"Own True Way"(Doyle/McCann/Trapper)
From "Sea of No Cares"



Capo fifth fret, and the best way to replicate the recurring melody on
your guitar is to (surprise!)mess about with the D shape, using hammer-ons
to create the Sus4,sus2 and 5th shapes.


Intro: D D Dsus4|D Dsus2 D|D D Dsus4|D Dsus2 D|D5 D D|D Dsus2|Dsus4 D

D
It takes a lot to get to the top
G
And a little just to fall off quick
A D
And I think I've seen you here before

Sometimes you fly so high
So fast it makes you sick
You won the battle lost the war

pre-chorus:

Em D
But I don't mind if you say
G
Every time you talk to me
A
Every time we talk

Chorus:
D A
We came, we saw
G D
We conquered and crumbled
Bm A G
In our own true way
D A
We loved, we fought
G D
We rocked and we tumbled
Bm A D
In our own true way

Intro

Well I believe in brotherhood
And the good of all mankind
Though I admit it's hard to find

But if you want to talk just come and knock
It don't matter what the time
Solitude is no friend of mine

And I don't mind if you say
Every time you talk to me
Every time we talk

[Chorus]

I don't mind
It's hard to be from a rock in the sea
Livin' in a big steel town
Finding unfamiliar faces all around

You heard 'em tell stupid jokes
You heard 'em laugh everytime you spoke
But you don't let nobody put you down

But I don't mind if you say
Every time you talk to me
Every time you talk to me
Every time we talk

Chorus, intro with ad lib:

In our own true way...
And I don't mind...
If you say...
