Pete Bernhard - Warning Chords

[Intro]
A Dm A Dm (x2)
 
 
[Verse 1]
     A             Dm
dont do too much before the show
        G              F        E
there's so much no one needs to know
   A          Dm
so many heavy hands to shake
G                           F     E
smiles that flash fast tend to be fake
        A                Dm
and the lines of time in dressing rooms
G                 F          E
pills to ward off blacks and blues
A                  Dm
chances pass don't hesitate
  G              F       E
a dripping tap becomes a lake
 
      A#                E               D
there watching close so don't make no mistakes.
 
 
[Chorus]
       A       C#m7     F#
Just a warning to you Emily
          B7
there are things here
          E
they aint what they seem
          A        C#        F#
and are  you might want what used to be
   B                E                     D
sometimes what you want-it aint what you need.
 
 
[Instrumental]
A Dm A Dm
 
 
[Verse 2]
A                 Dm
Everyone has some mouths to feed
G                  F     E
some too close now to be seen
    A                     Dm
The fires are doused with gasoline
    G               F      E
The prices rise the hungers mean
    A                         Dm
The highest is strong, but it leaves to fast
 G            F       E
seeming never to come back
   A                   Dm
It will return but not every night
 G                          F         E
knowing what your worth to make you write
 
     A#             E                D
it's not a ball so come prepared to fight.
 
 
[Chorus]
        A       C#m7     F#
Just my warning to you Emily
          B7
there are things here
          E
they aint what they seem
 A                 C#       F#
you might want what used to be
   B7                   E                 D
sometimes what you want-it aint what you need.

A Dm A Dm (x2)
 
 
[Verse 3]
  A                         Dm
Strings on the dollar from every purse
 G                   F        E
what seems free now could be cursed
 A                       Dm
if you want to walk you must fall down
 G                     F     E
People talk but don't hear a sound
 A                  Dm
Whispers climbing ladders up
      G            F      E
the ecstasy of a moments luck
 A                      Dm
ships smashed built so carefully
     G                 F       E
and someday your eyes have to see
 
     A#                E                 D
the thicker skin, the less you have to bleed.
 
 
[Chorus]
        A         C#m7         F#
Just a warning to you now from me
          B7
there are things here
          E
they aint what they seem
         A        C#        F#
and are you might want what used to be
   B                E                     D
sometimes what you want-it aint what you need.
