"Own True Way"(Doyle/McCann/Trapper) From "Sea of No Cares" Capo fifth fret, and the best way to replicate the recurring melody on your guitar is to (surprise!)mess about with the D shape, using hammer-ons to create the Sus4,sus2 and 5th shapes. Intro: D D Dsus4|D Dsus2 D|D D Dsus4|D Dsus2 D|D5 D D|D Dsus2|Dsus4 D

    D
 It takes a lot to get to the top

       G
 And a little just to fall off quick

       A                          D
 And I think I've seen you here before

Sometimes you fly so high So fast it makes you sick You won the battle lost the war pre-chorus:

        Em               D
 But I don't mind if you say

 G
 Every time you talk to me

 A
 Every time we talk

Chorus:

    D        A
 We came, we saw

    G             D
 We conquered and crumbled

 Bm     A        G
 In our own true way

    D         A
 We loved, we fought

    G             D
 We rocked and we tumbled

 Bm     A        D
 In our own true way

Intro Well I believe in brotherhood And the good of all mankind Though I admit it's hard to find But if you want to talk just come and knock It don't matter what the time Solitude is no friend of mine And I don't mind if you say Every time you talk to me Every time we talk [Chorus] I don't mind It's hard to be from a rock in the sea Livin' in a big steel town Finding unfamiliar faces all around You heard 'em tell stupid jokes You heard 'em laugh everytime you spoke But you don't let nobody put you down But I don't mind if you say Every time you talk to me Every time you talk to me Every time we talk Chorus, intro with ad lib: In our own true way... And I don't mind... If you say...
