Pete Rose and Babe Ruth Have Mercy
CAPO: none
INTRO:
[A]
[A] I'll tell you how it went
[A]
And all the time we spent
Trying to [D]make something of us
Something we [C#m]knew but never [D]was
[A] Laid faced down on the bed
[A]
And spoke in tongues with the dead
The times you [D]saw me lose my cool
The stares were [C#m]blank, the words were [D]cruel
[D] But what if I was the problem the whole [E]time?
Well, I'd beg for[A]giveness and oblige
The ground just opened wide and ate me [D]whole
[D] E
Why am I so happy I could die?
There were no [A]words to say goodbye
The ground just opened wide and ate you [D]whole
[A]
[A] Figured they'd figure out soon
[A]
They'd never put a man on the moon
And [D]no one knows the truth
Pete [C#m]Rose and Babe [D]Ruth
[A] What if you got there to see
[A]
That it's not what you believed?
No blinding [D]lights or smiling teeth
I'd tell you you were [C#m]wrong all along
You'd [D]tell me that you hate me
[D] But what if I was the problem the whole [E]time?
Well, I'd beg for[A]giveness and oblige
The ground just opened wide and ate me [D]whole
[D] E
Why am I so happy I could die?
There were no [A]words to say goodbye
The ground just opened wide and ate you [D]whole
[D] I'm always looking for the [E]answers and wondering why
The [A]rules were ever made for us if [G#m]we never abide
[D] I'm always looking for the [E]answers and wondering why
The [A]rules were ever made for us if [G#m]we never abide
[D] I'm always looking for the [E]answers and wondering why
The [A]rules were ever made for us if [G#m]we never abide
[D] I'm always looking for the [E]answers and wondering why
The [A]rules were ever made for us if [G#m]we never abide
[D] But what if I was the [A]problem the whole [E]time?
Well, I'd beg for[F#m]giveness and oblige
The [A]ground just opened wide and ate me [D]whole
[D] A E
Why am I so happy I could die?
Well, here were no [F#m]words to say goodbye
And the [A]ground just opened wide [D]
