Reading Time With Pickle Chords & Lyrics by Regina Spektor
Reading Time With Pickle
guitar chords lyrics
Ok, so I tabbed this on ukelele, so either play it with Capo 5 and transcribe the
chords a bit or play
it as it is. It's such a gorgeous unknown song of hers, and I actually have the lyrics
on my wall in my
bedroom. :) Yep and it's also my first tab. It's pretty simple too. Enjoy :)
Intro: C7 C C7 C
Bb
Walking home from work
F7
Stop at the supermarket
Bb
The condiment aisle
C7 F7
A jar of pickles catches the eye
F
Made eye contact with a solitary pickle -- ah!
C7
Bought the jar, took it home
Bb
Then made it up the stairs
F7
And made it through the doorway
Bb
And waded through the floor
C7 F
Tried to head in the general direction of the bathroom
The truest room In the whole damn
Bb
House
(Chorus)
F7
Sayin' love
C
Is the answer
F
To a question that I
C
have forgotten
F7 C
And I know I've been asked
F7 C
So the answer has got to be
F
Love
Yeah
Bb
So feeding time with TV
F7
Then sleeping time, not sleepy
Bb
So reading time with pickle
C7 F7
But where the bedside lamp had been
F Bb
Is now emanating soft, soft green
Bb
Has it always been this way?
F7 Bb
Is it possible that all this magic went unnoticed?
C7 F7
Maybe now things'll start to change
F
And life will turn a better page
F
No more rage
(Chorus)
Bb
Tomorrow, back to work again
F7
But run to the supermarket
Bb
Running hopeful through the aisles
C7 F7
Haven't been this happy in a long time
F
But not a single jar was smiling
F
After all
Bb
Man, pickle jars are just
F7
Pickle jars
Bb
And pickles are just pickles
C7
Ingredients:
F7
Water, salt, cucumbers
F F Bb
Garlic and pickling spices
F7
But love
C F
Is the answer to a question that I
C
Have forgotten
F7 C
And I know I've been asked
F7
And the answer's got to be
F
Lo... love
C F
Is the answer to a question that I
C
Have forgotten
F7 C
And I know I've been asked
And the answer's got to be
Love
And the answer's got to be love
And the answer's got to be love
And the answer's got to be love
