Tuning: Standard
Great song, by a great band. I strummed along to this and accidentally figured out the
intro chord (G), so I decided to figure it out so I could play it just with my acoustic.
May not be entirely accurate, but Its good enough for me.
Chords:
G - 3-2-0-0-3-3-|
Gmaj7 - 2-x-0-0-3-3-|
Em7 - 0-2-2-0-3-3-|
C - x-3-2-0-1-0-|
Am - x-0-2-2-1-0-|
Intro: G
Verse:
Blame the [(G)]suits who lined their pockets with her tears,
Blame the [Gmaj7]boys in the blindfolds covering their ears,
Blame the [Em7]magazines she read,join the righteous waning side,
It was a [C]misinterpretation of the neon signs.
Chorus:
[G]It was a rainy miserable Sunday,
[Gmaj7]Carried your cedar up the stairs,
[Em7]Collared man did his best to apologize,
But the [C]damage it was done, she believed in all their lies.
Bridge:
Id buy your [G]soul, but I cant afford to [Am]pay girl,
They [C]say that you get nothing for [G]free,
Your [(G)]lipstick adorns my [Am]collar,
While these [C]thoughts of fire wrestle with [G]me.
Verse:
[(G)]Then her father said to me,
Tom I [Gmaj7]cant ascribe a purpose to this atrocity,
[Em7]Trademark my messiah and call me an orderly,
I need 8[C]00 cups of Kool-Aid for my prophecy.
Chorus:
[G]It was a rainy miserable Sunday,
[Gmaj7]Carried your cedar up the stairs,
[Em7]Collared man did his best to apologize,
But the [C]damage it was done, she believed in all their lies.
Bridge:
Id buy your [G]soul, but I cant afford to [Am]pay girl,
They [C]say that you get nothing for [G]free,
Your [(G)]lipstick adorns my [Am]collar,
While these [C]thoughts of fire wrestle with [G]me.
Outro: (really quickly) G - Gmaj7 - G (end on this G)
