Sympathy Lyrics

Basically royalewocheese's version with some little corrections
Chords:
s2b5
*Sample strumming* This is the recommended strumming for the intro. You only play the
first measure (the first box below) once at the intro and everytime you switch from a
different set of chord changes into the Cadd9 Em7 Asus G chords of the verses. So Play
the second strumming part i wrote out over and over for the verses and the first part
only when
you switch into a verse.
you play this holding the chords that are written out except that you don't really strum
through the whole chord. i wrote out the parts of the chord that i play when i strum.
also, in between almost everytime that you switch from one chord to another chord, you
strum a chord not written out where you ONLY fret the 3rd fret of the E and B strings. That
change is written out in the strum pattern as 0033. This is only a rough guide you can
be a bit sloppy with the actual strings hit as long as your rhythm is good.

Intro: Cadd9 Em7 Asus G
Stranger than your sympathy.
And this is my apology,
I'm killing myself from the inside out,
And all my fears have pushed you out.
And I wished for things that I don't need.
All I wanted...
And what I chase won't set me free.
It's all I wanted...
And I get scared, but I'm not crawling on my knees.
Oh yeah, everything's all wrong, and yeah...
Everything's all wrong, and yeah...
Where the hell did I think I was?
*Pick stroke direction is very important in making this next riff sound right so I
labeled the pick stroke under each of the notes. oh yeah and let the strings you hit in this
riff ring esp the D string:
v = up stroke
u = down stroke
u u u u v u v u
And Stranger than your sympathy,
I take these things so I don't feel.
I'm killing myself from the inside out,
And now my head's been filled with doubt.
And it's hard to lead the life you choose,
All I wanted...
When all your lucks run out on you.
All I wanted...
And you can't see when all your dreams are coming true.
Oh yeah, it's easy to forget, and yeah.
And you choke on the regrets, and yeah.
Who the hell did I think I was?
u u u u v u v u
And Stranger than your sympathy,
And all these thoughts you stole from me.
And I'm not sure where I belong.
Nowhere's home and I'm all wrong
And I wasn't all the things
I tried to make believe I was.
And I wouldn't be the one
To kneel before the dreams I wanted
And all the talk,
And all the lies
Were all the empty things disguised as me
Mmmmm Yeah.
Stranger than your sympathy,
Stranger than your sympathy,
