inno,verse and chorus are all the same chord structure as intro. The guys will jam out
in between verses, so, listen to a few versions to get the feel. placement of the chords
wont be prefect as
the hip hop rhythm & squeezed syllables vary the lyric length of the verses, so once
again, listen to this one
a few times and ply along. #REVHEAD
Capo 2
[Intro]
E G# C# A G E
[Verse]
E G# C# A G E
My baby told me you gotta get better if you ever wanna win
E G# C# A G E
and I know that she’s not getting any better man she just sin
E G# C# A G E
I still love her but I know I was once there wearing them shoes
E G# C# A G E
I’m still hurting ‘cause the woman I love’s giving me the blues
[Verse]
E G# C# A G
sitting here sober but I wonder what shape she’ll find me in
E G# C# A G E
I need her under my skin like a junkie needs heroin
E G# C# A G E
and I’m never going back to Snake n’ Jakes the amount of money I spent I could’ve
bought the place
E G# C# A G E
not to mention that they know my face now it’s hell getting out the place
[Chorus]
E G# C# A G E
so I’m walking the streets tonight I’m catching some fireflies
E G# C# A G E
some would say that I’m living a lie but no more today no more tonight
E G# C# A G E
you could say that I’m under the gun nine million miles away from the sun
E G# C# A G E
I’ve hesitated much too long but I’m still having fun hope you’re having fun
[Verse]
E G# C# A G E
belly up in an ambulance I spent Sunday making doctor friends
E G# C# A G E
I could’ve used a pair of depends I hope that made you laugh ‘cause you know I’m a gentlemen
E G# C# A G E
heaven found me living didn’t find me dead got a permanent ash mark on my forehead
E G# C# A G E
but it still couldn’t save me from lying in bed staring at your clothes in the closet
while I was out of my head
[Chorus]
E G# C# A G E
so I’m walking the streets tonight I’m catching some fireflies
E G# C# A G E
some would say that I’m living a lie but no more today no more tonight
E G# C# A G E
you could say that I’m under the gun nine million miles away from the sun
E G# C# A G E
I’ve hesitated much too long but I’m still having fun hope you’re having fun
[Outro]
