This is actually a fairly easy song to play once you’ve figured out where to put your capo - 4th fret.
I can’t sing in the register that Karen does, but at least using the capo I can transpose it to some key
that I can handle. Below are the chord forms as if the song were played without a capo – but to be able
to play it just as OTR does – capo at the 4th fret.
CWhat a G/Dbeautiful piece of hearAmtache G/D

(Same pattern for the next verse and chorus)
Nothing like sleeping on a bed of nails
Nothing much here but our broken dream
Oh, but baby, if all else fails
Nothing is ever quite what it seems
And I'm dying inside to leave you
With more than just clichés
There is a me you would not recognize, dear
Call it the shadow of myself
And if the music starts before I get there
Dance without me, you dance so gracefully
I really think I'll be okay
They've taken their toll, these latter days
CTell them it's reGal
AmTell them it's Freally real
