Chords

Okay, these are the EXACT RIGHT CHORDS, and you can play them exactly this way if you want. Being that I'm using a ukulele, I play it differently because some of these chords don't even exist in ukulele world. I don't know how my simplified version would sound on a guitar, but you can give it a shot. My simplified chords: Em7 = Em Em7/B = B Em7/A = Em Em7/G = Em Em/G = G Em7/D = D D/F# = D The simplification probably won't work on a guitar, but maybe it will. Anyway, here is the COMPLETE AND UNSIMPLIFIED VERSION OF THE SONG TUNE YOUR GUITAR DOWN A SEMITONE (though I don't, and it sounds fine.) Intro: Em7 - Em7 - Em7/B - Em7/B - Em7/A - Em7/A - Em/G - Em/D
Em7
I know what you want

         Em7/B
I wanna take you to a midnight show tonight

   Em7
If you can keep a secret

           Em7/B
I've got a blanket in the backseat on my mind,

      C                 Bm               Em7
And a little place that sits beneath the sky.

    C                  Bm
She turned her face to speak,

           D 
But no one heard her cry.
-mute------- Em7 Em7/B Drive faster, boy-----
             Em7/A Em/G  Em7/D
Drive faster, boy-----Yeah--

Em7
I know there's a hope.

                 Em7/B
There's too many people trying to help me cope.

             Em7
You've got a real short skirt,

        Em7/B
I wanna look up, look up, look up, yeah, yeah.

Em7
We were just in time,

              Em7/B
Let me take a little more off your mind.

        Em7
There's something in my head, 
Somewhere in the back said:
Em7/B
We were just a good thing, we were such a good thing.

C            Bm           Em7
Make it go away without a word.

    C                 Bm
But promise me you'll stay,

              D
and fix these things I've hurt.
-mute strings----- Em7 Em7/B Oh make it go away, oh----.
             Em7/G Em/G   Em7/D
Drive faster, boy----, yeah, oh no,
Solo: Em7 - Em7 - Em7/B - Em7/B - Em7/A - Em7/A - Em/G - Em/D
  C                   Bm            Em7
A crashing tide can't hide a guilty girl.

     C                   Bm                   Em7
With jealous hearts that start with gloss and curls.

  C              Bm                  Am
I took my baby's breath, beneath the chandelier.

            G
Of stars in atmosphere,

                D/F#       D                Em7  Em7/B
And watched her disappear, into the midnight show----

        Em7/A                     Em/G        Em7/D
A-faster, a-faster, a-faster, a-faster, faster, a-faster,

   Em7
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no,

Em7/B
No, no, no, no, no.

   Em7/A
If you can keep a secret,

     Em/G            Em7/D             Em7 - Em7/B - Em7/A
Well baby I can keep, you can keep a secret.

  Em/G                    Em7/D           Em7 - Em7/B
If you can keep a secret, I can keep a secret.

   Em7/A
If you can keep a secret,

     Em/G             Em7/D             Em7
Well baby I can keep, you can keep a secret.
