J Mascis track of the John Peel Sessions album
Plenty of scope for wee flourishes and picking...
INTRO
C D Bm
Tales they spun make better days
C
Can't explain and I can't stay
C D G
Please just make it go away
(Verse chords for 1 verse)
VERSE 1
G D Em
Every guy walks down my street
C G
Any girl they care to meet
Am Em D
I know there's something out there
G D Em
Any time it seemed OK
C G
Had to wreck it couldn't wait
Am Em D
I know there's something better.... Oh No?
CHORUS
D* (C at 3rd fret) C C/B (pick)
Everybody lets me down
Am Em (Yeeha strummin'!!)
All this time I've never found
D* C C/B
Everybody lets me down
Am Em D G
Go outside and look around, never quite sat on the ground
VERSE 2
G D Em
In a pile I cry I sleep
C G
In the day the same old heap
Am Em D
I know there's something out there
G D Em
After a while I get worn down
C G
How much hope am I allowed
Am Em D
How much is there left out there.... Not much?
CHORUS
OUTRO (see INTRO)
And so it goes...
