Bright Eyes - Another Travellin Song Chords

This is my first tab. It's not in the same key as the song but.... oh well.




Intro - G

G
well I’m changing all my strings
                                    C
I’m gonna write another travellin song
  G 
about all the billion highways
                               D 
and the cities at the break of dawn 
G
well I guess the best that I can do now
                                   C
is pretend that I’ve done nothing wrong
D 
and dream about a train that’s gonna
 C                        G 
take me back where I belong 
G
now the ocean speaks and spits 
                               C
and I can hear it from the interstate 
  G                     
and I’m screaming at my brother
 C                           D
on the cell phone, he is far away 
G
and I’m sayin’ nothing in the past
                               C
or future ever will feel like today 
D
until we’re parkin in an alley,
C                         G
just hopin that our sh*t is safe
 
        C                 G
so I go back and forth forever
        C                    G
all my thoughts, they come in pairs
        C              G               D
well I will I won’t I doubt I don’t I’m not surprised
C                  D              G
But I never feel quite prepared (woo!)

DEAD STRUMMING -- 

Now I’m hunched over a typewriter
                                    
I guess you’d call that paintin’ in a cave

And there’s a word I can’t remember
                        
and a feeling I can not escape 

And now my ashtray’s overflowin
                                
I’m still starin at a clean white page


D 
And morning’s at my window 
            C                 G 
and she is sending me to bed again
G 
Well I dreamed the dark on the horizon,
                                    C
I dreamed a desert where the dead layed down
G 
I dreamed a prostituted child
                                D
touching an old man in a fast food crown
G 
Oh Yeah I dreamt a ship was sinkin’, 
                                C
there was people screamin’ all around 
D
And I awoke to my alarm clock,
          C                        G
it was a pop song, it was playin’ loud


 
           C                     G
So I will find my fears and face them
           C               G
Or I will cower like a dog 
          C                       G
I will kick and scream or kneel and plead
           C                D                   G
I will fight like hell to hide that I’m giving up
