Absentee

• G

This is Absentee by Jack Campbell. It was played as Welcome to Night 
Vale weather in the episode The Auction. This is just a simplified 
version for people who are just starting out. For full chords check
out his tutorial with the chords in the desciption and his lyrics are 
on the bandcamp page or I may just make another one or someone else will 
idk. I might just keep editing this who knows.

Enjoy! :) feel free to post covers you make in the comments.

He plays it on Capo 2 I think, so these chords are relative to the capo.

G

G
Love without anxiety
G 
It's like love, except you're free 

Em7
And I can't go back 
A
They'll eat me alive 
C
If it came to that 
I wouldn't even try 

G

C
And that would be it for me 
Cm
My heart's another absentee (I'm there for no one) 
Bm                       Em D
It's not like anyone would give a damn 

C
And i'm trying to stick it to freud 
Cm
I'm lying low and I'm filling that void 
Bm                                        Em D
With anything that I can show to prove i'm not a waste of space 

C
I don't need you to be proud of me 
Cm
I just want to you to see 
                           G
What I can do when you leave

G

G
Love without the wobbly knees 
G
It may not be as exciting 

Em7
But I'd take it any day 
A
I prefer the lower heart rate 
C
That comes to me 
Of my family 

(Interlude) 
Em7 Cm G 4x

C
And that could be anyone 
Cm
For all I care 
Bm                 Em D
No, I just don't wanna be alone 

C
I might cause myself a loss of blood 
Cm
Or a loss of hair 
Bm                          Em D
But you can never make me pick up the phone 

C
But that doesn't mean 
Cm
Your love has got to be 
G
Lost on me

G
