I Didnt Understand Tab

by Elliott Smith


Alright, so this isn't in the key of the original, but this one sounds really good. In
you can move your capo almost anywhere on the neck and this tune will sound really pretty.

Capo 3rd Fret

VERSE 1

                                              
Thought you'd be looking for the next in line to love

                            
Then ignore, put out, and put away


                                              
And so you'd soon be leaving me alone like I'm supposed to be

                         
Tonight tomorrow and every day

                                   
 There's nothing here that you'll miss

                                         
I can guarantee you this is a cloud of smoke

                  
Trying to occupy space

                                      
What a fucking joke, what a fucking joke.


VERSE 2

                                            
 I waited for a bus to separate the both of us

                              
and take me off far away from you

                                                     
Cus my feelings never change a bit, I always feel like shit

                                       
I don't know why, I guess that I just do

                            
 You once talked to me about love

                                         
 You painted pictures of, a never never land

                           
I could've gone to that place,

                                        
               
 But I didn't understand, I didn't understand, I didn't understand

I hope that helped. The rhythm can get kind of tricky, and I tried to place the letters
the chords as close to the words they hit on as possible.

My first tab, enjoy : )
