My Enemy Tabulatur von Cory Kahane

VERSE 1
  C                                 F
You sat up like someone broke the bedside window
             C            F
We crept down to the kitchen holding our breath
         Edim7                        F
We scrubbed the stove in silence. I couldn’t tell the 
  Dadd11
difference.
           F                  C                 Dm 
But you looked like you had seen the face of Death

Am Dm

CHORUS 1
    A#                   Fadd9
I tried in vain to comprehend
       A#                C           Fadd9          Dm
How could you call this home? Keep choosing to pretend?
         A#            C       Edim7                 F
The love she made conditional should have been for free
            A#             C (hold)      F
That’s why she will always be my enemy

VERSE 2
  C                               F
I joined you in the bathtub. My shirt was getting soaked.
           C                              F
Like some sad, romantic gesture from a book
      Edim7                               F
And as I squeezed you, I could feel the anger
Dadd11
on your arms
      F                C                    Dm 
I kissed your neck so I wouldn’t have to look

Am Dm

CHORUS 2
    A#                  Fadd9
I tried in vain to fathom why
      A#               C             Fadd9
You called her yet again when every time 
                Dm
she makes you cry
 A#               C                Edim7           F
Somehow sharing good news became a pyrrhic victory
       A#                  C (hold)     F
That’s why she will always be my enemy

F F F

BRIDGE
 Edim7                                Dm
I think about the day she’s finally gone
          C                  Fadd9
Will it mean you missed your chance 
            Dm              Dm
or you can finally move on?
A#                C               Fadd9
All I know is by now it’s safe to say
             Dm (hold)    C                Dm
For all she gave, there’s more she took away

Dm Dm Dm

Edim7   F    Dadd11
F   C   Dm    Am Dm

CHORUS 3
    A#                    Fadd9
I tried in vain to keep my cool
       A#                C        Fadd9             Dm
But I can’t sit by and watch you accept her being cruel
            A#         C            Edim7           F
She’s the origin of everything that ended you and me
            A#             C
That’s why she will always be
         A#              C
You know she will always be 
         A#             C (hold)    F
I swear she will always be my enemy

F F F (hard stop)
