This is one of Deer Tick's best songs in my opinion and the only tab I could
find on it was some bot guessing the chords that are played in one
of their live versions. This is the real thing and should be accurate. The only thing
I am not sure is accurate is the lyrics. If you have any corrections please leave a
message and I will look into it. Cheers
tuning: Standard
Capo: 2
Intro: It is hard to decipher everything that is played in the intro but you are basically
playing a G chord and messing around with 0--2--3 on the low E string and 0--1 on the B string
G D C D
It's a big house with all these things you're so unsure of
G D C D
in a big world with all these things you've never heard of
G D C D
Fix me up now if it seems that I need fixin
G D C D
and correct me if I stand to be corrected
G D C D
It's a sad song with all these words you've heard enough of
G D C D
It's a cliff walk with only one side you want to fall on
G D C D
Lift me up now let me walk amongst the gifted
G D C D
If i'm askin too much, it's just please to be comforted
Em C G (D)
Every morning when you're mean that you keep your hands clean
Em C G D
and it's running down your arms casting shadows on your heart
G D C D
You showed me how to die, put a price on how to cry
G D C D
You showed me how to tie, I'll just catch you by and by
G D C D
It's a deep hole, that you dug with all your lyin
G D C D
It's a flag pole and you don't know how low it's flyin
G D C D
The saviors need the saving when they show you how they're spineless
G D C D
The lovers need the let down or they'll figure out you're heartless
Em C G (D)
Every morning when you mean that you keep your hands clean
Em C G D
but it's runnin down your arms, oh it's tearin you apart
G D C D
you spoke into the sky and you've lied a million times
G D C D G
You showed me how to die, I guess I'll catch you on the other side
