Bad Self Portraits Lyrics
The E and B sound better as barre chords on the 7th fret.
Capo: None
Chords used: E (x79997)
D# (x68886)
When you see the * play this riff:
D--6b7b6-4-4s6v
Intro: E B E B G#m F# &
Then this little riff on the D string (denoted by &). (Also at the end of every 4
bars except when playing *). Note: This varies throughout the song, feel free to
improvise.
D--6h7p6--
I bought this camera
to take pictures of my love
Now that he's gone
I don't have anybody to take pictures of
Along some highway
is pretty good subjects
G#m F# *
I'm gonna make myself make use of this thing
(Not really necessary, but can play 5h6 on G string together with backup vocals
for the part with no guitar)
I'm taking landscapes
I'm taking still lifes
I'm taking bad self portraits
of a lonely woman
E B E B G#m F# *
I've spent my life
so lost on lovin'
G#m F# &
I could have been a painter or a president
But after twenty-five years
I should be good at something
G#m F# &
Gone are the days of me being so innocent
I'm taking night classes
I'm making sculptures
I'm painting bad self portraits
of a lonely woman
E B E B G#m F# &
E B E B G#m F# *
I bought this camera
to take pictures of my love
Now that he's gone
I don't know what to do with this thing, well
I don't care about the time or money
E D#m (mute)
I just never thought that I'd be
through with this love
Stuck taking landscapes
Stuck making still lifes
Stuck making sculptures
I'm out here taking bad self portraits
of a lonely woman
Bad self portraits of a lonely girl
Sad self portraits of a lonely woman
E B E B G#m F# x 2
