Chords
There's not a whole lot of harmonic content in this song, basically just the bassline and backing vocals
in the chorus. This leaves some room for interpretation. I chose to go with Eb5 because Ebm and Eb7 both work.
I suggest you try it out and go with what you like best. It's only in the outro, where an Eb7 is clearly
outlined.
[Intro]
Eb5 Ab (x4)
[Verse]
Eb5 Ab I'm coming over, see me down at the station by the lane with my hands in my pocket Eb5 Ab Jingling a wish coin that I stole from a fountain that was drownin' all the cares in the whole world Eb5 Ab When I get older, climbing up on the back porch fence just to see the dogs runnin' Eb5 Ab With a ring and a question and my shivering voice is singing through a crack in the window
[Chorus]
Eb5 Ab Na, na-na na-na na, I better go it alone Eb5 Ab Na, na-na na-na na, I better go it alone Eb5 Na, na-na na-na na
[Verse]
Ab Down on the corner, see me standing on a makeshift home with a dust storm comin' (na, na-na na-na na) Eb5 Ab In a long black shadow, pull a hammer from a coal mine down where your daddy was workin' Eb5 Ab Comb my hair back strike a match on the bathroom wall where my number is written Eb5 Ab Driving on the sidewalk, lookin' back at the sky, it's burning in my rear-view mirror
[Chorus]
Eb5 Ab Na, na-na na-na na, I better go it alone Eb5 Ab Na, na-na na-na na, I better go it alone Eb5 Na, na-na na-na na Eb5 Na, na-na na-na na Eb5 Na, na-na na-na na
[Instrumental]
Eb5 (x2)
[Verse]
Eb5 Ab I'm coming over, see you down at the station by the lane with my hands in my pocket Eb5 Ab Jingling a wish coin that I stole from a fountain that was drownin' all the cares in the whole world Eb5 Ab When I get older, climbing up on the back fence running with the dogs that I'm coming with Eb5 Ab With a ring and a question dime a dozen and a voice that was singing underneath the window
[Chorus]
Eb5 Ab Na, na-na na-na na, I better go it alone Eb5 Ab Na, na-na na-na na, I better go it alone x Eb5 Ab Na, na-na na-na na, I better go it alone 2:50 Eb5 Ab Na, na-na na-na na, I gotta go it alone, na, na-na na-na na Eb5 Ab I gotta go it alone, na, na-na na-na na Eb5 Ab Na, na-na na-na na, I better go it alone Eb5 Ab Na, na-na na-na na, Eb5 Ab Na, na-na na-na na, Eb5 Ab Na, na-na na-na na, Eb5 Ab Na, na-na na-na na, na, na-na na-na na
