Bm
Bound so close, so painful to watch
Its wet and I can't get a draw
It's weird out here on the highway at 4 a.m.
G Bm
There's finally a lull that wakes us up
The path gets worn by the third tree line
Oh, what a beautiful stand
I get a bucket and a lie all ready for a guy
Who plows the land
G Bm
And refreshments for imaginary friends
G Bm
That are so clear and safe back here
E G
Undisguised, wide open
E G
Down the lining of the lane
E G E
I've already got an indication
G Bm
The information's not the same
The paper lies, I cover my eyes
I've lost my nerve for planning
I find it hard to think sometimes
G
To get excited about an excitable thing
Bm
Is harder than you'd think
And the path gets worn by the third tree line
Oh, what a beautiful stand
I get a bucket and a lie all ready for a guy
That I don't think will understand
G Bm
Refreshments for imaginary friends
G Bm
That are so clear and safe back here
Undisguised, wide open
Down the lining of the lane
While I've already got an indication
The information is not the same
I could've gone around the corner
G Bm
On my bike to rent a movie, but I didn't
I could've gone down to the water
G
When I felt the rumble inside
Bm
Cement ship goes by
G Bm
Inside...
Notes: Most of this song is just the Bm riff, with a G barre chord
thrown in the verse now and then, just strummed once and held. The
chorus uses normal (open) chords, and all the fancy stuff is done
by the lead guitar.
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 WEEPING TILE 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.
