TANGLED UP KITES


Capo 10th fret

C	C/B*	C	C/B	C	G

C
My fists have been grasping real tight
C/B
On ribbons that hang onto tangled up kites
F	C
For the notes that will fill
F	C
Up the saccharine still
C	G
Of the air here tonight.

C
But it feels like there's little to show
C/B
For time that you've spent on things no one can know
F	C
How the lines in your hands
F	C
Read like maps in the sand
C	G
With nowhere specific to go.

F	C/E**	C
If you let it, it all goes away
C/B	G
Hey-y-y
F	C/E**	C
If you let it, it all goes away

It's the strangest feeling at parts
When things are okay right when the rain starts
Like the dripping of stars
On the roof of my car
In the minutes just after dark.


But sometimes I think I'm losing sight
Of whatever it was that made everything right
But I lack violins
To make sorrows of sins
So I guess that it must be alright.

If you let it, it all goes away
Hey-y-y
If you let it, it all goes away

(Improvised break that would be difficult to notate)

F	C/E**	C
If you let it, it all goes away
C/B	G
Hey-y-y
F	C/E**	C
If you let it, it all goes away.

*Not actually a C/B, but it's something kind of close and the actual 
technical name is something crazy so I'm just gonna call it C/B. Regardless, I'm playing this:
