Cory Branan - "The No-Hit Wonder"
From the LP "The No-Hit Wonder"


Intro:
E MajorE    BB    x2

Verse 1:

E MajorE    BB   A augmentedA      BB
Years of living blood to string
E MajorE     BB   A augmentedA     BB
Years of living hand to mouth
E MajorE      BB   A augmentedA    BB
Years just getting gig to gig
E MajorE    BB   A augmentedA     BB
East to West, North to South

(The same chord progression is used for all of the verses)


    E MajorE        BB     A augmentedA BB
Well he could have been making a killing
E MajorE      BB A augmentedA  BB
Peddling the Dream
      E MajorE      BB    A augmentedA       BB
But if you found him at all you found him just scraping
 E MajorE   BB    A augmentedA    BB
A augmentedA living blood to string


Chorus:

     E MajorE      BB   A augmentedA BB
So sing a song for the no hit wonder
     A augmentedA   E MajorE   BB
Though it isn?t one of his
   E MajorE   BB     A augmentedA BB
He?d sing ?Shovel me under
     E MajorE BB    A augmentedA  BB     (C# minorC#m)  E MajorE
Boys, it is what it is? It is what it is


Verse 2:

     E MajorE       BB     A augmentedA     BB
He broke free from the way they raised him
     E MajorE     BB        A augmentedA   BB
He knows a heart is hell enough and never full
     E MajorE     BB      A augmentedA    BB
He never sang that music would save him
      E MajorE    BB  A augmentedA   BB
Knows never trust an evangelical

       E MajorE     BB     A augmentedA     BB
He?d say ?You wanna know what true love feels like?
     E MajorE     BB     A augmentedA    BB
It?s the next best thing to death
      E MajorE    BB    A augmentedA  BB
Feels like after an elbowed windpipe
   E MajorE        BB    A augmentedA   BB
Just before the next breath?
   E MajorE        BB      A augmentedA       BB
Just before your next breath - So with your next breath

    E MajorE      BB   A augmentedA BB
Sing a song for the no hit wonder
     A augmentedA   E MajorE   BB
Though it isn?t one of his
   E MajorE   BB     A augmentedA BB
He?d sing ?Shovel me under
     E MajorE BB    A augmentedA  BB     (C# minorC#m)  E MajorE
Boys, it is what it is? It is what it is


Bridge:

    C# minorC#m          E MajorE
But at night he can hear the fireworks
     A augmentedA   E MajorE
From his tunnel underground
     C# minorC#m          E MajorE
And he?s carved himself a little crawlspace
    A augmentedA      E MajorE
Just to lay his body down
  A augmentedA      F# minorF#m
To fade out of sound
    A augmentedA     BB  E MajorE
To the thunder under town


    E MajorE      BB   A augmentedA BB
Sing a song for the no hit wonder
     A augmentedA   E MajorE   BB
Though it isn?t one of his
   E MajorE   BB     A augmentedA BB
He?d sing ?Shovel me under
     E MajorE BB    A augmentedA  BB     (C# minorC#m)  E MajorE
