Capo: 2
AHEAD OF THE CURVE - Monsters of Folk Song: Ahead Of The Curve Artist: Monsters of Folk Tabbed by: UsingThisName Capo on the 2nd fret This is a simple song to play. The rhythm and timing are very intuitive, and can be easily figured out by listening to the song. The verses and choruses are played the same way every time. I fully laid out the first verse as an example, and for the second verse I only included the chords to give a succinct visual. I apologies if I overcomplicated anything. Enjoy! Chords used: G, Em, C, D, Am INTRO (this is also the pattern repeated throughout the verses) G Em G Em e|---3--0------3--0-----------| B|---0--0------0--0-----------| G|---0--0------0--0-----------| D|---0--2-4----0--2-4p2p0-----| A|---2--2------2--2-----------| E|-3-3--0----3-3--0-----------| VERSE G Em e|---3------0----| B|---0------0----| G|---0------0----| D|---0------2-4--| A|---2------2----| E|-3-3------0----| Another perfect day G Em e|---3-------0-----------| B|---0-------0-----------| G|---0-------0-----------| D|---0-------2-4p2p0-----| A|---2-------2-----------| E|-3-3-------0-----------| they keep piling up G Em e|---3------0----| B|---0------0----| G|---0------0----| D|---0------2-4--| A|---2------2----| E|-3-3------0----| C D I got happiness that I can't maintain so beginner's luck

VERSE Now the sky is pink rooftop swimmin' pool. I'm not care free, no I'm free to care I just never do. All the bags are checked and the reasons why. Yesterday lingers on that's the peace you can keep when you say goodbye. CHORUS You can get what you want now knock it out of the park. Bury it by the river Easy, there's a search party but it's gettin' dark. I won't hold you to nothin' I wanna make that plane. Probably end up a stranger, crazy buy I'm still hoping there's another way and a place to stay BRIDGE
EmWhat a scDene has Cgot you sGentimental Cwhen the night comes, Amwhen the night comes Dloose. EmAll the thinDgs you've putC up on tGhe mantle Cwhat a shame. AmWhat a shame. DIt's old news
CHORUS I'm stayin' above the flat line I'm ahead of the curve. Take a piece of the sunshine with me on an all night drive to another world You can get what you want now knock it out of the park. Probably end up a drifter, lonely but I'm still hoping for a change of heart and a place to start.
