When In Rome Chords & Lyrics by Nickel Creek
When In Rome
guitar chords lyrics
VERSE 1
([ch]Dsus2/A[/ch])
Where can a sick man go?
When he can't choke down the medicine, the old doc knows?
([ch]Dsus2/Bb[/ch])
A specialist came to town, but he stays at home, sayin'
([ch]D7sus4/G[/ch])
No one knows so I don't, Honey, when in Rome.
VERSE 2
([ch]Dsus2/A[/ch])
Where can a teacher go?
Wherever she thinks people need the things she knows.
([ch]Dsus2/Bb[/ch])
Hey, those books you gave us look good on the shelves at home,
([ch]D7sus4/G[/ch])
And they'll burn warm in the fireplace, Teacher, when in Rome.
BRIDGE
([ch]F6/Bb[/ch]) (C/G)
Grab a blanket, sister, we'll make smoke signals.
([ch]F6/Bb[/ch]) (C/G)
Bring in some new blood it feels like we're alone.
([ch]F6/Bb[/ch]) (C/G)
Grab a blanket, brother, so we don't catch cold from one,
([ch]F6/Bb[/ch]) (C/G) ([ch]Dsus2/A[/ch])
another I wonder if we're stuck in Rome.
VERSE 3
([ch]Dsus2/A[/ch])
Where can a dead man go?
A question with an answer only dead men know.
([ch]Dsus2/Bb[/ch])
But I'm gonna bet they never really feel at home,
([ch]D7sus4/G[/ch])
If they spend a lifetime learning how to live in Rome.
