From: kight@suntan.ec.usf.edu. (Darryl Kight (CH)) Subject: TAB: "Round Here" - Counting Crows Here is what I've come up with for "Round Here" by Counting Crows. I think it is right, but after downloading Mr. Jones form nevada and seeing what I had left out, I'm not so sure, but here it is anyway for your approval and revision: E|--------------------------| A|--------------------------| D|--------------------------| G|--------------------------| B|-3-------3--------3-------| E|---5--3----5--3-----3-----| repeat 4x for intro and throughout verses Verse: Step out the front door like a ghost into the fog where no one notices the contrast of white on white. And in between the moon and you the angels get a better view of the crumbling difference between wrong and right. I walk in the air between the rain through myself and back again Where' I don't know Maria says she's dying through the door I hear her crying Why' I don't know Chorus:

Round ^Chere we^D always stand up st^Emraight ^G Round ^Chere ^Dsomething radi^Emates ^G

Verse: Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand she said she'd like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis she walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land just like she's walking on a wire in the circus she parks her car outside of my house takes her clothes off says she's close to understanding Jesus she knows she's just a little misunderstood she has trouble acting normal when she's nervous Chorus:

Round ^Chere we're ^Dcarving out our n^Emames ^G Round ^Chere ^Dwe all look the s^Emame ^G Round ^Chere we talk just like l^Dions But we s^Emacrifice like l^Gambs Roun^Cd here she's s^Dlipping through my ^Emhands ^G

Bridge: (Please fill in the blanks) Sleeping children got to run like the wind out of the lightning dream Mama's little baby better get herself in out of the lightning Verse: She says It's only in my head She says Shhh I know it's only in my head But the girl in car in the parking lot says "Man you should try to take a shot can't you see my walls are crumbling'" Then she looks up at the building and says she's thinking of jumping She says she's tired of life she must be tired of something Chorus:

Round ^Chere she's a^Dlways on my m^Emind ^G Round ^Chere hey man ^Dgot lots of ^Emtime ^G Round ^Chere we're never sent to bed ^Dearly And ^Emnobody makes us w^Gait Round ^Chere we stay up ^Dvery, very, ^Emvery, very ^Glate
