x2


    D                                    Bm                F#m
You tell that you're scared, that you're turning into your mother,
  D           Bm           F#m
I feel myself turn into my father.
         D                      Bm                          F#m
We could lie to each other like they do and say we're still happy
     D                          Bm                   F#m
It's easy when you're young and you still want it so badly.


      Bm      A        G
And I feel my heart pounding
      Bm    A       G
And I think I might scream


      D                               A
I can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dear
      Bm                          G
I can utter every word you'd ever hope to hear
  D                           A                 Bm
I shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever.


D   Bm   F#m      x2


   D                        Bm                    F#m
At night you whisper like a ghost and you look so shaken
          D                       Bm                     F#m
You're so quiet and small and you tell me you want to be taken.
       D                         Bm                     F#m
I just never think of you as the kind of girl who would say that.
    D                       Bm                   F#m
You suddenly seem like some faceless thing in my grasp.


          Bm      A                G
With your eyes so wide, your face aglow
        Bm      A               G
Its the face of someone I don't know.


      D                               A
I can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dear
      Bm                          G
I can utter every word you'd ever hope to hear
  D                           A                 Bm
I shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever.


D   Bm   F#m      x7


    Bm                           A                   G
And all I could think is that it must be a kind of rebellion.
   Bm                  A            G
To arm your fears like soldiers and slay them.


      D                               A
I can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dear
            Bm                                 G
Through the din of your breathing while you're sleeping here.
    D                      A                Bm
You wake and ask me if I'm going to be here forever, forever, forever.


     D                        A
Your face so twisted and your eyes alight
          Bm                                G
I want to tell you I can change it when you cry at night
    D   A  Bm
But I'd be lying.
D    A  Bm
Love is defying.


End on D
