Elliott Smith - Oh Well Okay

the chords below are written for a guitar with no capo , in standard tuning .

i’m led to believe elliott tuned down his guitar a whole step , and placed a capo
on the first fret . in that case , you’d be playing the chords a half – step up : A# would be B , etc .

i recommend checking the chord diagrams .

A# Dm/A D#/G A# Dm/A
here’s the silhouette , the face always turned away
Gm/A# Gm/E D# A# Dm/A
the bleeding colour gone to black , dying like a day

G# D# C# Cm
shook your head to say no no no
D#/A# G#
and stopped for a spell
D#/G F7
and stayed that way

A# Dm/A D#/G A# Dm/A
i got pictures , i just don’t see it anymore
Gm/A# Gm/E D# A# Dm/A
climbing hour upon hour through a total bore
G7 Cm D#/A# G#
with the one i keep , where it never fades
G# D# C# Cm
in the safety of a pitch – black mind
D#/A# G#
an airless cell
D#/G F7
that blocks the day
G7 Fm
oh well , okay
