Miserable At Best Cifra

Mayday Parade - Miserable at Best (chords)
 
Tabbed By Ben
 
UPDATE: I've made the chords line up a bit better with the words - and added an
Em in place of a G in the "I could live without you" bit, (but both sound fine to be
honest) and a chord chart.
 
Also as a few people have asked about strumming / picking patterns, I have uploaded a
video of my playing this:

[Verse]
D                             A           Bm
Katie don't cry I know you're trying your hardest
                A               D
And the hardest part is letting go  Of the nights we shared
 A       Bm                        A
Ocala is calling and you know it's haunting
       G             A
but compared to your eyes
        Bm              D
nothing shines quite as bright
            G             A
And when we looked to the sky
         Bm          D
It's not mine but I want it.    So...
 
 
[Chorus]
D5
  Let's not pretend like you're alone tonight
   A
(I know he's there and)
Bm                                A
  You're probably hanging out and making eyes
 
(While across the room he stares)
G                              A
 I'll bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
    A#dim          Bm             A
And ask my girl to dance she'll say yes
               G                D G D      A
(Because these words were never easier for me to say or
A#dim          Bm        A
Her to second-guess but I guess)
    Em              D
That I can live without you but
 G               A            D
(Without I'll be miserable at best)
 
 
[Verse]
D
  You're all that I hoped I'd find
                Bm
In every single way
                       A
And everything I would give
                          D
Is everything you couldn't take
                          A
Cause nothing feels like home
                        Bm
You're a thousand miles away
                         A
And the hardest part of living
                          G
Is just taking breaths to stay
                          A
Cause I know I'm good for something
       A#dim             Bm
I just haven't found it yet
      A
And I need it,    so...
 
 
[Chorus]
D5
  Let's not pretend like you're alone tonight
   A
(I know he's there and)
Bm                                A
  You're probably hanging out and making eyes
 
(While across the room he stares)
G                              A
 I'll bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
    A#dim          Bm             A
And ask my girl to dance she'll say yes
               G                D G D      A
(Because these words were never easier for me to say or
A#dim          Bm        A
Her to second-guess but I guess)
    Em              D
That I can live without you but
 G               A            D
(Without I'll be miserable at best)

[Verse]
D                     G               A
 And this will be the first time in a week
                 F#m              Bm
That I'll talk to you and I can't speak
                                      A
It's been 3 whole days since I've had sleep
                                  D
Cause I dream of his lips on your cheek
                                  G
And I got the point that I should leave you alone
    A                     F#m
But we both know that I'm not that strong
    Bm                              A
And    I miss the lips that made me fly.     so...
 
 
[Chorus]

G                              A
 I'll bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
    A#dim          Bm             A
And ask my girl to dance she'll say yes
               G                D G D      A
(Because these words were never easier for me to say or

     Em             D

That I can live without you but
     G           A
(Without I'll be miserable)
     Em             D
That I can live without you but
        G           A            D
(Oh without I'll be miserable at best)
