this is just a fix to the tab by mitch peters, got most of it right but i think a
couple of the chords are wrong. most cred goes to him.
awesome song, amazing band!
Intro: E
EWell I bit on my lip, and I kicked at my toes
ENo, I don't need your lecture cause your lecture won't show
That you tC#mold me so I Atold you sEo
EBut I would have managed, I would have been fine
EI'd do it myself and I'd do it just my way,
I'm C#ma big man forA thinking just Eso.
ABut somebody told me that your mother was born E
AOh a wandering woman with a spirit so sworn Eof the riverside
AAnd it never surprised me bBut it meantC#m that my love was immAobilized
Well, iBt meant that my lovC#me was immobilizeAd
Cause whDen it comes, iAt comes when it does. E
EBut you came in the middle and you fell in my hands
EOh a, wonderful woman and an average man.
See that maC#mkes me the luAcky man E
EI won't be deserving, but I won't be denied
ESee, I fell in this position, I will still teach my kids pride
Because faiC#mlure's a parAt of it aEll
And if failC#mure don't hurt theAn failure don't work aEt all
ABut somebody told me, our nephew was born E
AOh, a beautiful baby, so smart and so sure ofE his little self
AAnd in a wonderful way he was maBking me feC#mel so smalAl
Was maBking me feeC#ml so smaAll,
Was makBing me feC#mel so smalAl.
And ID don't think I've Afelt this Ebefore.
In C#mall the reAasons to Ecome, well theyC#m override my body and, A
I point to theE sun, cause where it's C#mwarm is where the wilderAness grows E
And it grows, and it grows 'tillC#m it all becomes nothing
And nothiAng is left as you knowE.
(We C#mwalked it for a thouAsand years, with broken eEyes and salted ears
ComplC#maining 'bout the weatheAr like we ever had a chEoice.
Through all C#mthe noise and Aself abuse, you wEaited for your fill of truth
Oh I'mC#m terrified I'll achievAe nothing aEt all.)
outro: C#m, A, E x2
I tried to put all the chords directly above the lyrics where it changes, but when
you submit it like double spaces everything so some might not be exact. sox boz.
sounds pretty 100% to me. thanks to mitch peters again for putting in the hard yards!
