Caravan Chords

(ver. 2)
Gomez
I guess this song is an iTunes exclusive on account of I cannot 
find it anywhere else. Along with that, I can't even find lyrics, 
so I wrote what I think they are for the most part. If anyone has 
corrections, please let me know; that would be really great.

-----

Okay so this song is played with a capo on the 6th fret (not the 
8th as the only other tab suggests). To begin with, I'll write 
just chords and lyrics, then at the end write exactly how I play 
it. If anyone wants to hear a recording of just my guitar, please 



Chords:
A    (x0222x)
G    (32000x)
D/F# (20023x)
Bm7  (x2020x)

******PLEASE NOTE THAT THE TOP STRING (e) IS NEVER PLAYED******
Also that everything is strictly relative to the 6th fret capo.


Intro:
A  G  D/F#  x2

Verse 1:
A                           G
Every day is the wrong day,
          D/F#
Wrong day for me.
A                               G
For every door that is closing,
                 D/F#
Another closes on me.
A                           G
Every way is the wrong way,
            D/F#
Wrong time, wrong sign.
A                              G
Feels like I'm serving time on,
                    D/F#
Some other fellow's crime.


Prechorus:
Bm7
For I'm long, long gone from your
G         D/F#
Heart and mind, I'm an
              A   D/F#
Awkward young man, I'm a
A
Caravan


Chorus:
    G          D/F#
And I see no design
        A             G
In your love, in your love.
             D/F#
And I see no design
        A             G
In your love, in your love.



Those are the only three parts, and the order is as follows:

----------

Once again, if anyone would like to hear how i play it, feel free 
to contact me, my email address is listed above; I'm definitely 
willing to record it if it will help you. Below are the lyrics to 
the best of my knowledge. Some lines are missing.


Verse 1:
Every day is the wrong day,
Wrong day for me.
For every door that is closing,
Another closes on me.
Every way is the wrong way,
Wrong time, wrong sign.
Feels like I'm serving time on,
Some other fellow's crime.

Prechorus:
I am long, long gone from your
Heart and mind, I'm an
Awkward young man, I'm a
Caravan

Verse 2:
Every suit is the wrong suit,
Wrong suit for me.
Belt buckles fasten up,
Too tight or too loose on me.
All soap is the wrong soap,
Joke soap, you see.
They'll find the just right kind,
To wash this fear from me.

Prechorus:
I am long, long gone from your
Heart and mind, I'm an
Awkward young man, I'm a
Caravan

Chorus:
And I see no design
In your love, in your love.
And I see no design
In your love, in your love.

Verse 3:
My face is the wrong face,
My (?) eyes
And every scene is the wrong scene,
Whether I sink or socially climb.
Every word is the wrong word,
I'm quite surprised when I speak.
And if I find I've somethin' in mind they,
Rarely listen to me.

Prechorus:
I am long, long gone from your
Heart and mind, I'm an
Awkward young man, I'm a
Caravan

Chorus

Verse 4:
Every dream is the wrong dream,
Can referee my reveries.
Every thing is the wrong thing,
While I brag of my misery.
Every song is the wrong song,
But you listen for the in-tone.
Ill-considered, ill-advised, mistaken,
Bad, and undesired.

Prechorus:
I am long, long gone from your
Hard earned mind, I'm an
Awkward young man, I'm a
Caravan, I'm an
Awkward young man, I'm a
Caravan.

Chorus x2
