G Am C D I'm looking on the bright side, but I still don't see the light G Am C D Why are friends so hard to find on Wednesday night? G Am C D I got a ten pound note in my pocket, that'll never find its way back home. G C G And you thought I'd be lonely when you'd gone. G Am C D Discipline is a shelter, the punishment's my home G Am C D Built on sticks and stones and now brittle bones G Am C D I'm just a slip of a thing and now I'm on the slide G C G C-D-Am And I get so confused on my own Am C G Barmaids beware Am C G D Sweet-stout style and whiskey-drunk flair CHORUS G Bm C D I'm drinking the wishing well dry, and collecting the coins G C D And my cup's brimming over with bliss G Bm C Am Seems that when my throat gets dry my words get wry G C D G And I raise my glass like a fist, and every sip's a kiss You used to say my secrets were safe, and that I had no need to lock them away But I could kick myself to death for leaving you the key, and now I know what security means to me Hard to get a hold of what it means to me And it's hard to get out of the gutter when it's raining feet and every helping hand's a fist CHORUS SOLO (I know it starts on Am, I think it's:: Am C G, Am C G D, C G C G C Am C D.....) G G* But hey where will I go, and now that you have gone........ Ending: G - Bm - G G* - For the end, I switch back and forth on a barred G from regular to 335533, which sounds great. There it is. The intro is wrong, I just put what I like to play. Really fun to play around with a slide on this, and two people make it even more fun. I usually play the chords barred during the chrous; it leaves the refrain twangy, and keeps the chorus full. Any probelms? gels@badlands.nodak.edu Peace, music, etc. --==Dave Gels UND "You don't want to die, but the living gets you down." -Matthew Sweet
