Tuning: Standard
This is a great song by the band Balance & Composure, I've been searching the internet
for a tab/chords to this song and couldn't find them anywhere, so i decided to give it a
try myself. This is the first tab that I've attempted, so sorry if there's any mistakes.
If you see any problems, feel free to e-mail me and I will do my best to put it right. Thanks.
Intro: C G Am F x2
CG
Bow your head close your eyes,
AmF
pray that you'll see your son again.
CG
He's been there your whole life,
AmF
watching the door for you to come in.

He's not like other boys,
AmF
he's got good ideas, his thoughts are real.
CGAm
But now he's lost his head, his heart and soul,
F
He cannot feel.

So carry on with your dull life,

keep the guilt deep in your chest,

deep inside oh, don't let anyone in.

Your son's losing all hope,
AmF
he drags his feet when he walks.

You will not see him cry,

What's been holding you back?
AmF
Just let him know you love him.

What's he supposed to think of dear old dad,
F
a real man.
GF
So carry on with your dull life,
AmG
keep the guilt deep in your chest,
FAm
deep inside of, don't let anyone in.
They play a solo here, which i could be bothered to work it out properly. I might one
day get round to tabbing it, if you desperately want it, just send me an email and i'll be
happy to do it but i like to just improvise this bit. But here is like the main bit of
the solo:
