This song comes from the One Foot in the Grave album on K records.
If you don't have it, I would highly recomend its immediate purchase.

These chords are played by hitting the lowest note first followed by a
few strums, and that pattern is repeated. Your best bet is to listen to
the CD for the exact rhythm. Also, there may be some pulloffs/hammerons
around the A chord (Perhaps a second guitar?). Anyway, this is pretty
much it. Any corrections or additions will be greatly appreciated.

PAINTED EYELIDS
By Beck
Tabbed by Zak Watson

Intro: D

D A
I wake up and look upon your painted eyelids
G F
The world is your oyster and the trashbags are your kids
D A
The ceiling is invisible there's a bird sinkin through the sky
G F
and every hour that passes is teachin me how to cry

Chorus(kind of):
A7 D
Cuz it's lonely here in the ugly part of town
A7 D
the buildings are all vacant and the telephones are down
D A
There's a police siren singin like a tiger with no skin
G F
the sewer drain is glowin and I don't know what state I'm in
D A
And the river is on fire and there's chemicals and debris
G F
All the roads are blocked off it's just too hard to see
A7 D
So cancel my appointment and set up a whole new show
A7 D
'Cuz I'm in need of a good hot meal and a life to call my own
D-A-G-F
(Harmonica solo over verse chords 1x)
D A
So get me a plate of money and get me a blanket and a chair
G F
The limitations are limitless they're floating through the air
A7 D
'Cuz it's real and it's true the things I see in you
A7 D
And there's nothin that I wouldn't talk about with the clearest

dream that ever drifted by...

Fade on verse chords with harmonica and sounds


Hope you enjoy it

-Zak Watson
