Half Step Down

Intro

C, Am, Em, G (Keeping your pinky on the 3rd fret of the high E string for each

same goes for most of song, you'll have to listen for it)

Verse

I left you a note on the table, I hope it finds you well

 I hope you don't hurt like you did, 'cause I'd just blame myself

 And I know its for me that

 I'm out on these streets bleeding nightly

For these people I meet

 But its you who I long for when I cannot sleep

 Its enough it could drive me to drink

Chorus

(then on 10th fret)

And I am almost nowhere and I'm getting there fast

You're the hope in my cold stare

 You're the drink in my hand

Verse

When I picked up you broke into tears

 You said you weren't busy enough

 I still don't know why you need me

 And my broken down love

 With each second that ticks your voice rings in my ears and the memories

flood back from all of our years

 And I tell you its ok, there's nothing to fear

 And I secretly hope I am right

Chorus

( on 10th)

And I am almost nowhere and I'm getting there fast

You're the hope in my cold stare

 You're the drink in my hand

 You're the drink in my hand

 You're the drink in my hand

 You're the drink in my hand

 You're the drink in my hand

 You're the drink in my hand

Verse

I left you last week and you told me, "Go on and follow your dreams,"

 I think about that lately, still I don't know what it means

Because you're what I dream of when I wake alone

 As I drift away as we talk on the phone

You're all I want and that's all that I know

 And I still just can't wait to get home

Chorus

( on 10th)

And I am almost nowhere and I'm getting there fast

You're the hope in my cold stare

 You're the drink in my hand

 You're the drink in my hand

 You're the drink in my hand

 You're the drink in my hand
