"Texas Is Forever" tabs by Pierce The Veil based on the acoustic guitar cover by Pierce The Vegan on YouTube.
My acoustic playing sounds just like the records, mind you. Check it out for yourself if you're interested. 🙂

I'm also a male tenor and I sound just like Vic Fuentes and Kellin Quinn.
Sections of this tablature will house various accommodations, one of them being separate tab charts on ways to
play certain parts of the song differently and more accurately.

[Pre-Chorus 3]
(I had to condense this part - just strum a simple, continuous down-up pattern for every chord.)
(Right below this is a separate "3RD PRE-CHORUS" tab containing more accuracy and difficulty.)

LYRICS UP IN THIS PIECE:
[Intro]
(Here we are)
[Verse 1]
Can you tell that story? It's my favorite one,
You fucking disappointment, I can't entertain you anymore.
These stupid states of mind,
Everyone punishing me all the time.
Why?
[Pre-Chorus]
But don't cross your boundaries and think that it's cool,
Misguided by darkness and lost on the road.
But I'm such a sucker for the rain!
[Chorus]
Here we are,
Crashing once again!
Into the center of your moonlit face, our caved-in ribs.
Your tears they fall on my tongue, and our lips are letting go,
As we laid on the side of the road.
Go!
[Verse 2]
Pull the trigger tight and watch our distances explode,
If Texas is forever, where's your home sweet home?
If anything should happen to me I want you to know,
I've loved you since ever since then.
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't dance around me I know what it means,
No communication, cannot be received.
But I'm such a sucker for the rain!
[Chorus]
Here we are,
Crashing once again!
Into the center of your moonlit face, our caved-in ribs.
Your tears they fall on my tongue, and our lips are letting go,
As we laid on the side of the road.
[Bridge]
Don't chase your nightmares!
[Outro]
Here we are...
Crashing once again!
Into the center of your moonlit face, our caved in ribs.
Your tears they fall our lips are locked in lemon groves,
And I can never let, never let them grow them grow.
On the side of the road.
So take a deep breath and chase it with mine,
Your southern hospitality won't mind!
