Go On Yourself - Aaron Wright
from the album: Behold The Pale Horse

If you put a capo on fret 2 and play it all 2 semitones down it's easier to
do open chords but the intonation's so terrible on my guitar i have to play
barre chords. The auto transcribe at the top right should do it for you. If i've 
made any lyric errors please comment
          E                       B
There's a simple explanation  for those who refuse to win,
          A                      C#m     
There's a carnival collector who just won't let me in,
          F#m                                         A
There's a silence beneath her street light, there's a whisper in the wind
            F#m              A                F#m (sliding up to A)
you took me in,  you took me in, you took me in  
           B          E      A B
don't know where i've been


          E                                     B
There's a carpenter in your classroom he's been screaming at the scribe,
           A                       C'm
There's an undeserving teacher who noone knew had died
       F#m                                     A
well a poet, who's friend was a painter, yet a hero was left unsung
             F#m                A               F#m (sliding up to A)
They took me in,  they took me in, they took me in 
           B          E     A B
don't know where i've been

Chorus:

E 
Half of the time you know you're asking why,
thinking the things that don't feel quite right
   A                 E            A  B
go on yourself,   go on yourself 
E
Half of the nights you know we sleep ok 
so think of the things I don't know quite what to say
   A                 B                    E
go on yourself,   go on              yourself 


E                                      B
Never claimed to see the future well I barely had a past
      A                                   C#m
so we went to see a psychic she said that nothing really lasts
             F#m                          A
so i'll stop pokin' at them coals now i'm off to start a fire
            F#m              A               F#m (sliding up to A)
you took me in,  you took me in, you took me in
           B          E      A B
don't know where i've been
