Smokin From Shootin Tab

by My Morning Jacket


Standard Tuning. I don't get why this song isn't up anywhere yet... here ya go

                                   
Have you had enough excitement now, more than you ever did

                                                  
You never wanted to be treated like a woman, You maintained you was just a kid
                                                
Well atleast you were of age my dear these days kids they grow so fast
                                                                                        
                                             
You never wanted to be committed to the present You're too busy believing in the past, oh

                          
Who then was your savior? Who then was your friend ?
                                           
Who is now committed to the present?  Is it someone that exists
                      
What is life in God? A perfect vision of the self?

                                               
I always thought we was dealing with one thing , now we are dealing with something else, oh

(Chorus)
                                                            
Do you see my smokin’ guns  they're smoking from a shootin', smoking from shootin'
                      
smokin' from shootin at nothing here
                                                         
     
Do you live your life on the road?  Yeah loosing that I'm loving Asking for nothing
                         
Runnin' from something that isn't there, oh

                       
Who makes my decisions? Who reads all your thoughts?
                           
What makes us how we are?  Think it through but science will resolve.
                                                  
Cumbaya my lord, come on row your boat ashore. The river is long, it is
       
cold, reaches the body but not the soul.

(Chorus)
                                                            
Do you see my smokin’ guns  they're smoking from a shootin', smoking from shootin'
                      
smokin' from shootin at nothing here
                                                         
     
Do you live your life on the road?  Yeah loosing that I'm loving Asking for nothing
                         
Runnin' from something that isn't there, oh

(Couldn't really figure out whats goin on in that last bridge but pretty sure it follows 
same pattern)
