Age Of Assassins Tab

by Two Gallants


These are the basic chords. So find out how to pick it exactly yourself. Get the melody 
when he starts " when I die alone.." and it will sound pretty well.

capo: 2 fret


            
Oh when the summer sun come cutting

Like a clean razor blade
       
And I wake to the day and all the visions I've made
 
Reached out my hand for the curl of her hair
     
And whisper my dreams to the girl who's not there
 
Gather some memory from the night before
                                   
Where'd she go? she go, where'd she go?

Screaming of threats and slam of a door


                                     
Well I don't know, don't know, don't know

      
So I look to the window and the city below
      
From this bed of mine

Where I eat sweet jelly rolls
       
Think I'll put on my face

I'd like to fix me a drink
        
'Cause somewhere someone knows just what I think
      
Last night's but a question that hangs likes a noose
                    
'Round my throat, my throat

Surely tonight, I'll invite its abuse


                                 
Well there's no hope, no hope, no hope

         
Goodness me, oh my
                         
Oh my god, I still might be fine
                             
Get through all the pains I fake
                      
Poor boy could use a break
                           
A break from my own daily hate, oh
                           
"Pain is something no one else knows"
                         
That's what I hear them say
                           
But everyone bereaves the day
                             
I said weary weary walk away


      
So I take to the streets like the dead to the grave
     
You light me a smoke because it's right to behave
         
And I'm all juiced up all morning because the morning is when
 
Heros stand tall in the statues of men

             
And all the pigeons adore me and peck at my feet
                          
Oh the fame, the fame, the fame
  
Someday they may use my head as a seat
                                   
Well I can't wait, can't wait, can't wait


         
Goodness me, oh my
                          
Oh my god, I still might get by
                              
Get through all the pains I fake
                      
Poor boy could use a break
                           
A break from my own daily hate, oh
                           
"Pain is something no one else knows"
                         
That's what I hear them say
                           
But everyone bereaves the day
                                 
I said weary weary walk away


                 
When I die alone bury me deep
                   
Way out west past Sunset Street
                                      
So I can hear old 29 when she goes rollin' by
                      
And when they come to claim my skin
                    
And I go back where I begin
                      
Place the stones at my head and feet
                          
Tell them all I've gone to sleep


            
And as the city unravels her metal bedroll
                                       
I dirty her sheets with the stumble I stroll

And the people all stop just to watch me go by
         
With a thirst in my throat and a tear in my eye

                                                                                 
                                                            
So riddle me this while I lend you my soul in a song, in a song, a song
    
And balance the sky on these shoulders of mine
                             
Until the dawn, the dawn, the dawn

         
Goodness me, oh my
                          
Oh my god, I still might get by
                              
Get through all the pains I fake
                       
Poor boy could use a break
                           
A break from my own daily hate, oh
                            
"Pain is something no one else knows"
                         
That's what I hear them say
                           
But everyone bereaves the day
                                         
I said weary weary walk away
