When I saw Blake play this live, he mostly used bar chords high up the neck (which is
he gets that sound on the record), but I prefer using "normal" (read: open) chords where
- if only for the reason it makes it easier to sing along with. Use whatever works best for you.
Intro:
Pull the ripchord
The ship has lost its sail
Your momma's gotta new man
Your daddy always fails
And you're eaten again at them
Cause nobody loves you
Even fancy things
Have finally lost their charm
Wine and diamond rings
That never get you anymore
You're sleepin again alone
Cause nobody loves you
Ohh, oh oh oh
They should have seen you, shoulda known you
(play it x02223)
Shoulda known what it was like to be you
So come on kid
Look at what you did
I don't know if you meant it
But you did yourself in
And I was even havin' a good day
When I found out we'd lost you
(play another verse)
So I, I, I
oh, oh, oh....
Ohh, oh oh oh
It was in the singin' and the strummin'
Oh man I even saw it comin'
Barred G - A slide
D (best played barred; x57775)
