CHICKEN WIRE


Capo 4

STUFF TO NOTE:
1) Some of the chord changes are way faster than others.  
I didn't really know how to express that, so you'll just have to listen.
2) Here's what I'm playing in the first couple lines of each verse.  
If you're not interested in the particulars, you can just play the A and D chords straight up.

A Riff: 

(Probably can't play this bit unless you barre the A chord 
with your first finger and keep it there through the whole riff)

B|-2-------------------------------------------|
G|-2-------------------------------------------|
D|-2------2h4p2--------------------------------|

D Riff: (Hold entire D chord and hit notes with pinky)

Darlin' I been nothing but just tired

Bound up wrists rubber bands and chicken wire

'Cos all you know is all I let you know

Spare me please these notes all paper teeth
Spare me please these subtle digs beneath
I have no idea
I have no idea
All I know is all you let me know

D
It's strange how all this apathy
A
Is all starting to get to me
E
The irony is killing me
E
The irony is ripping me
D
A part of it is how I know
A
About toils tearing to and fro
E
And I'm seeing them, I'm dodging them
E	F#m
But all I see is all I'm missing out

You did it then you tried to show me
How but I got vertigo
And now I'm trying not to choke
On hopes that turned out made of smoke
And I hate when other people sleep
It's like they're all laughing at me
All breathing slow and deep you know
And then I'm stuck there quiet and alone

F#m	D	C#m	A	E

All I need is all that no one knows

All I need is all that no one knows
D	A	D	C#m	Bm	E	A
All I need is all that no one knows
