Brand New - "In a Jar"
Standard Tuning
Just the what I think the basic chords are.
The whole song does the same pattern
of Em C Em C Em C D Am except for at the end of chorus 2 and 3.
Intro: Em C Em C Em C D Am x2
Verse1
[Em]Stones in your eyes,
Stones in your ey[C]es,
[Em]Stones in your eyes,
Stones in your mo[C]uth,
[Em]Stones in your ears,
Stones in your mi[C]nd,
[D]Stones in your eyes,
Stones i[Am]n your eyes,
[Em]Living in a jar, think the lids th[C]e sky,
[Em]You're hoping for a savior on your cross o[C]utside.
[Em]Stars are just a million little fir[C]eflies,
[Em]The sun is just a hole; it is the li[Am]ght outside.
Chorus 1
[Em]Now what took me so [C]long?
[Em]Ten years drowning [C]from
[Em]darkness in my ey[C]es.
[D]Where you going; le[Am]t me stay tonight.

Verse 2
[Em]Maybe I should rest but on the sevent[C]h day,
[Em]I've created nothing and I'm wide awa[C]ke,
[Em]So can I tie my key to your electric k[C]ite?
[D]The rooster crowed twice and you kissed [Am]me goodnight.
[Em]There's too many saviors on my cross a[C]gain,
[Em]I know I'm never going to be a perfect[C] man.
[Em]Everyone's an oyster with their grain[C] of sand,
[D]I love you most and some, now it has to[Am] end.
Chorus 2
[Em]Now what took me so l[C]ong?
[Em]Ten years drowning f[C]rom
[Em]darkness in my e[C]yes.
[D]Where you going; [Am]let me stay tonight.
[C]Where you going; [G]let me stay tonight.
Verse 3
[Em]Stones in your eyes,
Stones in your [C]eyes,
[Em]Stones in your eyes,
Stones in your [C]eyes,
[Em]Stones in your eyes,
Stones in your [C]eyes,
[D]I'd run a million miles if you w[Am]on first prize.
