Chords

When I saw Blake play this live, he mostly used bar chords high up the neck (which is he gets that sound on the record), but I prefer using "normal" (read: open) chords where - if only for the reason it makes it easier to sing along with. Use whatever works best for you. Intro: D F#7 Bm Bm7 G A D A
D
Pull the ripchord

    F#7
The ship has lost its sail

     Bm
Your momma's gotta new man

     Bm7
Your daddy always fails

           G              A
And you're eaten again at them

             D              A
Cause nobody loves you
Even fancy things Have finally lost their charm Wine and diamond rings That never get you anymore You're sleepin again alone Cause nobody loves you
G             F#
Ohh, oh oh oh

Bm7
They should have seen you, shoulda known you

        G                         A          A7 (play it x02223)
Shoulda known what it was like to be you
So come on kid Look at what you did I don't know if you meant it But you did yourself in And I was even havin' a good day When I found out we'd lost you (play another verse) So I, I, I oh, oh, oh.... Ohh, oh oh oh It was in the singin' and the strummin' Oh man I even saw it comin' D F#7 Bm Bm7
