Verse #1:

F                                 C    Bb
I'm only pretty sure that I can't take anymore.  Before you
F             C    Bb
take a swing, I wonder what are we fighting
F                                       C   Bb
for. When I say out loud, I want to get out of this,
    F                         C     Bb
I wonder, is there anything I'm gonna miss

Chorus #1:

Bb
I wonder
Gm                                C
How's it gonna be, when you don't know me,
Gm                                  Bb
How's it gonna be, when you're sure I'm not there,
Gm                              C
How's it gonna be, when there's no one there to talk to,
Gm                    Bb
Between you and me, 'cause I don't care, How's it gonna

F     C      Bb
be...

Verse #2:

F                                     C         Bb
Where we used to laugh, there's a shouting match.  Sharp as a thumbnail
F                C                Bb
scratch.  A silence I can't ignore.  Like the hammock by the doorway
F                                    C          Bb
we spent time in, swing's empty.  I don't see lightning like last fall,
F                  C      Bb
when it was always about to hit me

Chorus #2:

Bb
I wonder
Gm                         C
How's it gonna be, when  it goes down
Gm                                Bb
How's it gonna be, when you're not around
Gm                              C
How's it gonna be, when you found out there was nothing
Gm                       Bb
Between you and me, 'cause I don't care, How's it gonna

F    C    Bb
be...

--heavy part (i suggest using power chords)--

Gm             Bb                F          C

How's it gonna be

F                 C             Bb
Wanna kill myself like he did
F        C              Bb
the salt of love dreary air
F                              C        Bb
I wanna taste the salt of your skin
F                        C        Bb
the salt of the bloomy air the bloomy air (blew my head?)


Gm             Bb                F          C
