Change the note (second fret) to (third fret) in the chord to make
it . Early in the song he sticks to the low strings on the guitar
chords, but later, for effect, I like to just play all the strings.
Here's about how I strum, but it's probably easiest just to strum by ear.
1+2+3+4+1+2+3+4+1+2+3+4+1+2+3+4+
dudu udududu udududu udududu udu
- -
ten years older than I was what I brought you down to see,
- -
what I thought would make you fall in love
wearing off on our dreams someday man I'm gonna be
- -
no different than the other rivers
I tried to look at you but I couldn't break the ice
- -
you stood out there for an hour freezing
put your hand around my back I guess you thought I needed that
- -
I never tried to find you
and I hope you don't remember me and I hope you're not alone
- -
wanted me to take you home. you said you'd rather be alone
- -
I never thought of that
car was warm and we had wine
but I couldn't find the perfect song
now I own furniture for worn crows feet
- -
and I can't even remember the car
sometimes I can feel your weight when i close my eyes
- -
seven times I was under you
I never tried to find you
and I hope you don't remember me and I hope you're not alone
and I don't wanna know what your thinking
I'm looking out the window--drinkin' drinkin' drinkin'
- -
shallow frame and shaky sticks
- -
but I know there's a river in me
shallow minded adult tricks
- -
but I know there's a river in me
shallow frame and shaky sticks
- -
but I know there's a river in me
I never tried to find you
and I hope you don't remember me and I hope you're not alone
and I don't wanna know what your thinking
I'm looking out the window--drinkin' drinkin' drinkin'
