Subject: CRD: They Might Be Giants "Dead"
Here's "Dead"; these are the chords I use on the piano, and I think they're
the same as the recording.
DEAD (by They Might Be Giants)
------------------------------
(Each chord is half a measure, except "X - Y" is a half measure TOTAL.)
[F]I returned a [Bb]bag [-]of [C]groceries
[F]Accidently [Bb]tak[-]en [C]off the [F]shelf before the [Bb]exp[-]ir[C]ation [F]date[F]
[F]I came back as a [Bb]bag of [C]groceries
[F]Accidently [Bb]tak[-]en [C]off the [F]shelf before the [Bb]date s[-]tamped [C]on my[F]self[F7]
[Bb]Did a large proce[Gm]ssion wave their [Gm]torches as my [Gm]head fell in the [Bb]basket
And was [Gm]everybody [C]dancing on the [C7]casket?
[F] Now it's over, I'm [Bb]dead and I haven't [C]done anything that I [C]want
Or I'm [F]still alive and there's [Bb]nothi[-]ng I [C]want to [F]do[C7]
I will never say the word "procrastinate" again
I'll never see myself in the mirror with my eyes closed
I didn't apologize or when I was eight
And I made my younger brother have to be my personal slave
Did a large procession... ...nothing I want to do
[F]So I won't [Bb]sit at home [F]anymore [Bb]and you won't
[F]See my head in [Bb]the window [F]and I won't [Bb]be around
[F]Ever any[Bb]more and I'll be [F]up there on the [Bb]wall at the [C]stor[-]e[C7]
I returned the bag of groceries... ...stamped on myself
Did a large procession... ...nothing I want to do
