Spilt Needles Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Shins
This version one is played with a capo, taken from the way this girl plays it: 


Capo on 2

Intro chords (x2):
Am  C  Am  C
Am  C  G  Dsus

Am          C         Am       C
I've done myself an impossible crime
Am     C	      G        Dsus
Had to paint myself a hole and fall inside
Am      C             Am        C
If it's far enough in sight and rhyme
Am       C	      G         Dsus		C
I get to wear another dress and count in time

    G	      Dsus       C		    
Oh, won't you do me the favor, man,
     G	    Dsus   C
Of a giving mind, 
  G   Dsus      C
A polymorphing opinion here,
         G        Dsus
And your vague outline,

C

Am  C  Am  C
Am  C  G  Dsus

Am          C            Am       C
I'll find myself another burning gate
Am     C	        G	       Dsus
A pretty face, a vague idea I can't relate
Am              C                Am       C
And this is get what you get for pulling pins
Am          C	            G	       Dsus  C
Out of the hole inside the hole you're in

      G 	Dsus	     C
It's like I'm pressed on the handle bars
      G 	 Dsus   C
Of a blind man's bike
    G         Dsus	     C
No straws to grab, just the rushing wind
	G	Dsus
On the rolling mind

C	 	   
La la la la laa

Am  C  Am  C
Am C G Dsus

G

2x

     Dsus     C    G
They want you to decide,
Dsus    Fsus2     G  
Eventually, it happens,
      Dsus  C		G
Some gather on one side,
      Dsus     Fsus2    G		
With all their pearly snapping,
     Dsus      C            G
They close the basement door,
   Dsus     Fsus2    G
It sets our teeth to chatter,
    Dsus  C	       G
You never saw it before,
    Dsus
But now that hardly matters,


       Em7         G
You're old enough, boy,
         Em7                G
Too many summers you've enjoyed,
             Em7                 G                   Dsus
So spin the wheel, We'll set you up with some odd convictions,
                       C
Because you're finally golden, boy,


Am  C,  Am  C
Am  C,  G  Dsus


      G 	Dsus	     C
It's like I'm pressed on the handle bars
      G 	 Dsus   C
Of a blind man's bike
    G 	     Dsus	     C
No straws to grab, just the rushing wind
	G	Dsus
On the rolling mind
