Nine Stories by mewithoutYou
Tabbed by John Eccleston
Standard Tuning
C#m A C#m B
C#mHalf-mast land grants homesteading lawAs
Past Dodge Summit toward Athabasca FaC#mlls
Practicing our Avocets and Gnatcatcher Bcalls
C#mI laid down my guns where the soldierfish sAwam
And slept inside the shoe of the world's tallest C#mman
I saw Charlotte Corday with the Bknife in her hand. It was nothing new
C#mI've perched on Steele Dakota's sandhill cArane
I flew among the Paiute before the Mormon rC#main
I was in Virginia City for the stringing up of Clubfoot LBane
But I've never seen anything like you
EAll untAied, by and Bby!
BBut I'd pour the matrimony wine
EAll untAied, by and Bby!
BSo if you're ever so inclined E
EOh you're ever so inclined
EOh you're ever so inclined
C#mWhile low in a lodgepole branch nearAby
A lovesick Barnyard, an amorous eyeC#m
What unprecedented gift does this afternoon proBvide?
C#mWhat from the air now calls to water on the Aland?
What from my seclusion does this charlatan deC#mmand?
What to do now with my best-laid eremetic Bplans?
C#mI've been to the Arfaks where the Sicklebills Afly
Seen Tangier's acrobatics nine stories C#mhigh
I was there at Appomattox back in '65 when the General Barrived, but I've never been in
this room before!
EAll untAied, by and Bby!
BThat same old dream's trapped in my mind
EAll untAied, by and Bby!
BI'm bound in ropes and on the firing line
EAll untAied, by and Bby!
BWell I wake up disappointed every time E
Well I Bwake up disappointed every Etime
Well I Bwake up disappointed every Etime
Well I wake up Bdisappointed every timeE!
And I Bwake up disappointed every tiBmme!
BmIf the weather ever withers up your F#vine
Jacob knows a ladder you can Bmclimb
If that old thorn is still buried in your F#side
Jacob knows a ladder you can cBmlimb
Well if your pacific rivers all run F#dry
Their clouds will fill my loud corrupted Bmsky
And if the pleasures of your heavens ever F#end
That very ladder just as well descBmends
Bm F# repeat.
