		Desperate Hands - Jarrod Gorbel
Tabbed by: adslam3


This is the first song off of the "bruises from your bad dreams" EP.

For the verses, you should play the A like a barre chord (577655).
I've seen Jarrod use an open A (-02220) for the chorus.

The chords ending in "5" are just power chords: D5 -577-- , C#5 -466--,
B5 -244--.
A chord chart is at the bottom.
ENJOY.



VERSE 1
A
It's been several hours,
F#m
Since our incident
Bm
Clothes are torn, glass shattered
D5       C#5          B5          E
It was a year leading up to this event,
          D5         C#5             B5          E
She had a melt down, cried wolf, and can't be trusted

A
You took the biggest knife in the kitchen you could find,
F#m
Called the police and claimed that I was trying,
Bm                                     D                   E
Trying to kill you, when in fact I was trying to save your life
A
You had me trapped in my own apartment,
F#m
24 hours, dodging clenched fists,
Bm                                           D          E
Scribbling letters, bidding your friends and family farewell


CHORUS
A                     F#m
Desperate hands and a hollow heart, 
Bm                        D          E
Whiskey unleash the beast starving inside of me,
A             F#m
No one will understand us.
      Bm                     D             E
Feel less like her lover and more like her father


VERSE 2
A
Are you gonna be a good girl?
F#m
Can you make me that promise?
Bm
Not to lash out on me, 
D5        C#5              B5            E
How is it that you made my life a living hell,
      D5         C#5       B5        E
But I still find you to be irreplaceable 

A
Which of my things did you sneak out last night?
F#m
In hopes to bring us together one last time
Bm                               D        E
Ransom being the only thing that you have left


CHORUS
A                     F#m
Desperate hands and a hollow heart, 
Bm                        D          E
Whiskey unleash the beast starving inside of me,
A             F#m
No one will understand us.
      Bm                     D             E
Feel less like her lover and more like her father


BRIDGE
F#m           D              A          E
Threatened to throw yourself out of the car
   F#m       D            A            E
In rush hour traffic, sixteen miles an hour. 
                 F#m  D           A       E
There's a better way,   don't you think?
           F#m D             A       E
Just if we wait until we get home


CHORUS 3/End
A                     F#m
Desperate hands and a hollow heart, 
Bm                        D          E
Whiskey unleash the beast starving inside of me,
A             F#m
No one will understand us.
      Bm                     D             E
Feel less like her lover and more like her father

END on A
