Silver Lining

Jenny Lewis - "Silver Lining"

(transcribed by Josh Alder)

This is how Jenny has played this song acoustically during her solo shows.

I transcribed this after watching her play it live at the Roseland Theater

in Portland, Oregon, on May 30, 2009. Note the capo on the first fret.

STANDARD TUNING

CAPO 1

INTRO:

And I'm not going back

Into rags or in the hole

And our bruises are coming

But we will never fold

And I was your silver lining

As the story goes

I was your silver lining

But now I'm gold

Hooray hooray

I'm your silver lining

Hooray hooray

But now I'm gold

And I was your silver lining

High up on my toes

You were running through fields of hitch-hikers

As the story goes

Hooray hooray

I'm your silver lining

Hooray hooray

But now I'm gold

Hooray hooray

I'm your silver lining

Hooray hooray

But now I'm gold

[Instrumental break]

And the grass it was a ticking

And the sun was on the rise

I never felt so wicked

As when I willed our love to die

And I was your silver lining

As the story goes

I was your silver lining

But now I'm gold

Hooray hooray

I'm your silver lining

Hooray hooray

But now I'm gold

Hooray hooray

I'm your silver lining

Hooray hooray

But now I'm gold

But now I'm gold

But now I'm gold
