FORGET ME
by owen (the promise ring cover)
from his album "other people's songs"
tabbed by drew (iamdrew@gmail.com)
despite loving the original version by the promise ring, i have a soft spot
for mike kinsella's version. it's a bit more folksy and laid back.
i had trouble pinpointing the second chord in the chorus, but what i've got
below fits most of the time, particularly when it's arpeggiated.
hope you enjoy playing this as much as i do.

[Verse]
all trees are Coaks
all birds are C/Bblue
in the mountains of a Fmaj7magnet
are the mountains of Cyou
i'm proud of my genius just like a C/Bpainter
and dumb like a poet i think i Fmaj7can
i think i can
just Csay C/Bit from the Cthroats
from the throats of our C/Bwrists
with full sets of Fmaj7teeth
vanilla almond teeth, vanilla almond Ctea
spent afterC/Bnoons, spent afterFmaj7noons
measuring Ctime in C/Bspoons
[Chorus]

Ci'm a lantern, my head a moon
i married a Fmaj7room F/E
C i married a room C C/B
[Verse]
C all trees are C/Boaks
and all birds are Fmaj7blue, i do
C what's 80 miles in canada
C/B or 18 years in mountain time?
Fmaj7 a southern run for a Clate longing to C/Bdrink
C where all trees are C/Boaks and
all birds are Fmaj7blue, i do
C all trees are C/Boaks
all birds are Fmaj7blue
i do, i thought Ceveryone was C/Byou
[Chorus]
