"Ugly Side" by Blue October
from the album "History for Sale"
Notes: You can play this one with either power chords or open chords; on an acoustic,
power chords for the verses and open chords for the chorus sound pretty good.
Like most Blue October songs, this one would sound better if you had violin
accompaniment. I whistle the violin parts, and it sounds OK. Comments are

Bm
I must have sneezed
On knees I freeze
A
I mean I just choked up
G
But somehow I slept
E
I dream, I mean
Bm
I dreamt of nothing
Bm
I'm able to breathe
A sweet relief
A
Now that you're here for me
G
A northern degree
E
Dove into me
Bm
Now I'm recovering
(Chorus)
G
I only want you to see
D
My favorite part of me
A
And not my ugly side
G E Bm
And not my ugly side
So hook up a C.B. wave away
For conversation flow
I'm shown to your cage to wage this rage
Don't let me go
A kick and a scream is all that seems
To mean a lot thus far (lot thus far...)
I won't let you on my stage, my page
You can't know
Yet you have to know!
[Repeat Chorus twice, then outro:]
Bm (sustained)
G A D A Bm
So calm...
D A Bm
And it's so calm...
G A Bm
And now it's dark
G A
I look for you to light my heart
Bm G
I'm between the moon and where you are
A Bm
I know I can't be... far
