1.
D - A / Bm G
I don't want to change your mind - I don't want to think about your mind
E A Bm E
they say love is blind - I don't think you're blind
You don't want to understand and I don't want to shake your father's hand
and walk in the sand and act like a man
Chorus:
G A Bm E
I get on the bus and ride past our stop - and though I'm late I can't get off
G A
I just can't bear to tell you some lies
|: D A :|
and narrow your eyes
narrow your eyes
2.
We'll take back everything we said - split up all the things and move ahead
forget how you said to split your side off the bed
Chorus:
I get on my bike and ride down our block
ride through the world thru the green lights
but when I think of all your advice
I narrow my eyes
narrow my eyes
Instrumental:
E - - -
Em A F#m B
Em A D -
(Repeat verse 1)
Em A F#m B
Now let's toast the sad cold fact our love's never coming back
Em A
and we'll race to the bottom of a glass
|: D A :|
So narrow your eyes
-E.M.
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 THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS 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.
