Alright,
CAPO: 5th Fret
{but I suppose you can chose your own key depending on where you feel most
comfy singing. 5th fret matches her own key.
Also, when I play the first A-minors of the combo, I pull off and hammer on
the 4th string. You can also pull off 1st string on the D, just a thought.
3 beats per measure, like a waltz, if you're interested.
ENJOY!
Verse:
[Am]Never knew [Am]why [C]he would fall [D]victim to
[Am]Five dollar [Am]highs - [C]bending his [D]stories
In[Am]venting new [Am]lies - [C]telling of [D]cancers one
[Am]Way to a[Am]void [C]questions and [D]answers and
Chorus:
[C]Karl is [G]lucky hes [F]learned how to [Am]fly
By [C]keeping his [G]knees on the [F]ground - aye [Am]aye
The [C]most likely [G]one to a[Em]chieve such a [Am]high
And Karl is missing tonight
[Am]What can I [Am]say [C]to his poor [D]father
He [Am]calls every [Am]day - [C]looking for [D]clues
Theres no [Am]gingerbread [Am]trail [C]for him to [D]follow
The [Am]candy mans [Am]come and [C]taken his [D]son and
[C]Karl, hes [G]lucky hes [F]learned how to [Am]fly
By [C]keeping his [G]knees on the [F]ground - aye [Am]aye
His [C]face in the [G]dirt, and his [Em]friends by his [Am]side
And Karl is missing tonight
Bridge:
C(cont.) F C
Maybe Im the one thats wrong - I misunderstood
You just wanna [G]die young to come back and [Am]feel good
But is it worth the ex[F]change? does it keep you from [C]harm?
The last time I [G]saw you ~ you clutched my [Am]arm and you [C]wept
Like a [G]child
And [C]Karl, hes [G]lucky, hes [F]learned how to [Am]fly
By [C]keeping his [G]knees on the [F]ground - aye [Am]aye
Hes [C]learned how to [G]leave without [Em]saying good[Am]bye
And [C]Karl is [G]missing [F]tonight
And Karl is out of my... life.
Out of my life.
End on Am
The last line is a little wonky, but I trust you all to be creative with it. ;)
