Yardsale Live chords by The Avett Brothers
Guitar chords with lyrics
NOTE: These chords are NOT from the studio version, they're from a live performance. Reference Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFMO1_5IFzw Artist: The Avett Brothes Album: The Gleam (2006) This is what I think the chord are by messing around with them on the banjo and they seem to be the closest in my opinion. Tuning: Standard No Capo [Intro] G [Verse 1]
G                               C                 G
I wonder if this blade ever ran through someone's side
Am                      C
The blood wiped away to hide
C                                     G
How evil you grandfather was 'fore he died
G                         C         G
But war can make monsters out of us all
Am                      C
I'm sure I'd become one if I was called
G                 C     D7
And then it would be my blade
             C   G
Here at this yardsale
[Verse 2]
(repeat verse 1 chords)
The guitar I am holding is way out of tune
The neck it is warped and the saddle is through
I wonder if sweet music ever was played
From the hands of a boy to a girl in the shade
From this rickety ghost of a song
Here at this yardsale
[Verse 3]
(repeat verse 1 chords)
A dollar for anything here on this quilt
A price tag for hands from which all things are built
A blanket of voices speak pleasure in shame
Flowers of plastic and fruit of the same
A basket of nothing at all
Here at this yardsale
[Verse 4]
(repeat verse 1 chords)
So if I had the money I'd buy everything
And cover the whole lot with good gasoline
And burn it for all that I care for the past
And rid mother earth of what never should last
And give her the present of ash                Please rate for accuracy!
