Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
NOTE: Although the original album version from ?Mercedes Five and Dime? has a longer and more mysterious intro, there aren?t really any guitar parts until the first verse. The radio mix version which I?ve transcribed here has an acoustic intro, but the rest of the song is basically the same as the album version. All chords are listed at the bottom.
INTRO: C(add9)GA7sus4Em7 (x4)
VERSE:
C(add9)G Sitting by a Judas mantel BmEm Underneath where I can tell C(add9)G Found the places I?m destroying BmEm Only hoped you?d be there still C(add9)G Could not find a way to be it BmEm I don?t even mind this time C(add9)G Here we?d like to get things over BmEm Life, love, anything at all
CHORUS:
C(add9)GA7sus4Em7 And when the morning comes we?ll sit here C(add9)GA7sus4Em7 And when the atom breaks we?ll just stare C(add9)GA7sus4Em7 And my life goes underground C(add9)GA7sus4Em7 And my life goes underground
VERSE: Sitting by a Judas mantel Underneath, well I?ve been there Could not right the only pieces Test out anything you will
CHORUS: And when the morning comes, we sit here And when the atom breaks, and we stare And my life goes underground And my life goes underground
VERSE: Sitting by a Judas mantel Very well what we define Counted up the broken pieces Here we want to redefine All dementia memory brought for All the weakness we can?t tell Understood that I discover Right here everything is well
C(add9)GBmEm (x4)
CHORUS: And when the morning comes, we?ll sit here And when the saddle breaks, I?ll stand still And my life goes underground And my life goes underground
(switch to VERSE chords):
And my life goes underground And my life goes underground And my life goes underground And my life goes underground...
If I left it all the same, well it doesn?t mean No it doesn?t mean that it?s not personal And I never understood why the faces fade It?s so irrational As the atoms start to phase And I knew it couldn?t mean that much to me And I never understood where the friends all go No it?s not so personal
(end with CHORUS chords):
And my life goes underground And my life goes underground And my life goes underground And my life goes underground....
