Intro:
(Play the deadened strings with (tons of echo/reverb):
(Then play the next first three measures a few times until right
before the chorus, then play the last measure once or twice):
Verse 1 (dist guitar/bar chords whole song):
I'm fixing that drink in the morning, with the way things are
You may have stayed too lonnnnnng
You're splitting apart at the seams, from the heart's bitter call
You known him so lonnnn-nnnggg
Chorus 1:
If there's a god up in the air, someone looking over everyone
At least you got something to fall back onnnnnn
Verse 2:
Deep in the heart of the country was a house I built from love
A raven-headed lady, aaaallllll
Quiet and calm through the day, see the sunburn burn thru the hall
Approaching was a yellow...dog
Chorus 2:
If there's a god up in the air, someone looking over everyone
At least you got something to fall back onnnnnn
And what are people really for? Does anybody even care?
I betcha get a lot of compliments down there
Solo (partial):
G------------------| (play this note the whole time,
D------------------| mix it up some with bendies)
Chorus 3:
If there's a god up in the air, someone looking over everyone
At least you got something to fall back onnnnnn
Do ya got something to say? Is it something coming over you?
Or do you got more important things left to do?
End on: Gm
Cheers, and Buy "Infinite Arms" ON MAY 17, 2010!
