Chords
It's actually originally tabbed by an Unregistered person, but I found that his
chords seemed to sound a bit funny and I made some changes to it that seemed to
sound fine. There's a part missing near the end, but generally it works fine to my ears
C Am The bar closes early on the Sabbath day F G So me and my kid we hit the park to play C Am Then it'd start to rain so we'd walk home again F He asked why he was born G I don't know what to say C Am I don't feel guilty and I don't feel sad F G This mother fucking life is the best he's had C Am I said I've been there sonny and it ain't that bad F G I took my hits from the shits back when I was a lad
Chorus:
F Am So long ago and even though I tried C G F I couldn't make him see the life he had cast in front of me Am C G And even though I cried I couldn't make him be the very thing I needed
(Same chord progression of
C Am F G) His mother'd make a scene when I come home late
She look like she's dying but she's twenty eight
I never loved that whore I never will no more
Except for a month back in '84
The jam was playing and my heart stood still gazing at a shadow on the window sill
Chorus: (Chord progression of
F Am C G) So long ago and even though I tried I couldn't make her see I wasn't quite the man
she thought I'd be
And even though I cried I couldn't make her be the very thing I needed
And even though I tried I couldn't make her see I wasn't quite the man she thought I'd be
And even though I cried I couldn't make her be the very thing I needed
(This is the part I've not figured out)
Could she be the very thing I needed?
Could she be the very thing
the very thing
C G Push yourself away from your one best friend Am F Who's going to love you when you reach the end?
Who will?
Who will?
