VERSE:
D              Am           G
 Remember the time we were both eye to eye
        Bm                    D
And we both knew the reasons why
                Em                     G
Seemed like we faced the world on our own
 
D              Am          G
 Before we collide can we just take a moment
    Bm                     D
Collecting reflections of this
       Em                        G
And remember the paths that we chose
 
 
CHORUS:
Bm
 Spring lied to us this year again
C
 Can't stand to face the fear again
G                   D                 C
 You could always laugh about those things
 
Bm
 It's enough to make a man feel sour
C
 Burning minutes every day by the hour
G                D                    C
 Just to end up gone like everything else
 
   D      Am   G          Bm         D          Em       G
E -----------|----------|----------|---------------|-------|
B -----------|----------|----------|---------------|-------|
G ---------5-|-4--------|-4--------|---------------|-------|
D ---4-5-7---|---7-7--5-|---7-7--5-|---------------|-------|
A -5---------|----------|----------|-9--9-7-9-10-7-|-7-9-5-|
E -----------|----------|----------|---------------|-------|
 
 
VERSE:
D               Am         G
 Let go of the pain, hold onto the rhythm
      Bm                       D
It's consciously held back in you
                   Em                         G
You're drowning a sorrow that's long been at rest
 
D               Am            G
 The past is a hell, it can creep up inside you
   Bm                    D
So let me remind you of this
           Em                    G
There's a reason your troubles exist
 
 
CHORUS:
 Bm
Spring lied to us again this year
  C
Still I can't stand to face the fear
 G                D                 C
Will you always laugh about those things
 
Bm
 It's enough to make a man stay humble
C
 Everyday is just a new chance to stumble
G                D                    C   C
 Just to end up gone like everything else
 
 
INSTRUMENTAL:

D  Em  G  G
 
D  Am  G  Bm

VERSE:
D           Am           G
 If ever a time comes around in the wheel
       Bm                          D
To replace where we stand side by side
          Em                G
We'll be ready and able to fly
 
D               Am
 Away from the mire
         G                      Bm                  D
And the senseless decisions of somebody's wasted desire
             Em                         G
Through the smoke and the wind and the fire
 
 
CHORUS:
 Bm
Spring lied to us this year again
 C
Can't stand to face the fear again
 G                 D                 C
You could always laugh about those things
 
Bm
It's enough to make a man feel sour
C
 Burning minutes every day by the hour
G                D                    C
 Just to end up gone like everything else

NOTE:
At this point Billy Strings is basically picking notes
and soloing and not really playing chords.
 
However to me the simplest way to get through this part
is to alternate between the Em and D chord which works
for me playing along at this part.
 
Since there are just too many chord changes at this point
and no markers to identify where the changes occur to place
these chords you would have to listen for when those changes
are made.
 
Another option is to play the Verse and Chorus chords if
playing this song yourself or improvising a solo.
 
Please do not rate this tab down because of this part because
as stated this is a CHORD tab and does not require a TAB of this
SOLO.
