    From This Oil Can

  • Artist:

    Dan Andriano

This is Dan Andriano's 'From This Oil Can', the 10th track from his album; 
'Hurricane Season'. The song is more simple than it sounds, but Dan plays a couple 
of embellishments on the C chord which sound confusing, these are basically going 
to be a few hammer-on's and a few hammer-off's on the B and high E strings. I'm 
sure you can work those out for yourself. Capo 3. Enjoy!

Intro: C Am F (Repeat x2)

C (x32010@1)                                     FSee (133211@1)a long time ago I didn't care so much
                     Am (x02210@1)Kinda hated myself so much,
                       F (133211@1)I watched my head just fly away
           C (x32010@1)                           F (133211@1)                     
Out to a place where the sun doesn't shine so much
Am (x02210@1)                                           
But I loved my bed so much
                         F (133211@1)            
Because while I'd sleep I'd seem okay
