Formalities

        The Spill Canvas started in 2002 in Sioux Falls, South Dakota as a side project for lead singer, Nick Thomas, who at the time, was guitarist and backup vocalist for metalcore outfit Nodes Of Ranvier. As time passed, Thomas resigned from Nodes and went full-time with The Spill Canvas. While growing up in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, Thomas recorded his first songs at age 15, funded by his father who strongly encouraged his son's evident musical talent.

I have only written the root chords used. The actual
song has plenty of Suspended and Extended chords added
but this should be a good start for anyone wanting to
tab a more in depth version.


Intro
E G#m C#m  A  B x2

            E                   G#m          C#m
How does it feel to know you're everything I need
    A 
The butterflies in my stomach 
           B
They could bring me to my knees 
            E                   G#m           C#m
How does it feel to know you're everything I want
           A 
I've got a hard time saying this 
        B
So I'll sing it in a song 

     C#m               E         A     
Oh I adore the way you carry yourself 
         C#m                 E          A
With the grace of a thousand angels overhead
           C#m         E            A 
I love the way the galaxy starts to melt 
     C#m       E
When we become one
     B         A   
When we become one
     C#m       E 
When we become one
     B         A      B
When we become one 
            E
How does it feel

G#m C#m   A    B
E G#m C#m A    B

            E                G#m           C#m
How does it feel when we get locked into a stare?
       A 
Please don't come looking for me 
           B
When I get lost in the mess of your hair 
           E              G#m          C#m
How do you feel when everything you've known Gets thrown aside 
      A
Never fear, my dear, 
               B
'cause we have nothing left to hide 

     C#m               E         A
Oh I adore the way you carry yourself
         C#m                 E          A 
With the grace of a thousand angels overhead
           C#m            E         A 
I love the way the galaxy starts to melt 

E          C#m
Hold on to me girl
       B 
If you feel your grip getting loose
     C#m       E         A             E
Just know that I'm right next to you 
           C#m
Hold on to me girl
       B 
If you feel your grip getting loose 
     C#m       E       A           B
Just know that I won't let you down 
 
C#m         A
Well, I'm ready
C#m         A 
Well, I'm ready
C#m    A 
I am ready
       B 
To run away with you
C#m       A 
Are you ready?
C#m       A 
Are you ready?
C#m       A 
Are you ready?
       B 
To run away with me 

A                               B
Pack your things we can leave today
A                               B 
Pack your things we can leave today
A                               B
Say our goodbyes and get on the train
A               B 
Say goodbye 
C#m                   A
Just you and I in the sweet unknown
C#m                   A         B 
We can just call each other our home
C#m          A 
If I had to choose
C#m      A                B
a way to die it'd be with you 
 
     E           C#m      B
In a goosebump infested embrace
        A                 B
With my overanxious hands cupping your face
     E           C#m      B 
In a goosebump infested embrace
        A                 B
With my overanxious hands cupping your cherub face 
            E
How does it feel?

It leads to these explosives that I'm about to use

This bomb is the answer to all my pain

If there's one thing I've learned
             C                                C/B
It's that we never feel the heat until we get burned
       Am                   F     
But we tried so hard not to die
              C  
Sometimes we forget to appreciate life

Oh no

I'll become the mist you breathe into your lungs

All of my love will then turn into yours

And you will feel hope bleeding out from your pores

It's that we never feel the heat until we get burned

Mom i wish you would try a little harder

The Truth

Em                        
And there's three, count 'em 
D      C
three, children playing on the 
Em                                              
beach. They were eager to learn, 
      D              C
To be taught, and to teach 
Em
There's Veronica. She's biting her lip as she 
D                      C
watches the waves turn white at the tip. 
            Em
And there's Vada, radiating with joy, 
     D                                             C
and, luckily, she still can't stand the sight of a boy. 
                     Em
And, lastly, there's Dade. His hair dances in the wind 
         D              C
And he's wondering what love is 
    Em         D  C
And why it has to end. 



