Ok, so I tabbed this on ukelele, so either play it with Capo 5 and transcribe the
chords a bit or play
it as it is. It's such a gorgeous unknown song of hers, and I actually have the lyrics
on my wall in my
bedroom. :) Yep and it's also my first tab. It's pretty simple too. Enjoy :)
Intro: C7 C C7 C
[Bb]Walking home from work
[F7]Stop at the supermarket
[Bb]The condiment aisle
[C7]A jar of pickles catches the eye[F7]
Made eye contact with a solitary pickle -- ah![F]
Bought the jar, to[C7]ok it home
[Bb]Then made it up the stairs
[F7]And made it through the doorway
[Bb]And waded through the floor
[C7]Tried to head in the general direction of the bathroom[F]
The truest room In the whole damn
[Bb]House
(Chorus)
[F7]Sayin' love
[C]Is the answer
[F]To a question that I
[C]have forgotten
And I kno[F7]w I've been asked[C]
So the ans[F7]wer has got to be[C]
[F]Love
Yeah
[Bb]So feeding time with TV
[F7]Then sleeping time, not sleepy
[Bb]So reading time with pickle
But wh[C7]ere the bedside lamp had been[F7]
Is now emanating soft, soft[F] green[Bb]
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/r/regina_spektor/reading_time_with_pickle_crd.html )
[Bb]Has it always been this way?
[F7]Is it possible that all this magic w[Bb]ent unnoticed?
Maybe now t[C7]hings'll start to change[F7]
And life will turn a better page[F]
No more rage[F]
(Chorus)
Tomorrow, back to[Bb] work again
But ru[F7]n to the supermarket
Running hopefu[Bb]l through the aisles
[C7]Haven't been this happy in a long time[F7]
But not a single jar was smiling[F]
After al[F]l
Man, pic[Bb]kle jars are just
[F7]Pickle jars
And pic[Bb]kles are just pickles
[C7]Ingredients:
Water, sal[F7]t, cucumbers
[F]Garlic and pick[F]ling spices[Bb]
But lo[F7]ve
Is the an[C]swer to a question[F] that I
[C]Have forgotten
And I kn[F7]ow I've been asked[C]
And the answe[F7]r's got to be
[F]Lo... love
Is the ans[C]wer to a questio[F]n that I
[C]Have forgotten
And I kn[F7]ow I've been asked[C]
And the answer's got to be
Love
And the answer's got to be love
And the answer's got to be love
And the answer's got to be love
