Lyrics copied from Blue Rodeo website: www.bluerodeo.com
Key: G
Verse:
G
I want to know where my confidence went
C G
One day it all disappeared
G D/F# Em
And I'm lying in a hotel room miles away
C D
Voices next door in my ear
G
Day time is bad, nighttime worse
C G
Hope that I can get home soon
G D/F# Em
But the half-finished bottles of inspiration
C D
Lie like ghosts in my room
Am
I want to go
D
I know I can't stay
C
But I don't want to run
D
Feeling this way
Chorus:
Am Bm C D
Til I am myself
Am Bm C D
Til I am myself
Am Bm C D G
Til I am myself again
There's a seat on the corner I keep every night
Wait til the evening begins
I feel like a stranger from another world
But at least I'm living again
There are nights full of anger
Words that are thrown
Tempers that are shattered and thin
And the moments of magic
Are just too short
They're over before they begin
I know it's time
One big step
I can't go
I'm not ready yet
Til I am myself
Til I am myself
Til I am myself again
Instrumental:
D C G-C G, Em Bm C D, Am D G-D/F# Em, C C D D-C-D, G
I had a dream that my house was on fire
People laughed while it burned
I tried to run by my legs were numb
I had to wait til the feeling returned
I don't need a doctor to figure it out
I know what's passing me by
When I look in the mirror
Sometimes I see traces of some other guy
I want to go
I know I can't stay
But I don't want to run
Feeling this way
Til I am myself
Til I am myself
Til I am myself again
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official BLUE RODEO tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
