Standard (EADGBE)
INTRO Main Bass Riff (x 2)
You can take me away from my sorrow, but you can't take away my scars.
I stand in the middle of the highway, playing chicken with the cars.
It's not that I'm destructive; I just want to feel your pain.
Chorus 1
If there was any way, I could have known,
I would trip and fall, away from you.
If there was anything, I could have done,
To stay in love with you, - with you
Wish I could say to you what you are to me, but I know it would make you sad.
You are too good to be my lover, but you've been the greatest dad, I ever had.
You made my life so lovely, I just had to mess it up.
Chorus 2
If there was any way, I could have known,
I would trip and fall, from your grace.
If there was anything, I could have done,
To stay in love with you
Bridge

If I knew, I'd do it twice, just to make sure that I did it right.
Solo break
over chorus chords)
If there was any way, I could have known,
I would always need, to be alone.
If there was anything, I could have done,
To stay in love with you,
Id be in love with you. With you.

I hope you enjoy this, my first submitted tab. Its a catchy tune, fun to play
with a second guitar; that player can riff on a palm-muted E5 during the verses
And also cover the solo
in E).
