The Glass by The Story So Far
The Glass
Before you get confused, let me tell you that the chord names are correct. However, they
may not correct relative to the tuning. For example The first chord (x466xx) should be
C#, but the guitar would be down a halfstep the chord is really a C. Sorry if this is
confusing, but the song is probably played in Drop D and i prefer not to play in drop D
so i
tried to make it work for both Drop D and Down a half step. You can always email me if
you are still confused.
*Edit: If you decide to play it in the down-a-half-step tuning, you may find it easier
to read by going looking to the left of your screen and translating all of the chords up
a half step. Then the chords you read will be relative to the tuning.

The Story So Far "The Glass" Lyrics
Lead you so far down
I could tell you'd never been
Told me that time's near
And how it will change everything
I'm not so open like the window you are
The glass just reflects the scar
Told me that you had to leave
But how the fuck does that change anything?
Your glare is the faintest
No brightness to show
I made the best of what I thought
was impossible
You were the spade I used
To dig this hole
Blistered my skin to the bone
Swear all the pain's done
No trace or tremor here
Or am I still numb? Have I been this whole year?
So let me bite down, feel the clench in my teeth
Till I come around then relapse and repeat
And now you're gone.
