Chord Letter To Georgia by The Airborne Toxic Event

song : A letter to georgia band : the airborne toxic event q/C/C : email me : schm2213@umn . edu probably the prettiest song by this band to date . absolutely heartwrenching . note : this is based on one particular live version . it is live at birmingham academy , in the uk on the 7th of november 2009 . it was played during a set that is available for download in its entirety like an hour and a half long track on the airborne website . i have seen this song performed live , and it was played slightly differently , and most youtube clips i have seen all play it differently as well . most versions ive seen he uses a capo sometimes 3 , sometimes 4 . . . ; sometimes he plays D G A , sometimes G C D . i guess we wont know the official version until the studio version comes out , but this version , the one ive downloaded from their website , is the prettiest version ive heard , so id suggest everyone grab a copy of it . if you have a different version somehow and you really like that version and it sounds slightly different , then try messing around with a capo , or if worst comes to worst replace the chords below with the following : D - > G , G - > C , A - > D , and move the capo around again . last note : the way i hear it for this version; no capo , standard tuning , he mikel avoids the top E string a lot , emphasizing instead the unchanging note D on the B string 3rd fret , like the tremolo . sometimes he does play the E string , and sometimes , instead of the D chord he plays Bm . its too hard to tell , and at this point its too irregular , to put the bms in this tab , so im just going to put ds in and if you want to throw in the occasional Bm go for it . song starts off with annas viola tremolo on note D 8th fret , high E - string . eventually , when steven guitar begins mimicking , he tremolos in a similar pattern . its pretty much top E string : 8 8 8 10 in same time as chords below , trem each . sometimes they go up to 12 , and one or both of them might add a second note via the B string . intro : after lead - in trem from anna D G D A x4 D how can i explain to you G the picture of this avenue? D the rain falls on the street outside A my window on this thursday afternoon D i sit alone inside G these sinful walls i’ve lived inside D so many lies ive lived and died A none so much as the one ive lived with you . D G i see you on the highway G a thousand miles away D rain falls through your hair and cheeks A tears and mascara streaks D your face reflected in the glass G lines in the pavement go past D just like the lines around your eyes A that held the weight of all these sad goodbyes interlude : D G D A x 4 i think the last time is Bm G D A . . . D everybody that i know G tell me just to let it go D you run from everything , they say A hurt the ones you love blindly D but here i sit and picture you G with fingers worn , your shirt torn through D your heart’s so big and broke in two A your mind drifting through all you knew D afraid to love , afraid to lose G afraid to start , afraid to choose D afraid to live , afraid to die A afraid to let you days slip by D afraid youll change or stay the same G afraid well lose ourselves again D A afraid of the truth that love D could cause you so much pain D G D A i know D i felt it , too G D i know , i know A darlin , i wish it wasn’t true . end on D
