>From their album New Miserable Experience
Brought to you by Mike Schweisthal [mschweis@u.washington.edu]
Chords used: G:320003 C:X32010 D:XX0232 Em:022000 G/B:X20033 Am:X02210
Notes: I normally play this acoustic and without an instrumental
break/solo, so that`s how I have it laid out here...After the last two
choruses, I play the intro progression through once and end on G...a `|`
denotes a measure break...this is one of my faves off of NME...I hope
some others out there appreciate it, too...enjoy--Mike
INTRO: | G C | D G | Em | D |
| G C | D G | Em | D |
G C D G Em D
Time won`t stand by forever if I know it`s true
G C D G Em D
And I`ve learned not to say never or else I`ll seem the fool
G C D G Em D
Twenty-nine you`d think I`d know better...Living like a kid
G C D G Em D
When my lies may seem less than clever...is when I fall for it
C G/B Am D
CHORUS: Only time will tell if wishing wells will bring us anything
C G/B Am D
Or fade like scenes from childhood dreams--forgotten memories
| G C | D G | Em | D |
G C D G Em D
Some rides don`t have much of a finish...that`s the ride I took
G C D G Em D
Through good and bad and straight through indifference without a second look
G C D G Em D
There`s no intentions worthy of mention if we never try
G C D G Em D
So hang your hopes on rusted-out hinges...take `em for a ride
CHORUS
G C D G Em D
Some rides don`t have much of a finish...that`s the ride I took
G C D G Em D
Through good and bad and straight through indifference without a second look
CHORUS 2X
