Half a Smidge Lyrics
by Calexico
In the interest of honesty, these chords have been provided by the Chordify
service. They *should* be correct. This song is an excellent example of Calexico's
lighter side. Enjoy it!
transcribe it here, but it makes the fairly simple chord progression more interesting.
When the evening sun is setting low
Blinding you on your drive home
And the lanes of traffic all converge
Causing you to curse every other word
For to wish it all away
(pause briefly, then slowly sweep downward with pick/one finger on C)
Daily grind's got your screw stripped
No can of double-ya-dee forty can fix your situation
Seems to be losing steam
Dream's been dropped on credit cards
And false hope pumping out of your soul
Like oil in the gulf it's a dead end
Drive it further deep into the ground
Till the point's dull as your skull
And the same sun that you curse
Powers your hybrid heart home
(more lightly now):
If only this car could move
Half a smidge
