Elliott Smith Twilight Lyrics

#
#No tab in here has the solo, so i'll tab that out. Being a tab reader, i hate having to
#between tabs, so ill put the rest in here too.
#
#Standard Tuning (I play it tuned a step down because it works better with my voice)
#
#On the D chord, i put the a string in parenthesis.
#Because its hard to mute out, and it sounds
#perfectly fine, you can play it if you want.
#Technically you aren't supposed to, but it
#the same.
#
#F7/C (x33210)
#Am (x02210)
#G (320003)
Haven't laughed this hard in a long time,
Better stop now, before I start crying.
Go off to sleep in the sunshine
Don't want to see the day when it's dying.
She's a sight to see
She's (a) good to me
But I'm already somebody's baby.
She's a pretty thing,
She knows everything
But I'm already somebody's baby.
You don't deserve to be lonely,
But those drugs you got won't make you feel better.
Pretty soon you'll find its the only
Little part of your life you're keeping together.
I'm nice to you,
I could make it through
But you're already somebody's baby.
I could make you smile,
If you stayed a while
But how long will you stay with me, baby?
SOLO (see below)
Because your candle burns too bright
Well I almost forgot it was twilight.
Even if I think that you are right
Well I'm tired of being down,
I got no fight.
You're wonderful
When its beautiful
But I'm already somebody's baby.
If I went with you,
I'd dissapoint you too
But I'm already somebody's baby. (RIFF 1)
Already somebody's baby.
(RIFF 2)

SOLO:
It goes something like this. I've seen live videos where he sings the melody, but i like
better.
B 1-2p0---2--0-1--|1-2p0---2--0-1--|--2p0---2--0-3--|--2p0---2--0-1--|
G 2-----1------2--|2-----1------2--|------1------0--|------1------0--|Repeat
A --2p0---2--0-3--|--2p0---2--0-1--|--2p0---2--0-3--|--2p0---2--0-1--|
D ------3------2--|------1------2--|------1------0--|------1------0--|Repeat
And this is 100% how you play it. You can have some liberty with the notes in the solo.
apologize if the chords are off of the words,
I have a few syllables I do different than elliott
does in his recording, i don't know why.
