This song is all open chords, standard tuning.
Huge props go to Addled from YouTube (see her cover here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DN1Lp_oCXWY ) ,and also the previous versions of
this song. Addled uses a G instead of an Em in the verse, but you can go with
whatever sounds best to you.
Verse: 4 down strums/beats for C, Em, and Am
2 down strums/beats for F and G
Chorus: 4 down strums for F and G
2 down strums for following Am, G, F, and G
For lowercase g, strum once, then leave it hanging so it takes up the time of 4 strums
C Em Am F G
Hey[C], I'll move out of the way for you
C Em Am F G C
Hey, I'll move out of the way for her too
Em Am F G C
I never thought we'd end up here in seperate cages.
Em Am
It doesn't go like this
F G C Em, Am, F, G
You've left out some pages
(same as last verse)
Hey, when was the last time you laughed
and did you mean it when you did?
I'm just wonderin'
There's sorrow in your voice, it's abounding
It's astounding how you live so close to your cure
(Chorus)
F G Am G F, G
I never know what to do with my love
F G Am G F, G
I never know what to do with my hands
F G Am G F
So I'll put them behind my back
G C G
I'll put them behind my back
Am F G
Behind my back
(same as verse 1)
Hey, don't you know what it means when I say "hey"?
Hey see it in my face, I'm breaking
I've waited for so long
Just to know
That you'd wrap yourself around me if you couldn't let go
(same as chorus)
I never know what to do with my love
I never know what to do with my hands
So I put them behind my back (put them behind my back)
I put them behind my back (behind my back)
Behind my back (put them behind my back)
(same as verse)
Can I move out of the way tomorrow?
Can I move into the way tonight?
