Madder Rose--"I Almost Lost My Mind"
from the wonderful album you probably don't own Panic On
These lyrics may be wrong, but you get the idea :)
Opening Riff (these are the notes to it, even though they use harmonics
on the record, this will be much easier for most of you
-3------------------0---2---0----------|
-0---0-0------------0------------------|
-0-------0----------0------------------| play twice
-0-0----------------2------------------| then lyrics start

(during the chorus after each Em chord, hammer on the 2nd finger on the
high E string)
If I just hang around outside
I may just see you passing by
And spend another sleepless night
Looking for the nerve to face you
And I can only think of one thing
I can only think of one thing
(these chords just pick them not one note at a time, whatever works for you)
It comes from way inside, to let you know that I
See you crying all the time, and you'll cry
(hold)
See you crying all the time, I almost lost my mind
play the riff twice again
If I could summon up the will
To call you up and talk until
I'd get bedrezzled (??) from the chill
It's always left me shaking
And I can only think of one thing
I can only think of one thing
It comes from way inside, to let you know that I
See you crying all the time, and you'll cry
(hold)
See you crying all the time, I almost lost my mind
then there's a solo, where I usually play the opening riff again, and the
G and Em chords or something. I'm too lazy to figure out the solo though,
since I just have an acoustic guitar and don't really like to play them :)
the song ends on Em

They look down from the underground at everyone down below." -Supergrass
