Chord I Will Be Grateful For This Day by Bright Eyes

here’s the basic chords for the song , i’m sure i saw the intro riff somewhere but i find it right now . . enjoy . A E i had girl i knew F#m E continue for verse she grew became a woman now i think that she teaches at one of the schools downtown , we used to roll the windows down and play the music loud smoking out in her car lost in west omaha , and we’d get drunk and kiss our bodies twist like shoe laces . and we never came untied; i guess you were just my type . you know that summer never stopped . i still pretend i’m there . bands in the living room , the neighbors they never cared . chorus F#m E so when i sat behind the drum set . F#m E your heartbeat’s what i tried to play . F#m F E C# D with the kick and snares so careless not in time . D so you got ahead of me . and i guess i’m still dragging behind . back to verse i had a friend who changed his name but couldn’t change himself . never quite figured out how to do with what life had dealt . he put a needle in his arm to calm his handsome hell . who would have imagined it? could’ve worked out so well . now he’s a shape that moves like echoes through my empty room . and there’s a voice that speaks like someone’s right behind me . i turned around and found exactly what you would expect . clothes i left on my floor . the papers piled on my desk . but where the ink is where the cause effect what’s meant by it the story is incomplete . the pictures’ left unfinished . so i Am writing my own ending . i’ll let my pen bleed black or blue . and i will color in the meaning . it will be gold and green and true . and i’ll learn to love my new discovered proof . i’ll be grateful for this day . i will be grateful for each day to come .
