Matt Skiba In Your Wake Lyrics

In Your Wake - Matt Skiba - Matt Skiba/Kevin Seconds Split
D# Standard/Half a step down (D#G#C#F#A#D#)
This is the chords and lyrics for 'In Your Wake' by Matt Skiba off his split
with Kevin Seconds. It's a great song and quite easy to play. I advise
listening to it carefully a few times before you learn it so the rhythm will
come naturally to you. Enjoy :).
Chords used:
These are named relative to standard tuning, but since this song is half a step
down, they will all be a semi-tone down pitch wise, but lets just go by their
G#/E5 (476xxx)
Intro Riff: C#5 x4, A5 x4, E5 x8
Play Intro Riff x2
And so it seems
you were to be king for a day
Don't let your dreams
of blood hunger in the way
You know these streets,
they lay there patiently
Awaiting your fall, like a phone call
And I see
you made all the right decisions
I believe
your head stone received the wrong inscription
Didn't read anything about how much we miss you at all
So with a broken stick, in dirt we scrawled
Here lies
our dreams come true
Here lies Xs for eyes on me and you
Want you know, I hope you got all you wanted
Want you to know that I took all I could take
It's been so hard to see and breathe through
All the smoke left in your wake
In your wake
Play Intro Riff x2
Now I've seen
you made all the right decisions
I believe your head stone received the wrong inscription
Didn't read anything about how much we miss you at all
With a broken stick, in dirt we scrawled
Here lies
our dreams come true
Here lies Xs for eyes on me and you
Want you know, I hope you got all you wanted
Want you to know that I took all I could take
It's been so hard to see and breathe through
All the smoke left in your wake
In your wake
In your wake
In your wake
End on a final E5 here.
