This is a great song by Blink, one of their most talented songs.. Make sure to note the
difference between E5 and E2, it makes quite a difference.. an octave to be exact...
CHORDS:
EADGBE
G5 (355xxx)
A5 (x022xx)
C5 (x355xx)
D5 (x577xx)
E5 (022xxx)
E2 (x799xx)
INTRO:
This is the bassline that starts the song:
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------5---3---2-------5---3---2-------5---3---2---3---2---3---2----|
E|--3-3---3---3---3-3-3---3---3---3-3-3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3--|
Play the bassline twice. Then the bass keeps playing the
same bassline while the guitar starts playing the chords
below:
G5 A5 C5
So sorry it's over
G5 A5 C5
So sorry it's over
G5 A5
There's so much more that I wanted and
C5
There's so much more that I needed and
G5 A5 C5
Time keeps moving on and on and on
D5 [stop]
Soon we'll all be gone
The tab below is used often in the song. About the hammer-ons
(h) I've put in there, I'm not sure if he actually uses them
or if he picks every note, but I think it sounds much better
with the hammer-ons so try both and see what you think.

VERSE 1: [play chords palm-muted]
G5
Let's take some time to talk this over
E5 C5
You're out of line and rarely sober
G5
We can't depend, on your excuses
E5 C5
'Cause in the end it's fucking useless
CHORUS: [strum chords normally]
G5 D5
You can only lean, on me for so long
E2 C5
Bring the ship about to watch a friend drown
G5 D5
Sit out on the ledge, begged you to come down
E2 C5
You can only lean on me for so long

VERSE 2:
G5
I remember shots, without a chaser

Absent minded thoughts now you're a stranger

Left you in the bar to try and save face
CHORUS: [play like first CHORUS]

You can only lean, on me for so long

You can only lean on me for so long

G5 C5
Man on a mission, can't say I miss him around

Tight lipped procrastination
C5 D5 G5
