I tabbed this off the "Altered Course 011 - Modern Baseball "Tears Over Beers"" video,
its not 100% because I changed a little bit of it to sound what I thought was best. Sorry
if the tab is confusing to read, I couldn't find the chord names so they are as follows:
Tuning Half Step Down
D: xx775x
Dsus: xx777x
5/6: xx775x
3/7: xxx773 or xxxx73 (if you can't reach)
G: xxx553
A: xxx775
You can find out the strumming by watching it the video, its fairly simple but changes
in some parts.
D Dsus2 5/6 D
When I was just a boy, we'll call it 15 or so,
Dsus2 5/6 D
I found myself annoyed by a syndrome of sorts in my bones
Dsus2 5/6 D
That girl who's next to me, she found herself bored to tears
Dsus2 5/6 D
She realized that if she wanted conversation, she's out of luck for three more years
D-Dsus2-5/6
D Dsus2 5/6 D
When I moved away from home, 100 miles or so,
Dsus2 5/6 D
I knew a change had grown inside my awkwardly long limbs and bones
Dsus2 5/6 D
That girl who's next to me, she's friendly and thoughtful and quite awfully pretty,
Dsus2 5/6 D
But all she has to say is a meat head-themed monologue on why Brad ran away
D Dsus2 3/7 G
She said, "All I can hope for is for me to get better,
D Dsus2 G A
because all I can take is no more.
D Dsus2 3/7 G
I'll win him back again, we'll be lovers, best friends.
D Dsus2 3/7 G D
He won't need no other woman like he did way back when he was with me.
D Dsus2 3/7
D Dsus2 3/7
He needed more than me
D Dsus2 3/7 G
I'm friendly and thoughtful and quite awfully pretty,
D Dsus2 G
But he needed more than me."
D Dsus2 3/7 D Dsus2 5/6
When I felt that I should leave, we'll call it midnight or so,
D Dsus2 3/7 D Dsus2 5/6
I found myself annoyed by a syndrome of sorts in her bones
D Dsus2 3/7 D Dsus2 3/7
That girl who's next to me, she don't know her worth in this town,
D Dsus2 3/7
because her face starts to shine when that meat head behind me
D Dsus2 3/7
Is grinning as he's checking her out
D Dsus2 3/7 G
I said, "All I can hope for is for you to get better,
D Dsus2 G A
Because all I can take is no more.
D Dsus2 G A
I'll hide where I can, away from you and your friends,
D Dsus2 G A
leaking tears over beers once again.
D Dsus2 G A
Leaking tears over beers once again,
D Dsus2 G
you're leaking tears over beers once again."
