xHey, all. This is my first tab, but I'm a music student who plays a lot of stuff by ear, I think it'll be decent. -- I was really frustrated to find that NO ONE had posted any or chords of this song, so I sat down and did it myself. It's not exact, but it'll get really, really close. Feel free to hit me up for any questions. ([email protected]) Enjoy! v = the next note is lower ^ = the next note is higher ~ = trill m = minor M = major 6 = first inversion; third of the chord in the bass 6/4 = second inversion; fifth of the chord in the bass ******* Ani Difranco - Studying Stones INTRO: Melody: C v G ^ B v F ^ A Chords: Cm6 // GM6/4 // FM ~~~ Melody: C v G ^ B v F ^ A V G V ~F~ Chords: cm6 // GM64 // FM // ~~~ cm -- BbM -- AbM AbM -- BbM -- cm(add9) (x 2) ~~~ VERSES: Cm I am out here studying stones Bb Trying to learn to be less alive Ab Using all of my will Bb To keep very still Cm Cm (add9) Still even on the inside Cm I've cut all of the pertinent wires Bb So my eyes can't make that connection Ab I am holding my breath Bb I am feigning my death Cm Cm(add9) When I'm looking in your direction ~~~ EbM 'Course numb is an old hat DbM Old as my oldest memories Ab See that one's my mother Bb And that one's my father Cm Cm(add9) And that one in the hat, that's me EbM It's a skill I'd hoped to abandon Bb? When I got out on the open road Fm? But any more pent up emotion Bb? Cm(add9) And I think I'm gonna explode ~~~ Cm Cm(add9) There's never been an endeavor so strange Bb As trying to slow the blood in my veins Ab To keep my face blank Bb As a stone that just sank Cm Cm(add9) Until not a ripple remains Cm Cm(add9) I am high above the tree line Bb Sitting cross legged on the ground Ab When all of the forbidden fruit Bb has fallen and rotted Cm Cm(add9) That's when I'm gonna come down ~~~ EbM 'Course numb is an old hat DbM Old as my oldest memories Ab See that one's my mother Bb And that one's my father Cm Cm(add9) And that one in the hat, that's me EbM It's a skill I'd hoped to abandon Bb? When I got out on the open road Fm? But any more pent up emotion Bb? Cm(add9) And I think I'm gonna explode END ON: Cm(add9) ***** tabbed by: thatlizgirl -- [email protected]
