I Was Born In Omaha by The Gloria Record
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning: Standard
I use two different G chords throughout the song. For the verses I use the open 320003
the two progression changes when it switches to G-Bm-A or the outro Bm-A-G, I use
barre chord 355433. I put an asterisk where to use the barre chord.
I was born in Omaha
In my mother's tired arms
After all our fight was gone
I bet it felt good just to lie there
Drinking in the warm light
And breathing through the tubes
As our lovers filled the room with conversation

I was named to bear you like
A float in a parade
My piano fingers tugging at the cord
And so much extra skin
That I still can't fill it in
Wonder whose it could have been
*
'Cause it don't fit me comfortably
And the nurses stopping in
To see that you are fine
*
To open up the blinds
And shower you with sunshine
I was born in Omaha
Born to steal her skeptic heart
My piano fingers tugging at the cord
'Cause life in a bubble can be
The sweetest thing sometimes
With the world just passing by
Outside your window
