I Was Born In Omaha by The Gloria Record
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Ad*Astra
Tuning: Standard
I use two different G chords throughout the song. For the verses I use the open 320003
the two progression changes when it switches to G-Bm-A or the outro Bm-A-G, I use
barre chord 355433. I put an asterisk where to use the barre chord.
D G
I was born in Omaha
Bm
In my mother's tired arms
A
After all our fight was gone
D
I bet it felt good just to lie there
G
Drinking in the warm light
Bm
And breathing through the tubes
A G
As our lovers filled the room with conversation

G
D G
I was named to bear you like
Bm
A float in a parade
A D
My piano fingers tugging at the cord
G
And so much extra skin
Bm
That I still can't fill it in
A
Wonder whose it could have been
G*
'Cause it don't fit me comfortably
Bm
And the nurses stopping in
A
To see that you are fine
G* Bm
To open up the blinds
A
And shower you with sunshine
D G
I was born in Omaha
Bm
Born to steal her skeptic heart
A D
My piano fingers tugging at the cord
G
'Cause life in a bubble can be
Bm
The sweetest thing sometimes
A
With the world just passing by
G
Outside your window
