chords seemed to sound a bit funny and I made some changes to it that seemed to
sound fine. There's a part missing near the ending, but generally it works fine to my ears
I play it with a capo on 1st.
C Am
The bar closes early on the Sabbath day
F G
So me and my kid we hit the park to play
C Am
Then it'd start to rain so we'd walk home again
F
He asked why he was born
G
I don't know what to say
C Am
I don't feel guilty and I don't feel sad
F G
This mother fucking life is the best he's had
C Am
I said I've been there sonny and it ain't that bad
F G
I took my hits from the shits back when I was a lad
Chorus:
F Am
So long ago and even though I tried
C G F
I couldn't make him see the life he had cast in front of me
Am C G
And even though I cried I couldn't make him be the very thing I needed
(Same chord progression of C, Am, F, G)
His mother'd make a scene when I come home late
She look like she's dying but she's twenty eight
I never loved that whore I never will no more
Except for a month back in '84
The jam was playing and my heart stood still gazing at a shadow on the window sill
Chorus: (Chord progression of F, Am, C, G)
So long ago and even though I tried I couldn't make her see I wasn't quite the man
she thought I'd be
And even though I cried I couldn't make her be the very thing I needed
And even though I tried I couldn't make her see I wasn't quite the man she thought I'd be
And even though I cried I couldn't make her be the very thing I needed
(This is the part I've not figured out)
Could she be the very thing I needed?
Could she be the very thing
the very thing
C G
Push yourself away from your one best friend
Am F
Who's going to love you when you reach the end?
Who will?
Who will?
