This is a very simple song to play. There's only a few basic chords
and that is: /C /G /Am/F,G/ It's just to play these chords the whole
song through.
Good luck!
{C}Wondering
Have I {G}given up dreaming?
Come {Am}down from the ceiling
I {F}won't do that a{G}gain
{C}Thinking
My misspent {G}history
Mistakes to {Am}teach me
I {F}won't do that a{G}gain
{C}Dreams I kept as a {G}child
Kept me quiet and hypnot{Am}ised
Cooked away my valent{F}ines
Served my{G}self up every {C}night
Couldn't see me for the {G}trees
And all that hallmark poetr{Am}y
{F}I'm {G}not the girl i used to {C}be
{G}I'm not the girl i used to {Am}be {F}{G}
Wondering
Have I given up dreaming?
Come down from the ceiling
I won't do that again
Thinking
My misspent history
Mistakes to teach me
I won't do that again
Trying to break the family ties
Chocolate hearts and tacky lies
Heard a thousand crappy lines
And i believed the every time
So I beg to disagree
Love's not taking all of me
I'm not the girl I used to be
I'm not the girl I used to be
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 CHUMBAWAMBA 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.
