Chords

This is based on the chords that are found on blueguitar.info, a bible for all things related to Mark Kozelek and guitar playing. However this version is simplified and transposed to standard tuning. I like to hammer-on and hammer-off the 2nd fret of the D string when I play the C chord and the Cmaj7/E chord (essentially going from C to Cadd2 and Cmaj7/E to Cmaj9/E respectively) and to hammer-on and hammer-off the 2nd fret of the G string when I play the Fmaj7 chord (going between Fmaj7 and Fmaj7sus2). See chords below. C: x32010 Cmaj7/E: 022010 (= Em(b6)) Fmaj7: x33210 Fmaj7sus2: x33010 G6add11: 320010 Eb5: x688xxx D5: x577xxx C5: x355xxx Bb5: x133xxx F5: x81010xxx E5: x799xxx (Cadd2: x30010) (Cmaj9/E: 020010) (= Em7(b6)) [Intro] C Cmaj7/E Fmaj7sus2 [Verse]
C              Cmaj7/E              Fmaj7sus2
a rare and blistering sun shines down on Grace Cathedral Park

C              Cmaj7/E              Fmaj7sus2
there with you I fear the time when air gets dark

C              Cmaj7/E              Fmaj7sus2
you know I don't spend days like

C              Cmaj7/E              Fmaj7sus2
this caught up in lost times of youth that iImiss
[Chorus]
Fmaj7                             Am
I can almost hear rollercoasters

       Fmaj7               Am      Cmaj7/E
see sailboats in the sea

Fmaj7                  Am                       Fmaj7
hear noise and screaming weaving in and out of

      G6add11
happy music box sounds
[Bridge]
Eb5              D5
But here on the ground

          C5            Bb5  F5 E5
we're so far away from that

Eb5           D5      C5  Bb5
time turned older now
[Verse]
C                       Cmaj7/E
We walked down the hill

Fmaj7sus2
I feel the coming on of the fading sun

C                       Cmaj7/E
and I know for sure

Fmaj7sus2
that you'll never be the one

C                       Cmaj7/E
it's the forbidden moment that we live

 Fmaj7sus2
that fires our sad escape

C                       Cmaj7/E
and holds passion more than

Fmaj7sus2
words can say
[Chorus]
Fmaj7                          Am
tell me why are you like this

 Fmaj7                  Am      Cmaj7/E
are you the same with anyone?

Fmaj7                      Am
save me from my sickness and tell me

 Fmaj7                  Am      Cmaj7/E
why do you treat me like?

Fmaj7                          Am
tell me why are you like this

 Fmaj7                  Am      Cmaj7/E
are you the same with anyone?

Fmaj7                                Am
save me from my sickness and tell me

Fmaj7
why are you like this

G6add11
why are you like this
[Outro] C Cmaj7/E Fmaj7sus2 Eb5 D5 C5
