-First off, congratulate yourself for having excellent taste in music
-Those are all 11s, not 1s
-In the into, verse, and prechorus, be sure to mute all the strings youre not playing
with your index finger/thumb (I didnt feel like writing in all those xs)
-The rhythm is pretty easy to pick up, watch the video for it
-Lerner does throw an occasional variation into the strumming pattern, so play around
with it a bit
-Corrections can go in the comments

Verse
Maybe I couldnt be your man
Maybe I couldnt even understand
The things we say stop making any sense
Started feeling like it was an accident
Chorus
Now I sleep alone and its hard
Now we sleep together and its hard
Verse
Maybe I had the right of way
Shut my mouth or listen to what you say
Something say some things fall apart
Im not a poet no Im nothing of the sort
Chorus
Now I sleep alone and its hard
Now we sleep together and its hard
Outro
Now I sleep alone and its hard
Now Im looking for the truth
Come and answer me now
Come and answer me now
Now Im looking for the truth
Come and answer me now
Come and answer me now
And remember, no mountain too tall and good luck to all. And buy Telekinesis.
