guitar chords lyrics
Opinion
by Greg Graffin, from the album American Lesion
TAB and Chord layout by Nasgul07
Standard tuning: E A D G B E
Riff 1 & 2 are actually played on keyboard and possibly banjo/e-banjo in the
original, along to the backing chords on guitar (see above RIFF 1 & 2), but it
still sounds good played on the guitar.

C G D C G D
The first thing I remember was the friction in the room
C G D Em G D
And that brown spinet piano that never played in tune
C G D C G D
The cruel impatient tyrant, the frustrated malcontent,
C G D Em D
The need to find the pieces, and the absence of cement
C G C G D
No one ever told me about the right way to love
C G D
And no one ever showed me what we're supposed to be made of
C G C G D
So don't be too forthright about what you think that I should be
C G D G
And I'll willingly accept your low opinion of me
//RIFF 1//
C G D C G D
The last thing I remember was the slamming of the door
C G D Em G D
And the resonance of my imperfection broke the silence once more
C G D C G D
The selfish angry bastard who doesn't want to hear
C G D Em D
I tried to learn compassion you turned the other ear
C G C G D
No one ever told me about the right way to love
C G D
And no one ever showed me what we're supposed to be made of
C G C G D
So don't be too forthright about what you think that I should be
C G D G
And I'll willingly accept your low opinion of me
//RIFF 2//

C G D C G D
The worn out broken record who doesn't fit the mold
C G D C G D
The righteous independent, the mood so harsh and cold
C G C G D
Momma never told me about the right way to love
C G D
And daddy never showed me what we're supposed to be made of
C G C G D
So don't be too forthright about what you think that I should be
C G D G
And I'll willingly accept your low opinion of me
//RIFF 1// x2
