Understanding Salesmen Lyrics
by EELS
Understanding Salesmen by the Eels, from the album Blinking Lights.

A tab is given for the introduction and the first line. Throughout the rest
of the song plucking and strumming go hand in hand. Just emphasize the
lower strings more so than the higher strings. The only part of this tab
that may sound somewhat askew is the D minor, however I attribute this to
the presence of strings in the original recording from Blinking Lights.
Tab:
A knock... door means
Hello Jesus calls
Full chords:
A knock on the door means
Hello jesus calls
A ring on the phone means
A trip to niagara falls
Daddy don't let me down this time
I'm all alone inside my mind
And it's no small thing
That i must prove to you
A late night card game
With the guys is alright
But i would rather
Take you for a test drive
Daddy don't let me down this time
I'm all alone inside my mind
And it's no small thing
That i must prove to you
While I look out on the passing fields
The sun through the bugs on the windshield
Makes me feel
Like I
Don't matter
Repeat the "knock on the door" first verse, finishing the song on G.
