CRAZY GAME (Emily Saliers)
--------------------------
* These are the chords as they are written in the sheet music, although I find
it much, much easier to play this song in D (instead of E). To play in D,
just play all the chords as if they were a whole step lower (e.g., B7 becomes
A7), and capo up two frets. Of course, it doesn't sound quite right that
way, but at least it's humanly possible.
* |'s separate measures.
* If there are two chords in one measure, each chord is half the measure,
save for the 2nd-to-last measure in the chorus (the A6 and Am6 are quarters),
and the 2nd-to-last measure of the song (the B7 and B7+5 are quarters).
B7(4) B7(-9+5) | Emaj9 | E9 | F#m9/E | Fmaj7 | E | C#7+5 | F#m9 | B7 B7+5 |
[intro]
| Emaj9 | Bm9/E | A6 | FM7+11 |
Crazy game, I never should have started to play; But now you couldn't tear me
| E | C#7-9+5 | F#m9 | B B+ |
away; Love is sweet, sweet baby, so good to you, and so bad; And I
| Emaj9 | Bm9/E | A6 | FM7+11 |
swear, the situation's clear before my eyes; Confusion wants to break me & it
| E | C#7-9+5 | F#m9 | B9 |
tries; I've been a little bit stronger from the start; Listen to my heart
| Amaj7 | Am6 |
'Cause if you're ever believing I'm thinking of leaving, look to the
| G#m7 | C#7 |
moon, 'cause it's a fact: she may go wandering
| F#m7 G#m7 | Amaj7 A/B |
about, but she always comes shining back, and it's true
| Amaj9 G#m7 | F#7 A6 Am6 |
I'll wait for you
| E | C#7+9+5 | F#m9 | B7 B7+5 |
[instrumental]
You dry your tears, don't be thinking grey is here to stay
Sometimes everything's in the way
You're wanting to look at it, turn your view around, dry your eyes
Eyes like yours should carry a smile, I haven't seen them sparkle in a while
Give it one more try, dry your eyes
'Cause if you're ever believing I'm thinking of leaving
Look to the moon, 'cause it's a fact
She may go wandering about, but she always comes shining back, and it's true
I'll wait for you
| E | C#7+9+5 | Em9 B7 B7+5 | Emaj9 .
[instrumental]

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 INDIGO GIRLS 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.
