New Lover Josh Ritter
Variation from the other chord progression that he plays doing just accoustic solo.
Watched a pretty good video with good camera work ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?
v=noqSmgmsiaM ) that showed this chord progression while he was playing along with Zach
on a second guitar - doing the magic that Zach does.
If someone out there can transcribe what he's doing, please post it.
Capo 4th fret.
Chords:
C (332010)
Em (022000)
[F]G [(133211)](320003)
Gsus (320013)
Intro (or some variation on this)
[C] [G] [F]
[C] [Em] [Am]
[C] [F] [G] [Gsus] [G] [Gsus]
I can't pre[C]tend that all is [Em]well, it's like I'm[F] haunted by a[G] ghost
There are [C]times I cannot [Em]speak your name for the[F] catchin' in my[G] throat,
There are [C]things I will not [Em]sing for the[F] sting of sour[G] notes.
I feel li[C]ke a miser, I fee[Em]l low and mean[F] [G]
For accus[C]ing you of steali[Em]n' what I offered y[F]ou for free.[G]
Still it [C]beggars the belie[Em]f sometimes what th[F]ieves we love[G]rs be.
I don't k[C]now who you're wi[Em]th these days, migh[F]t be with som[G]eone new
And if yo[C]u are, I hope he [Em]treats you like a l[F]over ought to[G] do.
But who[C]ever makes you ha[Em]ppy, it don't reall[F]y matter who[G]
I've go[C]t a new lover now[Em], I hope you've got[F] a lover too.[G]
Praise [C]the water under b[Em]ridges, the time th[F]ey say will h[G]eal
Praise [C]the fonder, that [Em]still grows on the [F]absent heart [G]in fields
Praise [C]be to this pain t[Em]hese days it's all [F]I seem to fee[G]l.
Perhaps[C] the fault was mi[Em]ne[F] [G]
Perhaps[C] I just ignored w[Em]ho you're always go[F]nna be,[G]
Instead[C] of who I took yo[Em]u for.[F] [G]
I've be[C]en treated worse [Em]it's true, still I [F]expected more[G].
But I w[C]ill not chase you[Em]r shadow as you go [F]from room to [G]room,
Droppin[C]' handkerchiefs a[Em]nd daggers, smokin'[F] guns and oth[G]er clues
For wha[C]t someone did wit[Em]h someone and who d[F]id what to wh[G]o.
I've go[C]t a new lover now[Em], I hope you've got[F] a lover too.[G]
I got [C]a new lover now, [Em]I know that she's n[F]ot mine,[G]
And I o[C]nly want to hold [Em]her, I don't need t[F]o read her mi[G]nd,
And she[C] only looks like [Em]you when she's in a[F] certain ligh[G]t.
I got a[C] new lover now, s[Em]he knows just what [F]I need.[G]
When I [C]wake up in the ni[Em]ght, she can read m[F]e back my dre[G]ams,
And she[C] loves them, thou[Em]gh she never needs [F]to tell me wh[G]at they mean.
I hope [C]you've got a love[Em]r now, hope you've [F]got somebody [G]who
Can giv[C]e you what you ne[Em]ed like I couldn't [F]seem to do.[G]
But if [C]you're sad and yo[Em]u are lonesome and [F]you've got no[G]body true,
I'd be [C]lying if I said t[Em]hat didn't make me [F]happy too.[G]
I'd be [C]lying if I said t[Em]hat didn't make me [F]happy too.[G]
