CLOSE YOUR EYES
Transcribed by Emily Arkin
The first half is quite simple, Em and A over and over and over again:
rhythm = _ . . _ . _ _ . . . . .
Em A
You can't make it
Em A
You can't cry
Em A
You can't make it home tonight
blahblahblah
etc. for the rest of the first half
repeat the Em A progression twice after the words end
Ok, here's the second half:
Em (last strum lands on Stop, then no guitar)
Stop
you ruined all my memories
You've ruined all my memories
