FOR GEMMA :) xxxx
Artist : Emmy The Great
Song: Dylan
Time: 3:00 approx.
90 % correct at least ;)
you'll notice that the majority of this song is written in barre chords.
the transitions between chords (the F#'s and G#'s) between F-G and G-Am make the
song a lot better. this song should be played staccato (mostly).
the C barre and Am barre were bastards to work out from listening to the song.

--intro--
Am x 5
--Verse 1--
I p[Am]ray for rain because I'm tr[G]ying
To find g[Am]od and make him c[G]ry,
Because I'm dyi[C]ng in a fire beneath my co[G]vers.
And somewhere o[Am]ut across the w[G]ay,
You ask for s[Am]alt across a pl[G]ate,
And you can't fi[C]nd a word to say
To your own bro[G]ther.
--Bridge--
And you could c[Fmaj7]all me over no[G]w,
And we could fi[Fmaj7]x this with our mou[G]ths,
[G]But you don't buy the farm,
If you can't afford the c[Am]ow.
--Chorus--
And you say D[Fmaj7]ylan is a sentiment
That you don't want to share,
F# C (barre)
And you say you looked back in anger
And it rose to meet your stare,
F (barre)
And you say I am not the one
Who puts the bullet to your gun
Am (barre)
And makes it flare.
Fmaj7 F# G (barre)
And you say Dylan is a sentiment to you,
Am (barre)
And you don't want to share.
--Verse 2--
You say you're lo[Am]oking for the tr[G]uth,
Like you got ri[Am]fles in your b[G]ooks,
But up ab[C]ove your parents' roof
I saw no st[G]ar tonight,
Only the bl[Am]ack from whence you c[G]ame,
And where they'll s[Am]end you back aga[G]in,
And no blue pl[C]aque will keep your name
From falling o[G]ut of sight.
--Bridge--
And you can [Fmaj7]wage this war of o[G]ne,
And I am s[Fmaj7]till the only on[G]e
Who will remember you when you are g[Am]one.
--Chorus--
C (barre)
And you say Dylan is a sentiment
That you don't want to share,
And you say you looked back in anger
And it rose to meet your stare,
F (barre)
And you say I am not the one
Who puts the bullet to your gun
Am (barre)
And makes it flare.
Fmaj7 F# G (barre)
And you say Dylan is a sentiment to you,
Am (barre)
And you don't want to share.
--Break--
C (barre)
Oh and all the things you talk about
But never say to me,
Am (barre)
And all the things to talk about
That I could say to you,
C (barre)
Like reading an Italian book
From the 13th century,
G (barre)Am (barre)
Is not that hard to do.
F (barre) F# (barre) G (barre)
--Altern. Chorus--
F (barre)
And I am not the kind
F# G (barre)
Who puts their toe against the line
Am (barre)
And makes it tear,
F (barre)
But this could be the thing
G (barre)
That puts the blood into your skin
Am (barre)
And keeps it there.
--Chorus--
F (barre)
And you say Dylan is a sentiment
C (barre)
That no one else will ever understand.
F (barre) G (barre)
And you say Dylan is a sentiment to you,
G (barre) Am (barre)
But you are only just a man.
--Outro--
Am (barre) x 5 staccato in quick succession.
