Dull
Capo: 1st fret
[Intro]
D
I am the voice inside your head
Em
That crawled back up into your bed
G
Somehow I made off with your key and now
Gm D
I come when I please and go when I want to go
[Verse 1]
D
You are the only thing I like
Em
And you’ve been with me all the time
G
So while you’re somewhere out with your friends
Gm D
I’m back here blowing up your cell phone
[Chorus]
Em
I’ve been practicing my lines
G D
And you’ve been waiting up all night for me to call you
Em G D
It makes me sick inside to be calling you up this late at night but that’s what I do
[Verse 2]
D
You’ve been awaiting my return
Em
And I’ve been equally concerned
G
Sleeping in the back of the van
Gm D
So I can sober up and call you up again
[Chorus]
Em
I’ve been practicing my lines
G D A
And you’ve been waiting up all night for me to call you
Em G D A
It makes me sick inside to be calling you up this late at night but that’s what I do
[Post-Chorus]
Em
‘Cause there’s only one thing on my mind
G
When I hit you up this late at night
[Instrumental]
D Em G D
Em D Em D
Em G
[Outro]
D
If falling in love is the best high
Em
I’ve passed the best times of my life
G
Now the silence is cold
Gm
And every time we talk it’s dull and awkward

Palm mute all these chords with downstrokes then when you let them ring do that on the upstroke.
The timing is a little tricky but if you listen to the track you'll get it.
Also, maybe dont palm mute all 6 strings for the E but its good practice to keep you hand in that shape and
you'll need the whole chord for the upstroke.
With the bends try and let them ring out with the open string as well to get that nice dissonant sound.
[Verse]
Next bit more of the same with a bit more force to it.
The '*' next to a note means a harmonic.

Do what you fancy with hammer ons and pull offs here, not sure the actual pattern so just do what feels best
for you.
One more go round of the [Verse] progression then;
