all my friends
counting crows
Dm Bb
Thought I might get a rocket ride
F C
When I was a child but it was a lie
Dm Bb A
That I told myself when I needed something good
Dm Bb
At seventeen, had a better dream.
F C
Now I'm thirty-three and it isn't me
Dm Bb A
But I'd think of something better if I could
---
CHORUS:
Bb Am Dm-C-Am-G
All my friends and lovers leave me behind
Bb F A
I'm still looking for a girl
Bb Am Dm-C-Am-G
One way or another, I'm just hoping to find
Bb
A way...
F Bb F
To put my feet out in the world
---
Dm Bb
Caught some grief from a falling leaf
F C
As she tumbled down to the dirty ground
Dm Bb A
Said I should have put her back there if I could
Dm Bb
But everyone needs a better day
F C
And I'm trying to find me a better way
Dm Bb A
To get from the things I do to the things I should
---
CHORUS:
Bb Am Dm-C-Am-G
All my friends and lovers leave me alone
Bb F A
To try to have a little fun
Bb Am Dm-C-Am-G
One way or another I just wish I had known
Bb F Bb F
To go out walking in the sun
Bb F Ab Bb
And find out if you were the one...
Ab Bb
Does it make you wanna come a little closer now?
Ab Bb
And did you wanna dance with me?
Ab Bb
Did you wanna hum a little harder now?
Am Bb
Can you see her waiting there?
Am Bb
Can you see her? Because I'm almost there
Am Bb
Can you see her waiting there for someone
F Bb F Bb
like me?

Dm Bb
All you want is a beauty queen
F C
Not a superstar but everybody's dream machine
Dm Bb A
All you want is a place to lay your head
Dm Bb
You go to sleep dreaming how you would
F C
Be a different kind if you thought you could
Dm Bb A
But you come awake the way you are instead
---
CHORUS:
Bb Am Dm-C-Am-G
All my friends and lovers shine like the sun
Bb F A
I just turn and walk away
Bb Am Dm-C-Am-G
One way or another, I'm not coming undone
Bb F Bb
I'm just waiting for the day
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 COUNTING CROWS 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.
