Van Halen Feelin' Lyrics

Van Halen (Balance)
I grabbed the tab for this off of ftp.nevada.edu and thought it was
close but not quite right. So here's my rendition. I basically
just edited the version that was transcribed by Bob Brockman
(brockman@udavxb.oca.udayton.edu). Corrections, comments,
suggestions, flames, etc. welcome.
Part 1:
Part 2:
Part 3: (similar to Part 1):
Part 4: Same as Part 1
outta touch most the time
gotta lotta things on my mind
kickin' down, where to start
Part 5:
it's the hardest thing oh....
Part 6: Same as Part 3
grow it long, shave it off
life is hard, never soft
i need a change, i need it quick
before it makes me sick
Part 7:
that's what's on my mind
Repeat parts 4 through 6:
pay attention, watch your back
pay your dues, stay on track
got no room to second-guess
puts me under stress oh....
if i were you, you were me
i wonder who i'd wanna be
with just one wish you can't refuse
i wouldn't know what to choose
Part 8:
(not exactly sure about this chord)
Chorus: I just play these as bar chords, though I'm sure Eddie does
something fancier
feelin'...no, i don't like what i've been told i'm feelin'
feelin' what no one else will ever know i'm feelin' oh....
Variation on Part 4:
now black is white and white is black
got politicians smokin' crack
and john paul's all bullet-proofed
Repeat Part 5:
it puts me through the roof yea....
Variation on Part 6:
i were you and you were me
i wonder who i'd rather be
if i had one wish i'd take it
Chorus:
feelin'...oh, i don't like what i've been told i'm feelin'
and i'm seein' what no one else will ever know i'm seein'
come on feelin', hey, i don't understand these things i'm feelin', no
Part 9: Lead-in to solo
Pick scrape/whammy bar/something like that on the last note
Solo here... ( Em - D )
Variation on Part 9:
Variation on Part 3:
Repeat Part 3 as written:
outta touch most all the time
too many things on my mind
shuttin' down, gotta stop this thing
Chorus:
feelin'...oh, i don't like what i've been told i'm feelin'
i'm bleedin'...like no one else will ever know i'm bleeding
dealin'...i'm dealin' with these things i'm feelin'
i'm dreamin', im dreamin', i'm dreamin' things that show me what i'm seein
seein'...i'm seein' things that i don't know i'm feelin'
i've been feelin', i'm feelin', i'm feelin' things that i don't know
i don't know, i don't know what i'm seein'
(Repeat: Bm - C#dim - D - Em - F#)
hey, i don't understand
Variation on Part 3:
Part 10 (the end):
(From Bob Brockman's transcription):
