------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE REMEDY - Jason Mraz ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Krista Email: [email protected]
I can't believe this has such a poor rating. It's supposed to be acoustic! I know it's not how Jason plays it, but I've seen how he plays it and I've looked at the other tabs that are correct... FYI: These are the exact same chords, it's just in a different key! I made it this way because when he plays it he uses all barred chords which is kind of difficult for some people. These are the same chords, I just transposed it into a different key. (He plays Gm Cm F Bb which believe it or not is capo on 3rd Em Am D G)
[Intro]
EmCGDBmCGD EmCGDBmCGD
[Verse]
EmAm I saw fireworks from the freeway DG And behind closed eyes I cannot make them go away EmAm Cause you were born on the fourth of july, freedom ring DG Well something on the surface it stinks EmAm I said something on the surface, well it kind of makes me nervous DG Who says that you deserve this and what kind of god would serve this? EmAm We will cure this dirty old disease D Well if you've got the poison I've got the remedy
EmAm The remedy is the experience DG This is a dangerous liaison EmAm I say the comedy is that its serious DG This is a strange enough new play on words EmAm I say the tragedy is how you're gonna spend DG The rest of your nights with the light on EmAm So shine the light on all of your friends D Well it all amounts to nothing in the end.
[Chorus]
GCDEmBmCD I--- I wont worry my life away. Hey, oh oh. GCDEmBmCD I--- I wont worry my life away. Hey, oh oh.
[Instrumental]
EmCGDBmCGD
[Verse]
EmAm I heard two men talking on the radio DG In a cross fire kind of new reality show EmAm Uncovering the ways to plan the next big attack DG They were counting down the days to stab the brother in the EmAm Be right back after this, the unavoidable kiss, DG Where the minty fresh death breath is sure to outlast EmAm This catastrophy, dance with me D Because if you've got the poison, I've got the remedy
EmAm The remedy is the experience DG This is a dangerous liaison EmAm I say the comedy is that its serious DG This is a strange enough new play on words EmAm I say the tragedy is how you're gonna spend DG The rest of your nights with the light on EmAm So shine the light on all of your friends D Well it all amounts to nothing in the end.
[Chorus]
GCDEmBmCD I--- I wont worry my life away. Hey, oh oh. GCDEmBmCD I--- I wont worry my life away. Hey, oh oh.
[Bridge 1]
EmCG When I fall in love I take my time D There's no need to hurry when I'm making up my mind EmCGD You can turn off the sun but I'm still gonna shine and I'll tell you why
[Bridge 2]
(play G throughout) Because the remedy is the experience. This a dangerous liaison I say the comedy is that its serious. This is a strange enough new play on words I say the tragedy is how you're gonna spend The rest of your nights with the light on So shine the light on all of your friends Because it all amounts to nothing in the end.
[Chorus]
GCDEmBmCD I--- I wont worry my life away. Hey, oh oh. GCDEmBmCD I--- I wont worry my life away. Hey, oh oh.
(Repeat chorus chords with similar lyrics, I won't, I won't, I won't, worry my life away, etc.)
