really , the only song i liked off of this album . i can understand passion
pit’s appeal , but it’s never been for me . this song is pretty great , though ,
and i’m surprised there isn’t already a tab for it . after playing around with
it for a while , i settled on a capo at the first fret using barre chords .
i’ll also include a slightly easier version with a capo on the third .
anyway , key of C minor for you soloists . here’s the chord shapes :
Bm – – – – – x24432
F#m – – – – 244222
G – – – – – – 355433 ( sounds better like this , but you could use 320003 )
D – – – – – – xx0232
A – – – – – – x02220
Em – – – – – 022000
i have a feeling that some of those minor chords are also sevenths , not that
it matters too much .
thus :
( intro )
G F#m G F#m
( vocal sample )
Bm F#m G D
Bm F#m G A
Bm F#m G
well you’re wrapped up in a blanket
G D
and you’re staring at the floor;
Bm F#m G
the conversation’s moderated
G A
by the noisy streets below .
Bm F#m G
i never wanna hurt you baby ,
G D
i’m just a mess with a name and a price ,
Bm F#m G
and now i’m drunker than before they ,
G A
they told me drinking doesn’t make me nice .
G F#m
you never know where some people will go ,
Em D
yeah some people been hurtin’ me .
G F#m
you can tell by look , by the slightest crook
Em A
in the neck or the blink of an eye .
G F#m
well then we’ll see what they say and we’ll do what they do ,
Em D
but that doesn’t mean a goddamn thing .
G F#m
you can listen if you want , you can listen if you don’t ,
Em A
yeah they’ll talk , yeah they’ll even sing .
G F#m Em F#m
everybody now , oh oh oh oh oh
G F#m
they come singing through the window , singing through the trees ,
Em F#m
yeah , they’re singing through the bright spring leaves .
G F#m Em F#m
everybody now , oh oh oh oh oh
G F#m
yeah they love you when they need you , but someday you’re gonna need to
Em F#m
find some other kind of place to go , oh .
now you’re standing in the kitchen ,
and you’re pouring out my drink .
well there’s a very obvious difference ,
and it’s that one of us can think .
if there’s a bump in the road yeah you fix it ,
but for me i’ll just run off the road .
but tonight you’ve got me cornered ,
and i haven’t got a place to go .
you never know where some people will go ,
yeah some people been hurtin’ me .
you can tell by look , by the slightest crook
in the neck or the blink of an eye .
well then we’ll see what they say and we’ll do what they do ,
but that doesn’t mean a goddamn thing .
you can listen if you want , you can listen if you don’t
yeah they’ll talk , yeah they’ll even sing .
everybody now , oh oh oh oh oh
they come singing through the window , singing through the trees
yeah they’re singing through the bright spring leaves .
everybody now , oh oh oh oh oh ( sing it loud , sing it loud )
yeah they love you when they need you , but someday you’re gonna need to
find some other kind of place to go , don’t you know .
oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh
– – – – – – – – – – – – –
alternatively
– – – – – – – – – – – – –
you could capo at the third fret and use the following chord shapes ( original
shapes in parentheses ) , but i don’t think it sounds as good :
Am ( Bm ) – – – – x02210
Em ( F#m ) – – – 022000
F ( G ) – – – – – – 133211
C ( D ) – – – – – – x32010
G ( A ) – – – – – – 320003
Dm ( Em ) – – – – xx0231
