Borrowed Time Tab

by A Fine Frenzy



So I've seen lots of chords and tabs of Borrowed Time, but they're not right. The chords
technically correct, but not the capo. Like, Capo 1 Am and Capo 6 Em are the same
But Capo 6 Em had the E string on the 6th fret, which is in the song. So Capo 1 Am is 
the right chord, so to say.
The ending tab part may not be 100% correct, but it's pretty close.

Standard Tuning
Capo 6


Thick as thieves the last of leaves
        
In the winter sun

Holding fast this freezing branch
    
Is home to us

                          
Step, step right over the line
    
And onto borrowed time
                               
When it's life, not waiting to die

Waiting to divide to divide


Counting stars and passing cars
       
On the interstate
    
The end is near I feel it dear,
         
But I am not afraid

                          
Step, step right over the line
    
And onto borrowed time
                               
When it's life, not waiting to die

Waiting to divide to divide

                          
But you say you're getting tired
                       
You're tired and so am I
                      
When you follow from behind

   

                          
Step, step right over the line
    
And onto borrowed time
                               
When it's life, not waiting to die

Waiting to divide to divide

                          
But you say you're getting tired
                       
You're tired and so am I
                      
When you follow from behind
