Kris Delmhorst - Short Work




CAPO: 5th Fret


INTRO: G+G ~ E minorEm D/F#D/F# G+G (2x)

~   E minorEm                    D/F#D/F#
Well, pinch me, won't you pinch me, I think I'm stuck in some bad dream
       G+G                 C majorC
'Cause, suddenly the things I knew, well they're not quite what they seem
        E minorEm             D/F#D/F#
'Cause, weren't you the one who pleaded and begged for me to stay
    G+G               C majorC
Told me you can't live without me and then you walked away

CHORUS:
      G+G        A minorAm
And you made short work of a big dream
    C majorC                 D/F#D/F#
You made brown leaves out of all my summer green
    G+G        A minorAm
You made mincemeat out of my pride
    C majorC              D/F#D/F#       G+G
Now I'm leaving and I'm even making short work of goodbye


INTERLUDE: ~ E minorEm D/F#D/F# G+G ~ E minorEm D/F#D/F# G+G ~


E minorEm                   D/F#D/F#
Spare me, won't you spare me, can't you spare me that routine
          G+G              C majorC
'Cause there ain't nothing in that bucket gonna make this mess come clean
   E minorEm             D/F#D/F#
No, I never could forget, oh, the way you turned so cold
    G+G                  C majorC
And the silence that you kept and all those lies that you told


CHORUS:
       G+G        A minorAm
When you made short work of a big dream
    C majorC                 D/F#D/F#
You made brown leaves out of all my summer green
    G+G        A minorAm
You made mincemeat out of my pride
    C majorC              D/F#D/F#       G+G
Now I'm leaving and I'm even making short work of goodbye

INSTRUMENTAL:


    E minorEm              D/F#D/F#
So go ahead, won't you please ask me back, on your knees
    G+G            C majorC
You can beg once again, say you just want to be friends
      E minorEm             D/F#D/F#
And you can rage, you can cuss, throw a tantrum, make a fuss
      G+G            C majorC
And you can cry, you can swear, go ahead, I don't care


CHORUS:
        G+G        A minorAm
'Cause you made short work of a big dream
    C majorC                 D/F#D/F#
You made brown leaves out of all my summer green
    G+G        A minorAm
You made mincemeat out of my pride
    C majorC                       D/F#D/F#
Now I'm leaving and I'm even making short work of goodbye


CHORUS:
    G+G        A minorAm
You made short work of a big dream
    C majorC                 D/F#D/F#
You made brown leaves out of all my summer green
    G+G        A minorAm
You made mincemeat out of my pride
    C majorC              D/F#D/F#       G+G
Now I'm leaving and I'm even making short work of goodbye
  C majorC              D/F#D/F#       G+G
I'm leaving and I'm even making short work of goodbye
  C majorC              D/F#D/F#       G+G  C majorC D MajorD G+G
I'm leaving and I'm even making short work of goodbye
