                             OCTOBER - Broken Bells
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is very similar to BrokenShins' chords. I've added tabs to the melody and intro to help beginners, as
well as fixing one chord in the chorus and some minor lyric fixes. Enjoy, and rate if you like it!
 
EDIT: Significant lyric fixes! These lyrics are 100% correct!

Verse
 
F#m        D                       F#m    D
    So you show me round your town,    To hell again and back
F#m     D                   A                 E
    Our love has served to alienate all the friends you depend on
F#m     D                    F#m                D
    I know it might seem odd,    because you're not the only one
F#m     D                    A                 E                  B
    I remember myself as a lonely child, so I was, and you got me wrong, you got me wrong
 
 
Chorus (electric guitar plays Melody)
 
F#m        E          B            F#m      A         B
Ground your sense of worth, til the spark of morning burns
F#m           E           B           F#m        A        B
And all those searching eyes, do they scald your tender mind?
 
 
Verse
 
Remember what they say, there's no shortcut to a dream
It's all blood and sweat, and life is what you manage in between
But what you don't know is you're too young and eager to love
Seething eyes see you're about to get in to the ditch that you opened up
 
 
Chorus (end on D instead of B)
 
 
Bridge
 
B           A           F#m           D
    So the stars align,    and leave you behind
B               A         F#m          D
    You want to sew it up,   I come by light of an autumn moon
B      A                    F#m         D
    Sister, you know enough,    but for now just let it go
B         A               F#m      D
    Don't run, don't rush,    just flow
 
 
Chorus (different lyrics)
 
Through the give and take, you've had to learn
How to cross the coals and not get burned
But you're really just a little girl
Playing in the park til the sun goes down
 
 
Verse
 
So twenty-one arrives. One did, it's our desire
No doubt you think you've braided your own hair, so you're all grown up
Should you want to cross the line, which way do you wanna fly?
Pretend that love could help you find your way but you've got me wrong
Yeah you've got me wrong.
            End on F#m
