Chords

The strumming pattern for this song is syncopated, but it isn’t too difficult. If you to the song you’ll get it. Also, | these lines mean one bar |. Whenever you play a G, you have to play it two different ways in quick succession: first open G chord with a D on the B string, then with an open B on the B string. Again, to the song and you’ll hear it.

Verse 1:
       C     Cmaj7  C7
Well I wish I had a parachute

          F               G
Cause I'm falling bad for you

       C     Cmaj7  C7
I can see the ground approaching now

         F               G
But I'm not sure what to do

  Am             G
I feel like the piñata

          F               G
Won't you take a swing at me

             Am                   G
If you could just crack the shell open

          F              G
I think inside you would find something sweet
The chords are the same for the next two verses. Verse 2: Well I hear you like a hunter now Your footsteps in the leaves And I would gladly leave my hiding place Yes I'm hoping to be seen So let your arrow fly and sing I'm well within your aim Lay your traps for a thousand miles And please don't let me escape Verse 3: Winter came to Omaha It left us looking like a bride A million perfect snowflakes now And no two are alike So it's hard for me imagining The flaws in this design I know debris, it covers everything And still I am in love with this life
