Ain't So Great
Tabbed by: jdomary
Capo on II
There is a picking pattern used for most of this song which I probably won't tab...
but I will give you the chord shapes that will work. For the picking pattern, you
are only using the notes that are not the X's. Got it? Good.
[Intro]
GCG/BA7sus4A7
[Verse 1]
GC
There's a man across the river
G/B
Who left this town for a potluck dream
A7
With his whole life in a sack
GC
The real deal never hit him
G/B
He never knew things aren't what they seem
A7
Now he's got no way back
G
Now he's always outside
C
Lookin' up at the pale blue sky
G/BA7
Wondering why he never tried to be free
G
Maybe it ain't too late
C
Can the devil's advocate be the saint?
G/BA7
I guess we'll all just have to wait and see
[Chorus]
GDAmC
The golden days are way behind of when he was lucky all the time.
GD
He?d try to do things right but they?d come out wrong.
AmC
He wants to leave this town but he ain?t that strong.
GDAmC
The concrete's cold and the blankets thin, salvation lies within my friend.
GD
Now his home is a wooden crate.
AmCGDAmC
I guess life just ain?t so great sometimes.
[Verse 2]
GC
He takes another sip from the bottle
G/B
Another headache for the road
A7
And he starts to feel ashamed
G
Well it burns goin' down
C
But it lights up his life,
G/B
Unlike this town,
A7
Where he tries to stand the pain
G
Well, he pulls up his sleeve and he tightens his belt
C
He's gonna feel better than he's ever felt
G/B
For this old man who?s already been dealt
A7
A hand that's bound to fold
G
He walks by a mirror and he looks at his face
C
It's wrinkled and shallow without any grace
G/B
And for this old man, it's hard to embrace
A7
The trials of getting old
[Repeat Chorus]
G/BC
Looking at the world through children?s eyes
G/B
His mind is filled with faces and places
CDsus4
And things he won?t realize until he dies
[Repeat Chorus then fade]
