Permanent Tab

by Jason Reeves


This is very easy song to play, although your hand may start to cramp after awhile…its 
very high. Depending on your voice you can adjust the capo but Jason plays it on 9 in the video.

Chords –

 – 320033 (for the verse its easier to play 320003 for the switch)
 – 002013
 – 022033
 – 032033
 – 2X0033

When Jason plays Am7 in the verses he will pull off and hammer on the B string. So the 
for that would be (in this order):

002003
002013
002033

It sounds cool but takes muscle memory…but it can be played with or without this, it 
fine either way. Both verses and both chorus 1 and 2 are the same, so just refer back to 
tabbed ones and you shouldn’t have any trouble.

Intro: ,  x2

(Verse 1)

                            
You liked it so much in the city

                             
You know I could not stand it there

                             
You loved to get lost in the people

                             
And pretend that they really cared

                             
You know you're such a bad imposter

                             
Hiding your wings beneath your coat

                                   
And I watched your footprints makin patterns

                     
Away from me into the snow

                                 
Now I don't believe in nothing anymore



(Chorus)

                   
Love is permanent, not temporary

                           
And it's driven straight into our chest

                    
And buried much too deep

                          
To just pull out like weeds in a garden

         
It's permanent

        
Well I'm sorry


(Verse 2):

                         
So lately I've been goin crazy
Tryin to get you off my mind
Cuz thoughts of you hang just like pictures
And gather dust over the time

                              
We hung them up just like real lovers
And drove our nails into the wall
Cuz we thought they'd be there forever
But we weren't permanent at all

                                        
And it's getting much too hard to see it now

Love is permanent not temporary
And it's driven straight into our chest
And buried much too deep
To just pull out like weeds in a garden
It's permanent
Well I'm sorry

Love is permanent not temporary
And it's driven straight into our chest
And buried much too deep
To just pull out like weeds in a garden
It's permanent
Well I'm sorry

I'm sorry
It's permanent
I'm sorry

Just continue playing Em, Cadd9, G and D until song is over.
