Kevin Devine covers Elliott Smith's Between the Bars chords
Start Jamming...
Baby,
[F]
stay up all night, [C]
think of things [Bm]
[Am]
[C] you'll never see,
and [E] say as you [F] only may.
[Am] Drink up, [C] forget all about the pressure of days,
[Bm] do what I say [Am] and I'll make you okay.
[F] And drive them away, [C]
[E] [F]
[G] keep all [Am] the truth [G] in the fore,
that [Fm] you [G] don't want [D] around anymore.
You [F] think each [G] wish on [Am] the moon, and [C] you will.
[F]
[Fm]
[Am]
[C] Look at the stars, and kiss you again.
[B]
Beat you in the bars, when [Am] I'm seeing you,
with your [C]
hands in the air, waiting [E] to finally [F]
call.
[Am] Drink up one more time, [C] and I'll make you mine.
Keep you apart, [Bm] deep in my heart,
[Am] separate from the rest, [F] but I like you the best.
And drive [C]
[E] [F]
the
[G] people [A]
[C] you've been before,
that [Fm] you [E] don't want [D]
around anymore.
[F] They push, [G] they shove, [Am] and won't bend [C] to your will.
[F]
[Fm]
[N]
Thank you.
And he's just great for so many reasons, but [F] one of them is this.
[G] [A]
People you've [C] been before.
She would just go like this.
[N] [Fm] That's crazy.
[Eb]
You would just go like
[N] this, [F] again.
[G] [C]
[Eb] It's weird, like a progression.
Walk down like that, it also [F] brings these bass notes out.
[G]
[Am] People you've [C] been before,
[Ab] that you [G] don't want
[Gb] around anymore.
[F]
[N] It's like, [A] you walk up, [C]
[Ab] you walk down.
[F]
It just adds some [Abm] drama to it, but [F] it's very subtle.
[Gb] I think this music is so special [Bb] because it sounds like so many different [N] things.
Like you could listen to it, and you think you're listening to.
It sounds deceptively easy, because he plays such smooth, [Dm] pretty stuff.
It's really [D] hard.
[G] The chord [Gb] progressions are completely crazy.
[F] And when you start learning to play guitar, [E] or trying to play that way,
[B] and you start to see the things he's doing with his fingers,
and the things he's doing up [Db] here, [C] [Fm]
[Gb] it's really crazy.
It sounds [Am] really simple, [N] but it's really neat.
