Ache Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Jawbreaker
All of these are of course powerchords, but I put them into major and minor chords, in case
you want to play this song on an acoustic or something.

Intro:
G Am Bm C
Let the C chord ring here and everytime it's played throughout the verse.

G             Am
 I believe in desperate acts
    Bm                     C
The kind that make me look stupid - look like a fool
G          Am            Bm
 Just keep reinventing myself
     C
It's move or die - I change my form
      G                 Am
These days the people I love
    Bm             C
are spread so far apart - all out of reach
G       Am   Bm
 It's a thin sheet
           C
Across the face - cover me now

Pre-Chorus:
Em             Bm    C Am
 That's pretty old
Em             Bm C    Am
 That's pretty oooold
  Em              Bm
I never felt like this before
  C              Am
I say that every hour
  Em              Bm
I never felt like this before
  C              Am
I say that every hour

G                    Am                    Bm
 It's never going to be like it could have been
                C
Now it's just this room - window looks back
G         Am          Bm
 You're a big part of it
            C
But I don't care - you take the lead
        G          Am          Bm
And can you really see me now
       C
Like I made me - made me anew
G    Am   Bm     C
Just like anyone else - safer alone

Repeat Pre-Chorus.

Chorus:
G   F#/D      Em
 So right, so wrong
        D               C
Another winter's coming on
G    F#/D     Em
 You win, you lose
         D        C
It's the same old news - these things go wrong so often
G     F#/D   Em
 Pick up the phone
    D               C
And punch your home code
G    F#/D       Em          D        C
 Somewhere, sometime let me make you mine

G         Am      Bm
Lean your head on mine
         C
Like you used to - used to your lean
G Am    Bm             C
I don't mind if you're faking it - make it seem real
G        Am
 I'm not asking the questions
Bm                             C
 I'm not demanding the answers now - take what you give
         G           Am               Bm
Right or wrong, just take me, lead me on
    C
I'm going - I'm going

Repeat Chorus. End on C.

So that's it. Pretty simple like most Jawbreaker songs, but amazing nonetheless. Also like
most Jawbreaker songs. And this is one of their best, at least lyrically.
