John Cougar Mellencamp - Women Seem Chords

WOMEN SEEM
JOHN COUGAR MELLENCAMP

NOTE: When I did this tab I didn't have time to figure
out the riff that follows under the rythm, nor the riff
after the verse tacet. I'll post it as soon as I can in
a corrected version, unless someone beats me to it, of
course. :)


intro: E  A  B x2

verse:
      E    A   B
Women seem  to like me
             E          A         B
They seem to like what I  have to say
          E      A       B
When they see me  out in public
      E       A       B
Women seem to look my way
      E       A           B
Women seem to treat me so gracious
     E          A            B
They sing me to sleep with a song
          E      A             B
But there always seems to be a problem
      E             A       B
Women don't seem to like me long

:| intro, sing over Yeah, yeah, yeah

verse:
      E   A    B
Women seem  to want me
   E         A        B
To stay with them all night
        E  A       B
We have so much in common
    E              A       B
Our futures really do seem bright
      E   A       B
Women seem  to forgive me
             E         A         B
They seem to become my very good friends
            E          A        B
But when it comes time for a commitment
    E              A        B
The romance always seems to end

chorus1:
     C#m               B
They tell me all their stories
   C#m                    B
We lay awake and talk all night
A             B
Maybe it's me I don't know
           A                             B
But in the morning there always seems to be some kind of fight

           E       A     B
Well women seem to be so clever
  E            A               B
I love all the jokes that they tell
        E       A             B
Like my last boyfriend really hurt me in bed
        E (tacet)              riff2
Hey but you seem to fit so well
      E        A         B
Women sure can hurt your feelings
         E                 A          B
They can burn you down and not make a sound
              E              A            B
And then they call me up and say hey come over
   E           A         B
My husband has just left town

chorus2:
     C#m               B
They tell me all their stories
   C#m                     B
We lay awake and laugh all night

Maybe it's me I don't know
           A                             B
But in the morning there always seems to be some kind of fight

I've bought a couple for one or two
      E                 A       B
Women seem to think all men are louses
      E      A          B
And I guess I  think so too
      Ab5          C#5
Women seem so much smarter
Ab5               C#5
Than your average Joe
(tacet)C#m*                    B5
Women seem to be a little more intuitive
              C#m*        B5    B (w/violin part)
And when they lie nobody knows

verse: (play riff1 alone)
           E            A             B
Well women seem to know how to keep a secret
           E            A        B
They don't blabbermouth just for show
      E                A          B
Fifty percent of their charm is illusion
    E         A             B
And that is a good thing to know

Women seem to look my way

They seem to like what I have to say
