guitar chords lyrics
Exactly as he plays it in this awesome live performance from BBC 4's 'Songwriter's
Circle' (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stjaM9MXQNY)
Standard tuning, capo 5th.
INTRO RIFF
The intro is a nice Am | G add4 | C | G add4 progression. He plays it with this little
fill in place of the last chord though:
So, start with:
[INTRO RIFF x3]
VERSE 1

From the top of the bus
Em C
She thought she saw him wave

She's all Tuesdays, and forgetfulness,
Em C
And a little money saved
BRIDGE 1
Am D
Does she know? I don't know.

But from here, I can tell
CHORUS
G D Am C D
It would try the patience of angels
G D Am C
It would try the patience of angels
[INTRO RIFF x 1]

Em C
When the morning hurts your eyes
G D
And the baby won't stop crying

Am D
Would I be any good?
C D
If I was, would I find...
[CHORUS]
VERSE 3
