["Every Night"]

[Bass begins alone, playing the verse once. Drums enter the second time

through. When the drums enter, turn on distortion or turn up your volume

dial to create mild feedback. Guitar enters the third time through, when the

words start.]

[Verse]:

G# C#

I'm not feeling human anymore

D# F C#

Half connected all the time

G# C#

Each night I document the things I've done

D# F C#

The pointless points I've made for stupid reasons

[Chorus]:

G# D# C#

Every night, every night, every night I'm always the same

You're pounding on my brain

G# D# C#

Tonight and every night I lie down clenching up my teeth

Trying to fall asleep

[G# / D# / C#] x2

[Verse]:

I've sat and smoked a billion cigarettes

And wished to hell that you were here

My stained and calloused fingers hold a pen

Scratching apologies to you, too late, too little

[Chorus]:

Every night, every night

Every night I pay off my debts

Trust me, I don't forget

Tonight and every night I will analyze everything

And make myself count the ways

C# (strike chord once and let hang)

I fucked up today

[G#(pm) / D#(pm) / C#(pm)] Play this progression through the end, taking the

palm mutes out when the drums start slamming hard (real technical, I know.)

Lead riff -- played at the end
