Willy Mason - Still a Fly

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi, this is my first tab, so I'm not sure if it's completely accurate, but it sounds ok to me.
Any comments or corrections are welcome.
Standard tuning (EADGBE)

Intro: play 2x C Am G

e|----------------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------1--1-----------1--1-----------0--0-------------|
G|--------0--0--0--------2--2--2--------0--0--0--0--0-------|
D|-----2--------------2--------------0-----------------3--2-|
A|--3--------------0----------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------3-------------------------|

Verse 1 (play with the same picking pattern as the intro)

[C]That's alright, that's okay
[Am]I can wait, you're still a fly
[G]Eating through, trying to live within the space you're in

[C]But still, you're just a kid
[Am]You shouldn't read D[G]ostoefsky at your age
[C]That and nicotine will make you pale and lean
[Am]And twist your face like Mr. Grays
Though it just m[G]anifests in paintings that you make
[C]Or else your eyes will stay the same
[Am]Are you that hungry for a [G]change?

Chorus: D D C C

A|-----------------------3--------3-------|
E|----------------------------------------|

[D]You're [D]waking up
[C]You're [C]flying out
[D]The doo[D]r has sprung loose
[C]Don't f[C]orget me

Verse 2 (same chords as verse 1)

That's alright, that's okay
We can just run away
And justify our escape with the games that we play
And when we get there
I will say "Hey baby"
Maybe you would laugh a lot
Because that's not something I usually say
But that's no reason
Why I got on the tip of my tongue
And that's still okay

[D]You're [D]waking up
[C]You're [C]flying out
[D]The door[D] has sprung loose
[C]Don't fo[C]rget me

And then it came and rained on down, from the sky
and into my head

G|-----------------------0----0----0----0----0----0----0--|
D|--2--2--2--4--4--4--4-----------------------------------|

I tried to think but it was too fast, so I just
said anything...

that came at last

[D]You're [D]waking up
[C]You're [C]flying out
[D]The doo[D]r has sprung loose
[C]Don't fo[C]rget me

[D]You're w[D]aking up
[C]You're f[C]lying out
[D]The door[D] has sprung loose
[C]Don't forget [C]me
