Chords with lyrics
-------------------------------------------
A augmentedA great song by Christian Kane. Couldn't find the chords anywhere, so here goes.
The verse is basically two chords, with some alterations on the D MajorD (add pinky or
take away middle). Most
is done by proper strumming, I think.
Just play along the original, shouldn't be hard to figure out.
Dadd4add9: Just move the C majorC chord up three frets
Starts with E minorEm upstroke

Verse
======
E minorEm D MajorD
Can I cut in on a dance?
D MajorD
You ain't gonna find what you're lookin' for
E minorEm
In that little Mexican
E minorEm
You can't mix your tears
D MajorD
With those from an agave plant
You see I've danced with him myself
E minorEm
And he's never been a friend
You go believin' in your Lancelot
D MajorD
Well it's all in vain
And you're chasin' picket fences,
E minorEm
There's always hell to pay
I met many a girl in here
D MajorD
With the same story line
All them boys on those white horses
E minorEm
Don't know how to ride
Chorus
======
C majorC
But I got a pain outside with enough giddyup
E minorEm
To be free
C majorC E minorEm
I got a faint smell of cheap perfume
FF E minorEm
And a hint of gasoline
C majorC E minorEm
See I'm a different kind of knight
D MajorD E minorEm
You're gonna find your fairy tales are lies
C majorC
I don't have a white horse
Dadd4add9 E minorEm
But you can come along for the ride
Verse 2 (Em, C majorC up and down)
=====
She said "I'm tired of living life in a romance book
I think chivalry's dead
And I ain't gonna look
For them roundtable boys on the white horse
That can't get the story right."
I said "as luck would have it
I was tossed by the throne
I let my merry hair down
Some years ago
And I traded my coat of arms
For a guitar and some broken yellow lines."
-> Chorus
Verse 3 (Em, C majorC up and down)
=======
She kinda shifted in her seat a little bit
The thought of every eye on her bee-stung lips
And she raised that glass and the lime
And she kissed them goodbye
She said "promise me you'll take it slow
And swear no talk of tomorrow
And when you feel me tighten around you
Well you can let the hammer down."
