Version 1
Lead guitar also plays open high Eb string at the same time as the
notes in the tab below.
I'm also not exactly sure what Lee plays in the last bar of the
interlude, but you can play it like in the intro.

[Verse 1]
Cm Eb Ab Eb
I think I feel better just without the noise
Ab Eb Bb
I'm coming into the void and I hope that it likes me
Cm Eb Ab Eb
And I know my head landed in the dark where it did
Ab Eb Bb
You can scratch, you can spit, and I think that I'm chickenshit
Cm Bb Ab Eb
You said no one had kissed you quite as much as I had
Ab Eb Bb
And it made me feel sad and scared of more kissing
Cm Bb Ab Eb
I said, "What I fear most from you right now is hope"
Ab Eb Bb
Let's just stroke our egos and then talk in the morning
[Chorus]
N.C. Eb Ab
And I still dream about you
Cm Bb Eb Ab
And I don't know if I want to, but I do
Cm Bb Eb Ab
And I still dream about you
Cm Bb Eb Ab
Maybe this is the thing that I never get through

[Verse 2]
Cm Eb Ab Eb
I'll try to remember but I'll probably forget
Ab Eb Bb
The first night that we met and you sunk your teeth into me
Cm Eb Ab Eb
And I'll fondly regret all my lost friends and dead pets
Ab Eb Bb
What I wish I'd said to them when I had the opportunity
[Chorus]
N.C. Eb Ab
And I still dream about you
Cm Bb Eb Ab
And I don't know if I want to, but I do
Cm Bb Eb Ab
And I still dream about you
Cm Bb Eb Ab
Maybe this is the thing that I never get through
[Bridge]
Eb Ab
We did the dumb thing in the scary motel
Eb Ab
Lucy said I was a dickhead, Lucy knows me too well
Eb Ab
But I am nothing like the boys from your town
Eb Ab
No, I am nothing like the boys you grew up around
Eb Ab
We did the dumb thing in the scary motel
Eb Ab
Lucy said I was a dickhead, Lucy knows me too well
Eb Ab
But I am nothing like the boys from your town
Eb Ab
No, I am nothing like the boys you grew up around
[Outro]
Eb Ab
I still dream about you (I still dream about you)
Eb Ab
I still dream about you (I still dream about you)
Cm Bb
I still dream about you (I still dream about you)
Eb Ab
Maybe this is the thing that I never get through
Eb Ab
