guitar chords lyrics
Must give credit to polarizh whose tabs I originally started working from. I
changed a lot to what I think sounds more fitting for translating this song to
guitar (namely acoustic guitar). These are my first tabs and I hope some of you
out there find it helpful!

Am~ Am~
Lately I can't breathe

Waiting they're chasing me

Chorus:
F C G
What if I was there
F C G
And what if I was scared
F C
I'm waiting for...
F C
They're at my door
F Cadd9 G
But I'll be back again

I'm lonely, I'm wandering
E
Patrolling for enemies
Am C F C
No one listens but I'm okay with it

chorus:

They're at my door
F Cadd9 G
But I'll be back again
F C G
And what if I was there

F Gsus4 (let it ring)
They're at my door
Note: The bridge can be played with just C but I think it's more interesting to
have another chord in there. Also, novice players can just play C and G instead of
Cadd9 and Gsus4 if you must.
Thanks!
