Crustfall - Days N' Daze
Tuning: C, E A D G B E
One of my favorite songs. Listen to the lyrical patterns to get them right,
they're pretty hard to get because
Days N' Daze does some crazy stuff with their syllables.
[Intro]
(
(Listen to the
song for the
fingering thin
g, walking pat
tern on the hi
gh e string wi
th the pinky.)
(Trumpet)
[Verse 1]
I can no longe
r discern whet
her the sun is
rising
Or if it's set
ting, inching
closer to my o
wn demising
Becomes so app
arent what's i
mportant to me
You can say it
sounds cliche
, but friends
all come and g
o away
My family's be
en here to sta
y, they stuck
with me throug
h darker days
When I was bro
wnin out
And fallin' out and fuckin' up
They stuck aro
und to help me
out
And never once gave up on me
[Verse 2]
I don't know m
aybe they shou
ld've
Shit ya know I
sure as hell
would've
I'll never pos
sess the poise
It takes to de
al with me
Cause I'm a th
ief, a drunk,
a cheat, a lia
r
Beneath my dea
thbed awaits t
hat fire
Cause I've was
ted time
Tryin to find
what's so simp
le to see
[Verse 3]
That the world
's a scary fuc
ked up place
To call your h
ome and to nav
igate
So to the peop
le who compose
my compass
A few words to
you
[Chorus]
Well I know ti
me's runnin ou
t
So before ya l
ay my body dow
n
Before ya dres
s me up
And drop me si
x feet down
I wanna make s
ure that you k
now
I love you and
thanks for pu
ttin' up
With all my sh
it
[Verse 4]
We're all just
thrown into t
his world expe
cted to exist
To carve a nic
he and carry o
n without slit
ting your wris
ts
But when the s
tress is just
too much to gr
asp without an
y support
Your mind will
splinter, ver
ging on collap
se, you're wal
king in a corp
se
When the chips
are down it's
nice to have
somebody in yo
ur corner
Just to have y
our back and t
ell you everyt
hing will be a
lright
It fucking kil
ls me that I'v
e ever taken m
y loved ones f
or granted
It's true what
they say, you
don't know wh
at you've got
until it's gon
e
[Verse 5]
The one thing
I fear the mos
t
Is losing anyo
ne I care abou
t
To only ever g
et to see
Them smile in
old photograph
s
The scribbles
on our epitaph
s
May not be set
in stone
I know sometim
es it's hard f
or me to show
it
But I love you
more than you
will ever kno
w it
[Chorus]
Well I know ti
me's runnin ou
t
So before ya l
ay my body dow
n
Before ya dres
s me up
And drop me si
x feet down
I wanna make s
ure that you k
now
I love you and
thanks for pu
ttin' up
With all my sh
it
[Modified Chorus]
Well I know ti
me's runnin ou
t
So before ya l
ay my body dow
n
Before ya dres
s me up
Commit me to t
he ground
Wanna make sur
e that you kno
w I love you,
and
Thanks for put
tin' up with a
