(strumming: ddown, uup)
for the C ^ just do a normal C chord, and use your pinky to hit the B string on the third fret.
Verse 1:
Jos[G]hua smi[d]led, said lis[G]ten to re[d]ason,
G dEm C G(leads into intro)
Don't blame me when the walls come tumbling down.
So [G]I was adr[d]ift on the s[G]ea of lon[d]ging,
G d EmCG (leads into intro)
awaiting the trumpets to raise your ivory gown.
Chorus:
And if [Em]on-[C]ly t[C]ime w[d]ill t[G]ell,
Then I ca[C]n't stand waiting
While the li[C]ghts are changing on [Em]me.
T[C]ell it to my o[C]wn fr[d]ee wi[G]ll.
If I l[Bm]ost this thorn from my s[Em]ide,
I think I'd d[d]ie.
(repeat intro)
Verse 2: (same as Verse 1 in terms of chords)
Albert Camus said, "living is anguish,
but don't dare let those bastards weigh you down."
And if this is so, then I see no reason
for spending the evening doing anything but going downtown.
Chorus:
And if [Em]on-[C]ly t[C]ime w[d]ill t[G]ell,
Then I ca[C]n't stand waiting
While the li[C]ghts are changing on [Em]me.
T[C]ell it to my o[C]wn fr[d]ee wi[G]ll.
If I l[Bm]ost this thorn from my s[Em]ide,
I'd probably [d]I'd die,
Most likely d[d]ie,
I think I'd [d]die.
(repeat intro and end on G)
Enjoy! )
