STANDING STILL
Jewel
from the album “This Way” (2001)
transcribed by Steve Garner (s_garner@hotmail.com)
INTRO: Bm A D (x2)
VERSE:
Bm A D
Cutting through the darkest night are my two headlights
Bm A D
Trying to keep it clear but I’m losing it here to the twilight
Bm A D
There’s a dead end to my left, there’s a burning bush to my right
Bm A D
You aren’t in sight you aren’t in sight
CHORUS:
G Asus4 A G Asus4 A D
Do you want me like I want you or am I standing still
G Em7 A D
Beneath the darkened sky or am I standing still
G Em7 A Bm
With the scenery flying by or am I standing still
G Asus4 F#m Bm G Asus4 A
Out of the corner of my eye, was that you passing me by
VERSE:
Bm A D
Mothers on the stoop, boys in souped-up coupes on this hot summer night
Bm A D
Between fight and flight is the blind man’s sight and a choice that’s right
Bm A D
I roll the window down, feel like I’m gonna drown in this strange town
Bm A D
I feel broken down I feel broken down
CHORUS:
G Asus4 A G Asus4 A D
Do you need me like I need you or am I standing still
G Em7 A D
Beneath the darkened sky or am I standing still
G Em7 A Bm
With the scenery flying by or am I standing still
G Asus4 F#m Bm G Asus4 F#m
Out of the corner of my eye, was that you passing me by
N.C.
Sweet sorrow, he said call tomorrow
Sweet sorrow, he said call tomorrow
CHORUS:
Do you love me like I love you or am I standing still
Beneath the darkened sky or am I standing still
With the scenery flying by or am I standing still
Out of the corner of my eye, was that you passing me by
Oh you’re passing me by
Passing me by (do you want me) passing me by
Do you need me like I need you too
And do you want me like I want you
Are you passing me by
Or am I standing still....

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 JEWEL 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.
