Washing Dishes Chords & Lyrics by Jack Johnson
Washing Dishes
guitar chords lyrics
Hey guys! So this pretty much my first tab! Got the new Jack Johnson album yesterday and
was blown away! Anyways, this is a combination of some-what completed tabs of this song
and covers that I've seen/heard so here you go:
Notes: Standard tuning, No capo and the Chords kinda switch pretty fast especially with
the Eb (Which is the one barred version on the 6th fret)
-Also, any helpful corrections would be great. Its not 100% correct, but at least its
close. :P
Into:
Bb Eb F
Bb Cm Eb F

-Verse 1-
Bb Cm F
In the morning when the world came awake
Bb Cm F
Before you knew me I knew your name
Bb Cm F
It was painted across the day as it breaks
Bb Cm F
An impression in your window frame
-Chorus-
Cm
When you saw me out your window
F
Singing from the garden
Cm
Only the beginning
F
I'm only getting started
Cm
I don't mind the digging
F
Baby, I'll work harder
Cm
I've been washing dishes
F
Singing from the bottom
-Verse 2-
Bb Cm F
But one day I'll be running this place
Bb Cm F
And one day I could take you away
Bb Cm F
But I want you to wonder what's my name
Bb Cm F
Because I need you to want me the same
-Chorus-
Cm
When you saw me washing dishes
F
Singing from the bottom
Cm
Only the beginning
F
I'm only getting started
Cm
I don't mind the digging
F
Baby, I'll work harder
Cm
I've been in the ashes
F
Singing from the garden
-Verse 3-
Bb Cm F
Where everything reaches for the sun
Bb Cm F
Still unsure of what we'll become
Bb Cm F
But I need you to reach out to me
Bb Cm F (continue playing F)
See in me more than I could see
-Chorus-
Because I'm afraid that
Cm Eb
One day is only two words we say
Bb F
I don't want to let them get in the way
Cm Eb Bb
Of all the plans that we should be making right now
F
Right now
Cm Eb
Who took the time and where did they take it
Bb
I want to take it back
F
I don't want them to break it
Cm Eb Bb
All these plans that we should be making right now
F
Right now
