Done by ear. Lyrics are pulled off of some site (and incomplete).
I play an acoustic and like playing with the AMaj7 (x02120), but the regular A
(x02220) is fine (or power chords).
I did a rough tab of the first guitar break.
You finally pulled back when the world pulled your hair
Alone in the room with a question hangin
You left with your hand in the air, and it's still there
B: ------------12 | ------------12- | ------------12- | ---------
G: 9-9-9-9-9/11-- | 9-9-9-9-9/11--8 | 9-9-9-9-9/11--8 | --9-9----
D: ---9---9------ | ---9---9------- | ---9---9------- | 11---11-9
At your age life moves so fast
Twelve years old, skinny legs, built to come in last
Had a mirror that would never lie
But ? never pays to try
Everytime i saw you
You were trying so hard to explain
Broadcast failure
Like a plastic bowl its spinning down the drain
But you came through, you came through
When nobody expected you to
You came through, you came through
With all those narrowed eyes upon you
You came through, you came through
Now you wish you weighed a thousand pounds
So you could crush all those bullies and demons down
From your seat at the back of the bus
You're still waving back at us
Everytime i saw you
You were trying so hard to explain
Broadcast failure
Like a plastic bowl its spinning down the drain
But you came through, you came through
When nobody expected you to
You came through, you came through
With all those narrowed eyes upon you
You came through, you came through
E F# E (Not sure about these last chords, bass notes sound like E F# E, guitar
sounds like E A Ab, but it's your call)
Enjoy. Always loved this song. Post corrections/additions.
