off the "Bread and Circus" CD
contributed by Ryan Houlette
another in the "This is how I play it, guys" series
you should really hear the original song to get the rhythms right
[intro]
F Am F (3x)
(When you play the D, you should hammer on the A on the 3rd string)
[verse1]
F Am F
Line of people to pass you by,
F Am F
Posing sympathy with its whitewash eyes
F Am F
Ladies feigning their mourning cries
F Am F
And the men shaking hands
[chorus]
D F
Weigh Away
D F
Way away
F F
All the pictures in your mind
F
As you're passed the thousandth time
Am F
Thousandth photograph
[verse2]
F Am F
Listen to sympathetic lies
F Am F
As their reasons change under mourning guise
F Am F
With the gentlemen feigning sorrowed sighs
F Am F
And drinking champagne
[chorus]
D F
Weigh Away
D F
Way away
F F
As all the people pass and pose
F
You hold back the tears and hold
Am F
On to memories
[verse3]
F Am F
Small talk hangs like a dirty cloud
F Am F
Saying nothing real but deafening loud
F Am F
An urge to run away from the crowd
F Am F
And mourn all alone
F Am F
Make a promise to no-one
F Am F
Wondering if you'd been worthwhile
F Am F
Turn away from the chatter
F Am F
And the hungry smiles
