Tuning: Standard, E A D G B E
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
oom

[Verse 2]
I was the one
you always dre
amed of
You were the o
ne I tried to
draw
How dare you s
#
ay it's nothin
g to me?
Baby, you're t
he only light
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
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
oom
[instrumental]
[Bridge]
Go cry about
it, why don't
you?
Go cry about
it, why don't
you?
Go cry about
it, why don't
you?
[Chorus]
My dear, we're
slow dancing
in a burning r
oom
[Outro]
Don't you thin
k we ought to
know by now?
Don't you thin
k we should ha
ve learned som
ehow?
Don't you thin
k we ought to
know by now?
Don't you thin
k we should ha
ve learned som
ehow?
Don't you thin
k we ought to
know by now?
Don't you thin
k we should ha
ve learned som
ehow?
