Brand new single from Conor Oberst, released for streaming online Feb 11th, 2014. Check
out his new album "Upside Down Mountain" coming out May 20th, as well as new tour dates.
Enjoy and share!
Tuning: Standard
Capo: 2nd Fret
The alternate C chord he is using occasionally is a Cmaj7 addG (x32003) but a regular C
works fine too.
Intro: G Cmaj7 G
[G] [Cmaj7] [G]
What a [G]thing to be the [Cmaj7]witness to the [G]sunshine
What a [G]dream to just be [Cmaj7]walking on the [G]ground
What a [Em]time to live [Bm]among the ashen [C]remnants of our [G]love
That came [G]before and I'm still [D]looking for that [G]now
It took [G]centuries to [Cmaj7]build these twisted [G]cities
It took [G]seconds to re[Cmaj7]duce them down to [G]dust
And all the [Em]tour guide could [Bm]say was
'Take your [C]pictures folks it's [G]late
And try your [G]best please to re[D]member what was [G]done'
[C]Don't look so forlorn, don't you look so [G]scared
[C]Don't get so upset, this world was never [G]fair
But there are [D]hundreds of ways to [C]get through the day
There are [D]hundreds of ways, now [C]you just find one[G][Cmaj7][G]
I [G]used to think that [Cmaj7]time was of the [G]essence
[G]Now I just wish [Cmaj7]I could get some [G]sleep
All the [Em]strange parade of [Bm]sounds the city [C]makes when I lie [G]down
Little ex[G]plosions that set [D]fire to my [G]dreams
Some[G]times I get mis[Cmaj7]taken for this [G]actor
And I [G]guess that I can [Cmaj7]see it from the [G]side
Maybe [Em]no one really [Bm]seems to be the [C]person that they [G]mean to be
I [G]hope I am for[D]gotten when I [G]die
[C]Don't contradict me, don't make me cross the [G]line
[C]If you feel threatened, it's only 'cause I [G]might
But there are [D]hundreds of ways to [C]get through the day
There are [D]hundreds of ways to [C]get through the day
Yes there are [D]hundreds of ways so [C]you best find one[G]
[D]All my heroes, they're [C]all talk
[D]Running in circles, some [C]stopwatch some chaos
[D]Love was the message, [C]for a start
We [Em]ramble [Bm]on and [C]on
We [Em]ramble [Bm]on and [C]on (HEY!)[G]
I stole [G]all the rhinestones [Cmaj7]out of Caro[G]lina
And [G]sold them out in [Cmaj7]Bakersfield for [G]cash
Now the [Em]bandshell got a [Bm]band sound like an [C]arcade in Ja[G]pan
Blew all my [G]quarters trying to [D]get that feeling [G]back
Now any [G]sucker can turn [Cmaj7]boredom into [G]violence
A [G]sociopath [Cmaj7]riding on a [G]bus
And his [Em]irises are [Bm]black from his [C]novelty con[G]tacts
He looks [G]around but he can?t [D]see the rest of [G]us
[C]In my sunglasses don't mind the blinding [G]light
[C]It's getting dark broke, but I've always loved the [G]night
But there are [D]hundreds of ways to [C]get through the day
There are [D]hundreds of ways to [C]get through the day
There are [D]hundreds of ways to [C]get through the day
There are [D]hundreds of ways to [C]get through the day
There are [D]hundreds and hundreds and [C]hundreds of ways
To [D]get through the day [C] just find one[G]
