This is my best guess on timing for the chord changes. The C#M chord is version 2. The A chord is version 4
The E chord is version 8 
I did not include his solo because I would much rather
make up my own. you could probably find tabs for it somewhere on youtube. please leave a good review. sorry if
it is not perfect, this is my first tab so give me a little grace. enjoy!

[Verse 1]


            
 it's not a si


lly little mom

ent
             
It's not the s

              
torm before th

  
e calm
             
This is the de

#
ep and dying b

reath of
             
This love that

            
 we've been wo

rking on
              
Can't seem to 


hold you like 

I want to
             
So I can feel 

          
you in my arms
         
Nobody's going

 to come and s

ave you
             
We pulled too 

     
many false ala

rms


[Chorus]
            
We're going do

wn
            
And you can se

     
e it, too
            
We're going do

wn
           
And you know t

           
hat we're doom

ed
           
My dear, we're

              
 slow dancing 

            
in a burning r

[Verse 2]
          
I was the one

amed of
             
You were the o

              
ne I tried to 


draw
             
How dare you s

Baby, you're t

I ever saw
              
I'll make the 


most of all th

e sadness
             
You'll be a **

              
***, because y

   
ou can
           
You try to hit

 me, just to h

urt me

So you leave me feeling dirty
             
'Cause you can

            
't understand


[Chorus]
            
We're going do

wn
            
And you can se

And you know t

[Bridge]
          
  Go cry about

 you?
          
  Go cry about

              
 it, why don't


 you?
          
  Go cry about

[Outro]
  
  
  
  
              
Don't you thin
