Spoon chords by Dave Matthews Band

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Key: Em

Difficulty: Novice

Verse 1:
Em         D
Spoon in spoon
C              E
Stirring my coffee
   Am        D
I thought of you
     G            D/F#
And turned to the gate
    Em     D       C             E
And on my way came up with the answers
Am          D
I scratched my head
         G           D/F#
And the answers were gone

Verse 2:
     Em      D
From hand to hand,
C              E
Wrist to the elbow
    Am    D
Red blood sand
G             D/F#
Could Dad be God?
Em         D        C          E
Crosses cross hung out like a wet rag
Am            D
Forgive you? Why?
     G          D/F#
You hung me out to dry

Chorus:
Em     D   C   E
 And maybe I'm crazy
      Am          D
But laughing out loud
          G    D/F#
Makes the pain pass by
Em     D     C               E
 And maybe you're a little crazy
      Am          D            G    D/F#
But laughing out loud makes it all subside
C
Holding, I'm holding
C
I'm still falling,
C
I'm still falling

VIOLIN SOLO:

Verse 3:
Em         D
Spoon in spoon
C              E
Stirring my coffee
   Am        D
I thought of this
     G            D/F#
And turned to the gate
    Em     D             C            E
But on my way crack lightning and thunder
Am          D
I hid my head
         G           D/F#
and the storm slipped away, well

Chorus:
Em     D   C   E
   maybe I'm crazy
      Am          D
But laughing out loud
          G    D/F#
Makes the pain pass by
Em     D     C               E
 And maybe you're a little crazy
      Am          D            G    D/F#
And laughing out loud makes it all alright

BANJO SOLO:

Verse 4:
    Em         D
From time to time
C              E
Minutes and hours
   Am        D
Some move ahead while
     G            D/F#
Some lag behind
          Em     D
It's like the balloon that
 C            E
Rise and then vanish
      Am      D
This drop of hope
      G             D/F#
That falls from his eyes

Bridge:

Verse 5:

Em         D
Spoon in spoon
C              E
Stirring my coffee
   Am        D
I think of this
     G            D/F#
And turned to go away
    Em     D             C      E
But as I walk there're voices behind me saying
Am          D
  Sinners sin
G        D/F#
Come now and play
