Spirit of the Stairwell Circa Survive
Some of the chords I use aren't the exact chords used in the recording, but I
think it sounds fine.
(Standard tuning, capo on 3rd fret)
INTRO:
Em G Am C (x3)
[Em]Scratched out a note I [G]wrote for you
[Am]to wake and read
to know that [C]I was there [Em]once
I knew that there was nothing that [G]I could write to [Am]assure you
of [C]my return
But [Em]all the paper said when [G]I was done is
[Am]do you still w[C]ant me?
[Em]because I'd be terrified if I had to [G]leave this place [Am]today
We haven't [C]saved the baby
[D]As I said
my darling
spring is [C]constantly calling [D]me
and there's [C]no place that I'd rather [E]be
[Em] I [G]won't be [Am]angry
if [D]you have to [Em]leave,
but I [G]won't be [Am]waiting
[D]for that day[Em]
So don't [G]say you?re [Am]sorry because
[D]I won't [Em]believe, [G]I won't [Am]believe you
[Em]Didn't see a sticker on the [G]door when we [Am]walked in
but I know it's [C]going to cost us
the [Em]same amount of love it [G]takes to get you [Am]through
but it [C]never moves you
[Em]I'd be terrified if I had to [G]leave this place tod[Am]ay
It's where I [C]threw my love away
[Em]Then we saw a different side of [G]"Annie" nobody [Am]saw
She tried to [C]kill the baby
[D] and the earth and its skin will open up
and [C]birth out a perfect mirror [D]
that makes [C]all our reflections [E]clear
[Em] I [G]won't be [Am]angry
if [D]you have to [Em]leave,
but I [G]won't be [Am]waiting
[D]for that day[Em]
So don't [G]say you're [Am]sorry because
[D]I won't [Em]believe, [G]I won't bel[Am]ieve you
OUTRO:
[Em] [G] [Am] [C]