       D                  
And he can't understand 
    C
How everyone goes on 
G                        C
breathing when true love ends. 
    B                           
His mother whispers quietly, 
Em
"Heaven's not a place that you go when you die. 
          C
It's that moment in life when 
    G             C
you actually feel alive. 
   B                      
So live for the moment 
    Em                                        
And take this advice, live by every word, 
C
Love is just a hoax, so 
G                             C    
forget anything that you have heard 
    B                        
And live for the moment now." 



            Em                        
And there's three, count 'em 
D      C
three, children growing on the 
Em                                              
beach. They were eager to learn, 
      D              C
To be taught, and to teach. 
        Em
There's Veronica. She's licking her lips 
       D                         C
As she waits for her real, first passionate kiss. 
            Em
And there's Vada. She can't admit her jealousy 
       D                                             C
Of her sister, Veronica, and how she's so pretty (and how she's so pretty). 
                     Em
And, lastly, there's Dade. Still sitting on the dock,
D                        C
Ponders his life, and he skips his rocks. 
       Em         
And he wonders when his father will return, 
         D          C
But he's not coming back. 



       D                  
And he can't understand 
    C
How everyone goes on 
G                        C
breathing when true love ends. 
    B                           
His mother whispers quietly,

"Heaven's not a place that you go when you die.

And live for the moment now." 



            Em                        
And there's three, count 'em 
D      C
three, children missing from the 
Em                                              
beach. They were eager to learn, 
      D              C
To be taught, and to teach 
        Em
But the sad thing Is that they never lived passed the 
       D              C                      
age of fifteen Due to    neglect 
           Em
from their mother  Who was bed ridden by 
       D            C                    
her ex-lover, their father 
    Em                                   
She didn't even notice, or pay much attention 
       D                                         C
As the tide came in and swept her three into the ocean 
    Em              
Now all her advice, 
   D     C
It seems   useless 



Em
No, Heaven's not a place that you go when you die. 
          C
It's that moment in life when 
    G                   C
you touch your edge and you feel alive. 
   B                      
So live for the moment 
    Em                                        
And take this advice, live by every word 
C
Love completely real, so 
G                             C    
Forget anything that you have heard 
    B                        
And live for the moment now.

All Over You (acoustic)

Cm                       G#
  If your feet hurt from walking too much,
     Cm                  A#
then I will tend to them,  with a velvet touch
Cm                               G#
  If your lungs just don't want to work today,

then I'll perform you mouth to mouth  until your okay


Chorus:

circling your lips

If your muscles are wound up and tight
then I will loosen up the knots until it feels right.
If your ears just ache from listening,
then I'll suply the remedy in the melodies I sing


Chorus x2

Connect The Dots

C                G          F           F
Be kind when you rewind the story of the two of us
C                G          F           F
Sometimes you wish it was a little more mysterious
C                G          F           F
When you look at me with your cinematic eyes
C                G          F           F
I wanna play the part but I forget the lines

C    G      F       F
            I do it all the time
C    G      F       F
            I never get it right

C                G           F            F
One day when you replay the slide-show we know
C                G           F            F
Pictures won't show villains and heroes
C                G           F        
It's just me keeping time with you
C                G           F          F
Butter knife's dull but it still cuts through

Am
We never were
F
We'll never be

C
Strangers kissing in the pouring rain
G
Chasing after your leaving train
Am          F
But we know that's not how our song goes
Ohh
C
You're a waitress in a cocktail bar
G
And I'll save you cause I'm a big rock star
Am          F
But we know that's not how our song goes
C   G    F    F
It goes like this

C                G           F          F
You didn't like my friends and your mom didn't trust me
C                G           F          F
I thought I was slick but my moves were rusty
C                G           F        F
Bought you a 12-pack promised you sushi
C                G           F        F
Sorry if I wasn't straight out of a movie

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café 

      E            B    G#m
La la la la la la la la Yeah, 
     F#                      E       B   F#
I'm going where the people know my name

I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.
