Broken Hearts And Painted Nails
-------------------------------

Artist: Steve Poltz
Taken from: One Left Shoe album
Transcribed by: Rok Osojnik (Rok.Osojnik@siol.net)

Chords used:       For better reading I splitted too long lyrics lines.
   EADGBe          Those letters that are written UPPERCASE are on the proper
G  320033          spot exactly above the according tone.
D  XX0232          This transcription is only my interpretation of the song
C  X32010          and it's very likely to have errors. If you discover them
Am X02210          then plese don't hesitate to notify me.

      I'm staring at the phone
                        In my old motel
                                   tonIght

B-----1---------1-|-----3-----------|     (now start playing the chords
G-----------0-----|---2---2---2-----|      and add some fingerpicks for
D---2---0---------|-0---------------|      better sound - listen to
A-3---------------|-----------------|      the song for details)
E-----------------|-----------------|

G                         C      G
  I could just watch you seriously
           C       G        Am
  like a science project - curiously
D                      C       G
  all alone, I am the walking dead
             C        G       Am
  would you soothe my aching head, (come on)
C           G       Am
  soothe my aching head


       (Now play the same fingerpicks as intro. The second guitar plays
        solo over this - if anyone is able to transcribe it then please
        send it to me)
