Ants Marching Lyrics

Dave Mathews Band - Ants Marching
Notes*
-Tacet = a musical term simply meaning MUTE
-The outro is only how my band leaves the song
and how i leave it when im playing alone in
front of others. The Rythem is hard to
explain for it E-mail me at MusicEAD@aol.com
if you would like me to explain it more elaboratley
-Phrase 2 is played through all verses and interludes
-The Chorus is a bit messed up (i felt lazy this took
long enough) but i put which beats each chords should
be on.
-If anyone has ANY recomendations for the bridge
please E-mail me MusicEAD@aol.com and i will
edit it thank you.
-For the intro the D and Dsus4 chords may also
be played like so (again this is how i play them)

Intro:
Phrase 1
Phrase 2 (for verses too)
Verse 1:
He wakes up in the morning
Does his teeth, bite to eat and he's rolling.
He never changes a thing
The week ends, the week begins. She thinks,
We look at each other
Wondering what the other is thinking
But we never say a thing
And these crimes between us grow deeper.
Solo 1:
Chorus 1:
Take these chances
Place them in me that sounds like a
quieter time
Lights down you up and die
Interlude:
Verse 2:
Goes to visit his mommy
She feeds him well, has con-cerns he forgets them
And remembers be-ing small
Playing under the table and dreaming
Chorus:
Take these chan-ces
Place them in me that sounds like a
quieter time
Lights down you up and die
Interlude/Solo (Verse Progression) X4
Verse 3:
Driving in on this highway
All these cars end up on the sidewalk
D (tacet) G
People in every direc-tion
D (tacet) G (tacet)
No words exchanged, no time to exchange them
Bridge:
When all the little ants are marching
Red and black antennas waving
They all do it the same
They all do it the same way
Interlude:
Verse 4:
Candyman tempting the thoughts of a
Sweet tooth, torturing the weight loss
Program cutting the corners
of a loose end, loose end, cut cut
On the fence, not to of-fend cut cut, cut cut
Chorus:
Take these chan-ces
Place them in me that sounds like a
quieter time
Lights down you up and die
Outro (self-made): (Switch Chord Progression Order On Purpose)
Lights down you up and die
