Pressed in a Book, my favorite song from "Oh Inverted World"
Intro: A (strum faster after 4 beats) then E
ADirted all my sEeeds, planted in rGows
Dthe untied shoelaces of Ayour life
Nurtured all Eyear then pressed in a book
G(') D A
Or dispayed with bad taste at the table
ProblemsE arise and you fan the Gfire
While there's a Dwild pack of dogs loose in
Ayour house tonight. Cut from Ebad cloth
Or soiled like Gsocks. Add it up and Dbasically people never
AmChange. They just talk and make Emplans in the dark
Or makeAm haste with ideas they can't Ghelp but creep good peopleEm out
As you talk Amto me too much youreG assuming we dont alwaysEm want what isA right.
(play intro)
A....
Did I strike the right set of chords' Youre annoyed
the goal is to ignite you and move on.
You feel ill at ease, youve got no squeeze
and the wise cracks wont make you more stable
You've learned your lines to scale and to time
Why must i remind you that im only less able
Cut from bad cloth, or soiled like socks
We're ordinary people we cant help but to change
As we walk and make plans in the dark
And make haste with the boy who cant help to creep good people out.
As you talk to me too much youre assuming we dont always want what is right.
ATwo fallenE saplings in an open Gfield
Snow paddingD gently on an empty Ebench
AAn old woman's Ejewelry lying unadoGrned
Cold nesting Drobins allied for the Afirst time
I know when you Ehear these sappy liDnes
You'll roll yourE eyes and say "nicGe try".
I hope it works! Enjoy! or Difruta!
