This is a great, great song. One of those that you wish had another verse and
chorus but at the same time you love how short and sweet it is.
Just hit the base note of each chord for all the verses. On the Pre-chorus-type
parts start strumming and strum loudest for Chorus. Listen to the song for Strum pattern.
Intro: C
Verse:
all the tables nice and clean
evelyns asleep
on the grave yard shift again
selling gasoline
and theres kids smoking on south first
see high-school was just a blur, to her
and everything just found their place it seemed
Pre-Chorus:
theres an old folk song on the radio
sounding thin and dark and haunted
theres a bag of weed in the back beneath the books
and she cant stand the sight of this coldasac
like an old crow, king of the lamp-post
and this window hasnt been this clean since it last rained
Verse:
well she pictures up a different day
driving west to east L.A
and there aint no sign of a dime but hey
G (Start strumming)
anyone can dream anyone can dream
Chorus:
and all the college girls come in when the bars let out and theyre hungry
making such a mess, evelyn just talks trash, as shes sweeping up
Pre-chorus:
theres a thin dark cloud in the evening air
after every sunny day
theres a bum who lives in the parking lot
wash the windows just to say hey.
Just to say, hey. Ya
Chorus: Instrumental
Verse:
all the tables nice and clean
evelyns asleep
on the grave yard shift again
selling gasoline
selling gasoline
Hope you enjoy my first tab!
