Nikorette Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band
This is a chord transcription from a promo copy of the album. The G chord Conor uses in
rhythm (which is what I'm transcribing) isn't a standard shape. I will site it as a G
it's a little different:
E|-3-|
A|-x-|
D|-0-|
G|-0-|
B|-3-|
e|-x-|
And on the D during the verses you should play around with the chord a bit, I like to
the G string up with the rhythm. Just listen to the song and you'll understand.
[D]
[D]I´m just trying to stay a[G] human[D] being
[D]Sitting in the sun eating [G]ice [D]cream
[D]Texting my friend about a [G]bad bad [D]dream
[D]Just had to tell someone who [G]knows [D]me
[D]But I don´t got time for this[G] cuckoo[D] clock
[D]And I don´t wanna go to your[G] Mason[D] Lodge
[D]There´s nothing more sad than a[G] lynching[D] mob
[D]Full of rational men who [G]believe in [D]God
[A]But nothing makes sense when the wave rolls through
[A]Nothing makes sense when the wave come [D]through
[A]So it could have been me or it could have been you
[A]Whatever is in me is whatever is in [D]you
[D]My neighbor dreams big because his [G]house is [D]small
[D]Says all he needs now is some [G]capital[D]
[D]It´s a pirate world it´s [G]a free-fo[D]r-all
[D]They take your bright ideas and they [G]make them [D]dull
[D]But everyone I see I think I´ve[G] known be[D]fore
[D] [G] [D]
[D]My love for them I [G]cannot ig[D]nore
[D]Like a human voice in a quiet morgue
[A]But I don´t want to wear no dead man´s suit
[A]I don´t want to wear no dead man´[D]s suit
[A]I don´t want to wait until the moon gets blue
[A]I don´t want to wait until the moon turns[D] blue
[Bm]Well it´s all just a[A] fix
[Bm]Just one little [A]hit
You'll hold it in[D]
[D]Sitting on a plane chewing [G]nicorett[D]e
[D]Paradise lost haven´t fo[G]und it y[D]et
[D]Will you talk me down if I [G]get up[D]set´
[D]Be the cool washcloth to my [G]fevered [D]head
[A]Because I don´t want to dream if it won´t come true
[A]I don´t want to dream if it don´t com[D]e true
[A]If there´s something in me well I guess it´s in you
[A]If there´s somewhere in me then I know it´s i[D]n you
Solo - Same verse progression.
[Bm]Well it´s all just a[A] fix
[Bm]Just one little [A]hit
You´re holding in[D]
[D]You´ll hold it in
[D]You´re holding in
[D]You´ll hold it in
[A]And I don´t want to dream if it won´t come true
[A]I don´t want to dream if it don´t com[D]e true
[A]If there´s something in me well I guess it´s in you
[A]If there´s something in me well I guess it´s in you
[E]Whatever happens to me it´s going to happen to you
[E]Whatever happens to me it´s going to happen to you
D x3
End on D
