This song has a wicked taberature, and if you want the full experience I'd recommend
this version: http://www.3eb.co.uk/archive/index.php/t-10827.html
But here are some simpler chords if you just want to sing along :). You can lose the
capo and just barre at the same spots, but this is how I like to play it.
CAPO 5
E 022100
Asus x00220
C#m x46650
Bsus x24430
VERSE:
[C#m] Time tick tick ticks after me
[Bsus] My mp3 is out of juice
[Asus] I wrote a song for you but what's the use
How did we get [C#m]knocked so loos[Bsus]e, knocked so l[Asus]oose.
VERSE:
[C#m] Someone I swore I'd never be
[Bsus] Who trades his dreams for security
[Asus] Walks this city blindly
Lately it's a little [C#m]hard for me to see[Bsus]
Lately it's a little [Asus]hard for me to believe
And it's [E]all disapp[Asus]earing
And it a[E]ll falls ap[Asus]art
And it s[E]eems like the [Asus]ending
Is a [E]lot like the [Asus]start
Well nature has its own rules
Like gravity crushing me
And lies, I'm of the memory
Lately it's a little hard for me to believe
At least you left a mark on me
And I think there's a reason
At least there's a sign
And all that we call chaos
I will say it's by design
But I'm just lying
What you need is a s[E]harp knife soul
To come back down from an [Asus]all time low
Seems Ive got the [Bsus]only one
I wish I was a sha[C#m]rp knife
Swing that blade right thro[E]ugh my life
Careful, you could h[Asus]urt someone
I wish I was a sha[Bsus]rp knife
to cut!
[C#m] [C#m] [C#m]
A shiv,
[C#m] [C#m] [C#m]
A shiv,
[C#m] [C#m] [C#m]
A shiv,
[C#m] [C#m] [C#m]
A shiv.
The rest repeats these progressions. Hope you enjoy...I wrote this out because I
couldn't find any simple ways to play this great song.
P.S. You can try different E chords in the chorus (I'm partial to x79900 from time to
time, and then x09900 is an complementary A)
