Chords

From "Let Your Dim Light Shine" Transcribed by Bryan Pero ([email protected]) Okay, this is a pretty easy song. There are two guitars playing at most times. Gtr. 1 (Dave Pirener) plays first position chords, while Gtr. 2 (Dan Murphy) plays barre chords. On the verses hit a D chord once then palm mute it and strum. Then when you play G, upstroke it once. [Verse I]
D                                                             G
She walks into the outhouse, the cold night breathes into her face

D                                                                G
The flies are standing still now, the moon it spills through the place
[Chorus I]
               C                   G          D
And she starts wondering what it's like to be liked by everyone, and

    C         G      D                     C             G
And like everyone be just like anyone, who just wants to be so

D                 D
Just like anyone, just like anyone
[Verse II]
D                                                                 G
She reaches through the darkness, her fingers touch the porcelain seat

D                                                                 G
She spins and pulls her pants down, the cold air holds her like a thief
[Chorus II]
               C                   G             D
And she starts wondering what they mean, do they just mean to be mean

    C                  G              D
And thinking about the scene, do they just want to be seen

C          G        D                 D
Try not to seem so, Just like anyone, Just like anyone

D (w/Bridge Riff)                                          G
The door comes screeching open, she walks into the evening air

D
She disappears in the darkness all that's left is the faint smell

       G
of her hair, she's done

C                   G          D                     C         G
Wondering what it's like to be liked by everyone and like everyone

   D                    C             G     D
be just like anyone and just wants to be so just like anyone

    C                   G             D
And wondering what they mean, do they just mean to be mean,

    C                  G              D
And thinking about the scene, do they just want to be seen

C          G       D                 C         G   D
Try not to seem so just like anyone (just like anyone)

                  C         G  D     D
Just like anyone (just like anyone)  Just like anyone

D                 D
Just like anyone, Just like anyone
