At the end of each C#m, slide up

..to a partial E:

(0:25 - Play intro/verse above)

[E]Careful with [G#m]words

They are so [C#m]meaningful

[E]Yet [G#m]they scatter like

[C#m]The booze from a breath

This genius is dead

[E]Happy and willing to [G#m]die

..for your [C#m]love

[E]Happy and willing to [G#m]die 

..... [C#m]

(1:10 - Acoustic strum of the same

..progression, electric over that)

[E]Back in the [G#m]bedroom it’s

..[C#m]4am

[E]Hear the [G#m]clatter from the

..[C#m]neighbors upstairs

[E]Happy and willing to [G#m]die

..for your [C#m]love

[E]Happy and willing to [G#m]die 

..... [C#m]

(1:57 - Violin solo, continue with

..verse)

The violin plays:

e---11h12h11--9---------7-----|

B---------------9-----7---9---|

[E]Laid off for [G#m]weeks now,

..can [C#m]feel the sore

[E]Still in [G#m]tatters from the

..[C#m]smell of you

[E]Happy and willing to [G#m]die

..for your [C#m]love

[E]Happy and willing to [G#m}die,

..so [C#m] cold

[G#m]I won’t make a [E] sound

[C#m]I'll sleep on the floor

Lay on the [G#m] couch

Don't put yourself [E] out

(verse repeats, then the chorus

..again to fade out)
