Smith Hill Lyrics
by Deer Tick
*Capo on 2
+So I just started getting into Deer Tick, and to my dismay I
only ran across some very mediocre tabs. Hope this one
helps somebody out, it's a fantastic song! Although there are
two guitars when they play it, both live and on the record, I
tabbed it so that one person could possibly play it and this is
the way that I've played it live. Sounded awesome, so here ya guys go.
Enjoy!
Intro:
0-2-4 walk-up on A string
Verse 1:
Elbows on the window sill
My head against the pane
You've seen so many grow and die
But you forgot most of their names
0-2-4 walk-up on A string
Verse 2:
So I fire that arrow into the great big sky
And I hope that it never comes down
Unless you're coming with it
It's better with you around
Verse 3:
I could drink myself to death tonight
Or I could stand and give a toast
To those who made it out alive
It's you I'll miss the most
Verse 4:
But tonight I'll see my sweetheart
I've got a fifty dollar bill
But somewhere in her weak heart
She knows I never will
Chorus (distortion):
Oh love, it's hard to hide it
True love, it's hard to find it
Though I was once beside it
I've fallen far behind it
Verse 5:
from a tiny room up on Smith Hill
A (clean)
It's easy to disappear
It's easier to run off hiding
Then say "I don't want you here"
Verse 6:
I can't stand to face the facts
It'd only leave you hurt
I don't care much for what you have to say
But I'd like to know what you heard
Chorus (distortion:
Oh love, it's hard to hide it
True love, it's hard to find it
Though I was once beside it
I've fallen far behind it
Bridge:
It's a long way free
You can't tread on me
And in the morning when you're crying
You'll see
