Shayanni's Surprise
By Kara's Flowers
Tabbed by Joe Chammas
It's not perfect, but it sounds pretty good. If something doesn't sound right it should
easy to just mess around and listen to the song to find the right chord.
Intro: E G#m A slide up to B
E G#m A slide up to B slide down from E*
Verse:
ELike (022100@1)a sunrise happening at three AM
E7On (020130@1)a walk in the middle of the night
G#mYou (133111@4)may not have a clue
C#mIt's (x13321@4)something you just knew
A7 (x02020@1) BAnd (x2444x@1)something you were always dreaming of
EBut (022100@1)tip your hat towards the sky
And stand back while your tears get dry
AHappiness (x02220@1)is always on the move
G#mYou (133111@4)can wonder if it's warm inside
C#mStay (x13321@4)out till your feet get tired
A (x02220@1) EWatch (022100@1)out for that Shayanni's Surprise
Chorus:
E (022100@1) G# (xx1114@1) BJust (x2444x@1)because we're waiting for the lottery
E (022100@1) G# (xx1114@1) BDoesn't (x2444x@1)mean that we can live our lives for free
AAnd (x02220@1)I've seen illusions
GBut (320003@1)Shayanni's Surprise
F#Got (244322@1)me right behind the eyes
(It's the same deal for verse 2 and there's the break after the second chorus)
Verse 2
Even in the midst of all of life's unpleasant gifts
Someone out there's got it twice as bad
So thank your lucky stars
And take a look at who you are
And never waste another day again
Pin a note upon your sleeve and read it out before you leave
'Cause everybody loves a valentine
But you know just as well as I
That we are all in pantomime
Waiting for our Shayanni's Surprise
Chorus
Just because we're waiting for the lottery
Doesn't mean that we can live our lives for free
I've seen illusions
But Shayanni's Surprise
Got me right behind the eyes
Break
The whole break just repeats these four chords:
E F# G#m F#m
Hoo hoo
Hoo hoo
Hoo hoo
Hoo hoo hoo
Hoo hoo
Chorus
Just because we're waiting for the lottery
Doesn't mean that we can live our lives for free
I've seen illusions
But Shayanni's Surprise
Got me right behind the eyes
