Verse 1
Early winter, falling rain
Don't know when I'll be myself again
So bittersweet to leave this way
I've never witnessed such a perfect day
Chorus
warmth of the morning sun
your eyes when I tell you're the one
Verse 2
So bittersweet to say goodbye

MRSA Girl
Intro
Em/Am/D/Em
Verse 1
-----Em
Your mother's got that look like she gave up long ago
--Am
Defeated by forces that she could not control
D
Now she only feels alive,
-----------------------------Em
when she reaches out for the bottle
She's got a firm grip on number one and leaves you out in the cold
Blinded by a life of pain and that callus on her soul
The beauty of your smile goes unnoticed as she drains another bottle
Chorus
-------------C-------------------------------Em
They say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree
---------C--------------------------------Em
But it's sure to rot if you just leave it be
-----C
MRSA Girl don't let them drag[take] you down
------D
Don't lose your innocence
--------Em
You can dream / You can break free
Verse 2
Your father learned you gotta be tough to make it in this world
Never let them see you're scared, or that you can be controlled
Protective of that inner core, but it's too late now 'cuz it's all gone rotten
His daughter's just a side-effect of a random act of love
There's a chance here for salvation but it won't come from above
His wayward eyes are glassy now and I think your fate is sure to be forgotten
Chorus
Interlude
D/DSus/C * 3, Em [4m] [repeat]
Em/Am/D/Em
Verse 3
You reached out with your spirit in a time of desperate need
Unbroken yet you slipped away from the hand that wouldn't feed
Though I felt so sorry, far stronger was the anger at your rejection
I'm hoping you can hear me though I don't know where your are
Maybe you'll get this message floating in from afar
It's not your fault how they choose to be and you're not accountable for their affliction
Chorus

Something Beautiful Happening
Key of E
Very fast strumming
E-D-A-E is general pattern
Main guitar actually plays E-B drone chords for these using an 'A2' pattern, so :
E is E5 at 7th
D is D6/9 at 5th
A is A2
G is G6 at 10th
Other guitar can play regular E-D-A open chords, and also mix them with Sus4 versions in a measure, like :
E-ESus4-E-E
Intro :
- Finger pick E2/D2/A2 open chords, or pick
- Play 1 bar of E-D-A-E drone sequence
E
Into the darkness, out of the light
D
There's something strange here, it doesn't feel right
A-----------------------------------------E
Oooh, there's something beautiful happening.
You might be thinking, it's all lost for you
Got a chance now, to make something new.
Oooh, there's something beautiful happening.
Interlude:
GDEE GDEE AAAA[high fret] DDDD EEEE
All around me, disease and despair
But can't you hear it, gasping for air
Oooh, there's something beautiful happening.

The Beast
Key of G
Verse 1
----Em------------C
The Beast said to me
--------Em--------C
He said come over here boy
--Em--------------C
I got to show you something
---------D7
That you ain't never seen
Well I went willingly
With all my curiosity
I had to see this thing
That could educate me
Chorus
G,D,C * 3
And soon I was flying down a river of pain
Or maybe it was pleasure, I was going insane
I lost all control of the thing they call brain
D,DSus
until I came....out of that dream
Verse 2
The Beast said to me
he said sorry 'bout that boy
You really shouldn't take it all
so seriously
I got something else
behind door number three
I know you're gonna love it
And I just had to see
Chorus
Solo
Verse 3
The Beast said now boy,
we've been through this before
You like to deny it
But I know you want more
I got something special
and I saved it for last
You know you can't resist it
Yeah I just couldn't pass
Chorus
