The Long Winters - Scared guitar tab

The Long Winters - "Scared Straight"

Tabbed By: Carmen Filletti

D#m7 C#

Washington’s on the one

A#m

I’m in the middle of speaking

G#

And you’re under the gun

D#m7 C#

Seething, leave it to the lone nut

D#m7 C#

It’s unappealing in someone so young

D#m7 C#

Plaintiff, you’re feeling so washed up

A#m G#

And you mean it when you say you’re done

D#m7

Five lanes of freeway

C#

But it’s all gone dark

D#m7 C#

You called to say you’re gonna run

C# F#

Well, Can you wait?

C# F#

Can you stand it?

C# F#

Are you brave or are you

C# F#

scared straight,

C# F#

scared straight?

She didn’t want you to:

D#m7 C#

Speak right,

A#m G#

be strong,

D#m7 C#

act nice,

D#m7 C#

take so long

She didn’t want you to:

D#m7 C#

Call time,

A#m G#

seem tired,

D#m7 C#

leave mad,

D#m7 C#

get so wired

C# F#

Well, Can you wait?

C# F#

Can you stand it?

C# F#

Are you brave or are you

C# F#

scared straight,

C# F#

scared straight?

C#

Maybe you belong to someone

F#

Maybe you have finally met them

C#

Maybe smoke belongs in the sky

F#

Maybe I hate it when you cry

C# F#

Well, Can you wait?

C# F#

Can you stand it?

C# F#

Are you brave or are you

C# F#

scared straight,

C# F#

scared straight?

D#m7 C#

You were hurt so you got hard

A#m G#

You were cursed and scolded and scarred

D#m7 C#

You were searched for, then ignored

D#m7

You want to burn the liars

C#

You’ll set us both on fire

D#m7 C#

You’re faking, so I’m pretend sleeping

A#m G#

Waiting for this to be fun

D#m7 C#

It’s true little miss mean mini-bar guard

D#m7 C#

We’re gonna have to try something new

D#m7 C#

Let me breathe

D#m7 C#

Let me breathe

D#m7 C#

Let me breathe

D#m7 C# A#m G#

Let me breathe fire down on you

D#m7 C#

Let me breathe fire down on you
