Please Pardon Yourself Tab

by The Avett Brothers


capo 2

                                      
as I turned my head to your side of the bed...


                                
why are you awake? What’s on your mind


                                 
to this awful news try not to hold on


                                               
the day will come the sun will rise and we'll be fine

                               
As long as I feel as strong as I feel

                            
I will carry you as long as I can

                                 
As hard on yourself, please pardon yourself

                                      
Do the best you can and that won't go unseen

                              
How do I know when its time to stop


Runnin' from the things I do, Bein' things I'm not
                           
Oh I have tried, but I just changed my mind
                                
Every night befalls every morning light

                                 
How do I know that you will never stop


Knowing me and trusting me, loving me alot
 
                           
Oh I have tried, but I just changed my mind

                                
Every night befalls every morning light

                        
Well there's only so many ways
        
                          
You can give your loving to me

                                        
But I'd give my soul for just one of them now

                                     
I'd give up the drinkin', just tell me how

(Repeat chords from last 4 lines)
And there's only so many years
I can give my love to you
And I spent the last one hidden away
Screaming my lungs out, nothing to say

(repeat first verse)
