Jars of Clay Hand 'If I Left the Zoo' Written by Jars of Clay, tabbed by David Schroder Notes about song: The second single from 'If I Left the Zoo' is a loaded song musically, with at least two acoustic guitars, at least two electric guitars, along with a prominent organ and various types of percussion. If you listen closely to the acoustic guitar, there are two of them playing at different times; the first is played consistently throughout the song, and is played without a capo. The second, used only for the intro, choruses, and bridge, is capoed on the fifth fret. I have included chords for both, with the capoed chords at the bottom. GUITAR ONE: Acoustic with no capo GUITAR TWO: Acoustic with capo on 5 INTRO (guitars one and two, electric intro riff) D Bm C2 Em7 (2x) VERSE ONE (guitar one only)

I'm here wai^Dting For s^Bmomething new to break my h^C2eart ^G So callous-la^Dden, ^BmI can't feel a thing at ^C2all ^GWill you c^C2atch my f^Dall'

CHORUS (guitars one and two, electric chorus riff)

^D>From lost and n^Bmot found to run and n^C2ot hide My hand ^Em7inside your hand ^DLosing my g^Bmrip Falling so ^C2far My hand in^Em7side

VERSE TWO (just guitar one, electric pre-chorus riff)

Fear is keep^Ding time with the be^Bmating of my ^C2hear^Gt I'm doing way to much th^Dinking And it's t^Bmearing me a^C2part And I fe^Gel You reach for^C2 me

CHORUS (Guitars one and two, electric chorus riff) VOCAL BRIDGE (Guitars one and two)

^Em7I hear your voice and f^Gollow (fills me with ^Em7joy) So hard to belie^Gve and s^C2till I g^Do

INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE (Guitars one and two, electric bridge riff) D Bm C2 Em D E C2 Bb C2 CHORUS 2x (Guitars one and two, electric chorus riff for chorus #1, final chorus riff for chorus 2) CHORDS: Guitar one (the high e-string is muted most of the time--listen to it really closely on the verses--but it sounds okay with standard chords) D x00232 Bm 224432 C2 x32033 Em7 022033 G 320033 E 022100 Bb 113331 Guitar two (first is the guitar one chord, then the chord after capo, then the tab with fret 5=0 cause of the capo) D A 002220 Bm F#m 244220 (hit the low e-string w/ thumb if possible) C2 G 320033 Em7 Bm 224332 G D x00232 E B 224442 Bb F 132211 ELECTRIC PARTS: Steve plays stuff throughout most of the song with the exception of the verses where it's solo acoustic guitar and the vocal bridge. There is one main theme used throughout the whole song in d4ifferent fashions, and to be complete I included all the variations of that theme. There is also a very faint riff in the background of the chorus that changes slightly each time.
