Modern Baseball – Hours Outside In the Snow
Capo4 Chords: E – 022100, A (Amaj7sus2) – x02100
Ok I know for a fact that this is nowhere near anything close to being the real chords,
but it’s a simple repetition and help get the gist of the rhythm and timing.
If anyone has any corrections, or additions that could make this better feel
free to comment and I’ll edit it, or change it yourself.
E A
I spent all of Christmas Eve fake angry at you for
E A E
Who knows what now or then and you spoke so fast
A E A
I just sat back relaxed and took you all in
E A
I spent all of Christmas Eve trying to get warmer
E
After standing outside for hours knowing at this point
A
I’d be lucky to get any sleep
E A
And I’ll toss and turn until the early morning
E
Happily ignoring that my blue jeans
A
Didn’t do a fucking thing for me
Against this cold
E A
Sober or not, I locked everything you sent me
E
Cause what’s better than seeing
A
What I’m missing daily
I guess what I’m trying to say is that
E E E A A A
You might run, oh but I won’t hide
E E E
Shed an ounce of light
A A A
On my half-hopeless life
Don’t let me go back
E
And though I’d like to say more
A
I guess, I’ll just duck and cover
E
Almost praying that you trip over
A
The cluster of words I laid out before having to leave
E
But since you’ve taken the time to read so carefully
A
Everything I’ve ever sent
E
I guess I’ll spend the next few lines
A
Hoping and wishing
Yet thanking appropriately
E E E A A A
You might run, oh but I won’t hide
E E E
Shed an ounce of light
A A A
On my half-hopeless life
Don’t let me go back
E E E A A A
You might run, oh but I won’t hide
E E E
Shed an ounce of light
A A A
On my half-hopeless life
Don’t let me go back
E A
To Erin: Please read later
E
Cause I don’t think I have the heart
A
To let you read this now
E
But if I had the heart
A
You know that I know better
E A
This isn’t how you say aloud, you say aloud x2
E E E A A A
You might run, oh but I won’t hide
E E E
Shed an ounce of light
A A A
On my half-hopeless life
Don’t let me go back (Guitar 2 Plays this during the second loop of the previous verse, To Erin…)
“Don’t let me go back”
