Song: Seen How Things Are Hard

Tab by: J. Dekter (jdekter[at]gmail[dot]com)

I have excluded a few parts which I will add later, but this 
at least is the basis of the song.

Tuned down a whole step, played without a pick.

INTRO/VERSE: a combination of strumming and picking, you'll 
have to listen to the song to get it

 Esus2              E    Esus4
I took you to the train
 Esus2              E    Esus4
Stupid shit you displayed
C                      B
I took pictures in my head
 Esus2              E    Esus4
You an opening stare only
 Esus2              E    Esus4
Had a little dressy date
Just didn't care
C                      B      A
You were all getting drunk instead
 Esus2              E    Esus4
Seen how things are hard
 Esus2              E    Esus4
Seen how things are hard
C          B
I love you though
 Esus2              E    Esus4
Seen how things are hard
 Esus2              E    Esus4
Seen how things are hard
C              B      E
Well don't you know
Listening to what you thought was a dizzy height
Freaked out and forgot you stay well away from trouble that you caused
Using all your strength to keep the world at an arm's length
And not get upset because something goes wrong
Seen how things are hard
Seen how things are hard
I love you though
Seen how things are hard
Seen how things are hard
Well dont you know

AT THE BRIDGE, PLAY THE CHORDS OPEN
FOR SOME CHORD CHANGES THERE ARE HAMMER-ONS 

Bb             G
I'm a crap reflection of you
Am             E
I cant make corrections for you
Bb           G                  B
You have to help me patch things up
