Subject: Re: TAB: Edie Brickell - He Said

After seeing many requests for Edie Brickell I decided to tab out my favorite Edie song. I?m working on a 
others and will post them as soon as I get done.
Hope you enjoy and let me know any corrections. Jason

Artist: Edie Brickell
Song: He Said
Album: Ghost of a Dog

Intro: Dsus4 D Dsus4 D A G (2x) Riff (4x)

Dus  D    Dsus4  D     A    G
Just before the lights went out
Dus  D    Dsus4  D     A    G
we sat up and talked about
Dus  D    Dsus4  D     A    G
all the things that we would be
Dus  D    Dsus4  D     A    G
I just wanted him to be with me

Riff

Dus  D    Dsus4  D     A    G
but he had a mind of his own
Dus  D    Dsus4  D     A    G
and he did not mind being alone
Dus  D    Dsus4  D     A    G
left me there in my little world
Dus  D    Dsus4  D     A    G
left me there like a little girl

Chorus:
A   D      Em   G
he said, ?don?t get hung up;
A   D      Em   G
hang ups will get you down?
A   D      Em   G
he said, ?don?t look back;
A   D      Em   G
look up and then look around:

Dus  D    Dsus4  D     A    G
around that time I was feeling high
Dus  D    Dsus4  D     A    G
like I never had to try
Dus  D    Dsus4  D     A    G
to kick myself up out of bed
Dus  D    Dsus4  D     A    G
kick these worries out of my head

Chorus:
A   D      Em   G
he said ?it?s better this way;
A   D      Em   G
one day you?ll understand?
A   D      Em   G
he said, ?i?m leaving today?
A   D      Em   G
and he let go of my hand

Am       Em
I know that i?ll never see him again
Am       Em
not the way the same way I saw him then
Am       Em
I know that when I get back on my feet
Am       Em
I will walk away from misery

Riff

Dus  D    Dsus4  D     A    G
what do you say when it?s all been said
Dus  D    Dsus4  D     A    G
how do you feel when it?s all been felt
Dus  D    Dsus4  D     A    G
where do you go when it?s all gone
Dus  D    Dsus4  D     A    G
and you don?t care enough to carry on

Chorus:
A   D      Em   G
I say close your eyes,
A   D      Em   G
look down deep inside
A   D      Em   G
someone is there for you,
A   D      Em   G
someone who cares for you

Am       Em
I know it?s easier to say than do
Am       Em
easier to look away than see it through
Am       Em
I know it?s easier to think than feel
Am       Em
easier to make it up than make it real
Am       Em
it?s hard to love, it?s hard not to love

Am       Em (to end)

Riff:
