Ugly Side chords by Blue October

Chords with lyrics

"Ugly Side" by Blue October
from the album "History for Sale"

Notes: You can play this one with either power chords or open chords; on an acoustic,
power chords for the verses and open chords for the chorus sound pretty good.
Like most Blue October songs, this one would sound better if you had violin
accompaniment. I whistle the violin parts, and it sounds OK.  Comments are

B minorBm
I must have sneezed

On knees I freeze
	 A augmentedA
I mean I just choked up
  G+G
But somehow I slept
 E MajorE
I dream, I mean
	  B minorBm
I dreamt of nothing
  B minorBm
I'm able to breathe

A augmentedA sweet relief
	    A augmentedA
Now that you're here for me
 G+G
A augmentedA northern degree
   E MajorE
Dove into me
     B minorBm
Now I'm recovering


(Chorus)
 G+G
I only want you to see
	  D MajorD
My favorite part of me
      A augmentedA
And not my ugly side
     G+G    E MajorE  B minorBm
And not my ugly side


So hook up a C.B. wave away
For conversation flow
I'm shown to your cage to wage this rage
Don't let me go
A augmentedA kick and a scream is all that seems
To mean a lot thus far (lot thus far...)
I won't let you on my stage, my page
You can't know
Yet you have to know!


[Repeat Chorus twice, then outro:]

B minorBm (sustained)

   G+G  A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA B minorBm
So calm...
	   D MajorD A augmentedA B minorBm
And it's so calm...
	     G+G   A augmentedA   B minorBm
And now it's dark
			  G+G    A augmentedA
I look for you to light my heart
B minorBm				  G+G
I'm between the moon and where you are
  A augmentedA       B minorBm
I know I can't be... far
