The Weakerthans - Maryland Bridge Tabbed by: CBAOTH E-mail: cbaoth@gmx.net Tuning: Standard I just took the basic chords from the existing contributions and made some quick corrections / additions and added the full lyrics. I just listened to it a few times so it may still not be 100% perfect / open for some additional interpretation, but the basic structure should be correct. Chords (used by me): Asus2 (optional transition, last stroke when playing A)

[Intro] Bm - G - E - A Bm - G - E - A [Verse]

I^Bm woke you up at^G four this morning ^E To whimper and to^A whine ^Bm To hear myself through^G spit and crackle of ^E A poor long distance^A line

^Bm Twelve clever ways to^G say I love you ^E With words that always^A fail ^Bm Hang up and light a^G cigarette, sit ^E Waiting for the^A mail

^Bm Some flyers from d^Gepartment stores, a- ^E Another get rich^A plan ^Bm A bill or two, some^G shampoo and a ^E Note from Ed M^AcMann

^Bm Although you'll always^G be the one in ^E Which I will co^Anfide ^Bm Sometimes you're the^G razor on my ^E Private water^A slide

[Chorus]

^D By the^A way, I got your^Bm letter yeste^Grday It said there's^D no^A need to be^Bm sad ^D It said that^A some things would^Bm never ever^G change But that^E some^Bm already h^Aad ^D And I'd^A heard it from the^Bm corner of my^G ear how that ^D Voice^A makes things^Bm right ^D And I'm^A sure there's something^Bm more than mem^Gory Across the^E Maryland^A bridge to^Dnight

[Bridge] Bm - G - E - A Bm - G - E - A [Verse]

^Bm How ominous these^G undercurrents ^E They crowd me now it^A seems ^Bm And every time I^G meet you in the ^E Darkness of m^Ay dreams

^Bm It's likely that I'll^G turn around and ^E Parody m^Ayself ^Bm Imagine we're in^G different places ^E Pretend we're someone^A else

^Bm I can be J.^G Edgar Hoover ^E You be J^AFK ^Bm As power hungry^G egocentrics ^E We'll paper fight the^A nights away

^Bm Sometimes you're my^G nemesis ^E When I am par^Aanoid ^Bm Sometimes I have^G doubts and worries ^E Too strong to^A avoid

[Chorus]
