                          GRACEFUL DANCING - Blue October
                            http://youtu.be/ObCEszvkGII
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~ I usually play this on capo 2 because it's a little easier for me. If you have
  trouble with the Bm and E7 barre chords, scroll down and view that version instead.

~ For reference, the E7 is 022434  
  You can see his fingering clearly in this video: http://youtu.be/JfMYN_k4Mts

==VERSE==  
A                                   Amaj7  
Describe the pain that choked your reality  
                  Bm  
It's all in your mind he said  
                 E7  
You have to go graceful dancing  
    A                                Amaj7  
I closed the door on the war I started last Halloween  
              Bm  
I'm gonna be fine again  
                 E7             Bm  
I have to keep graceful dancing, oh  
  
  
==CHORUS==  
Bm      A  
Here we are  
           Amaj7            Bm  
And you're a superstar on your own  
    Bm           A                          Amaj7  
And I'm looking over your shoulder, getting older  
               Bm  
And god only knows  
         A  
Here we are  
                Amaj7          Bm  
And you're a superstar on your own  
             E7  
Yeah here we are  
  
  
==VERSE==  
A                         
The sunset rains, like a bullet hole  
Amaj7  
Trees only seem for hanging  
               Bm  
The moon is a target range  
                E7  
And rivers seem only for drowning  
    A  
You ball the blame  
         Amaj7  
Then you starve to finish your painting  
                Bm  
It's gonna take time my friend  
                   E7  
You have to keep graceful dancing  
  
  
==CHORUS==  
Bm      A  
Here we are  
              Amaj7            Bm  
And you're a superstar on your own  
    Bm           A                          Amaj7  
And I'm looking over your shoulder, getting older  
               Bm  
And god only knows  
              A  
That here we are  
                Amaj7          Bm  
And you're a superstar on your own  
            E7  
Now here we are, yeah, yeah
