Charmer chords by Aimee Mann

Chords with lyrics

Charmer

from "Charmer" (2012)


Note - this song has a pretty typical series of open-chord style walking-chord
changes but is played with barred-power chords instead giving it a unique sound.

Use power chords!

 G+G        E MajorE     C majorC
When you're a charmer

 G+G       E MajorE  FF  C majorC
The apples fall

   G+G   F#F#               E MajorE
And you're quite the little collector

 D MajorD       C majorC
You got 'em all

 G+G        E MajorE     C majorC
When you're a charmer

 G+G     E MajorE  FF  C majorC
People respond

   G+G        F#F#       E MajorE
They can't see the hidden agenda

D MajorD       C majorC - keyboard riff
you got going on

E MajorE         C majorC     G+G     F#* (bar 2nd fret E MajorE and A augmentedA strings)
But when you're weak it's the Holy Grail
E MajorE         C majorC     G+G   F#*
you're two for one, it's a fire sale
E MajorE         C majorC     G+G   F#*
and that's a wall that you cannot scale
E MajorE          C majorC     G+G   F#*
so you're forced to burrow under

 G+G        E MajorE     C majorC
When you're a charmer

 G+G        E MajorE  FF  C majorC
The world applauds

    G+G          F#F#    E MajorE
They don't know that secretly charmers

 D MajorD          C majorC
Feel like they're frauds

 G+G        E MajorE    C majorC
When you're a charmer

 G+G      E MajorE  FF  C majorC
You hate yourself

  G+G      F#F#         E MajorE
A augmentedA victim of sideshow hypnosis

   D MajorD     C majorC
Like everyone else


E MajorE       C majorC       G+G     F#*
and then your thinking goes black and white
E MajorE       C majorC      G+G  F#*
and you're all hunger and appetite
E MajorE     C majorC     G+G   F#*
this is a battle you cannot fight
E MajorE    C majorC  G+G     F#*
no, you only can surrender
E MajorE    C majorC  G+G     F#*
no, you only can surrender
