Song: Next to the Trash
Chords written out by Adam Carey

(skip these paragraphs if you don't feel like reading, just some notes on the chords)
One of the more traditional bluegrass songs on Punch Brother's "Antifogmatic,"
it's a very fun song to sit around and play on guitar. All of these chords are
right to my knowledge. I added in some qualities to some of the chords that the
guitarist might not necessarily play in the song, but are present in the overall
harmonies of the song.

 For instance, the 7ths in the F7s are usually either played by Thile on his
mandolin or brushed upon by the violin. If it's easier, just play an F, it'll
sound just fine. The other instance is the 3rd section, ("She's right, I'm mean
when I'm bored") you'll notice Dm/C and Dm/B. You can just easily play a simple
Dm, I just included the bass notes because the bass player plays those notes, and
if you're playing solo it's fun to include them.

She puts my body away

Bb majorBb     FF
Next to the trash

C majorC       A7A7
Under the sink

Bb majorBb              FF  F7F7
Along with all the cleaning's supplies and the

Bb majorBb                    FF
things that we buy and decide we don't need

FF               Bb majorBb       FF
Well it's damp and it's dark and it's lonely in here

Bb majorBb     FF
Next to the trash

C majorC    A7A7
Under the sink

Bb majorBb                       FF
But everyone needs some time off now and then

    Bb majorBb                   FF
'Cause I'm happy my friends don't feel sorry for me

DmDm
She says if you're playin' the game

               FF
I hope you know you won't win it

       DmDm
And you can tell me next to the trash

       FF
Well I'll tell you I'm in it

G minorGm                        A minorAm
Why would you want me to touch it if you know I don't need it

A minorAm     E MajorE          A minorAm
She's right I'm mean when I'm bored

DmDm        A minorAm   E MajorE        FF
So I dig through the trash looking for her

DmDm
She would wash herself off

  Dm/B       A minorAm
In the mist from the pipes

(this part below is simply a Dm/C ending in Am, and over it you can play the
descending bass line: D, C, B, A augmentedA)

  DmDm        Dm/C    Dm/B       A minorAm
We could use more of that around here that's for sure

FF            Bb majorBb       FF
But it seems that whoever has thrown her away

Bb majorBb      FF    C majorC       A7A7
Has forgotten the trash under the sink

Bb majorBb                  FF F7F7
Or was it a joke meant to buy her some time

Bb majorBb                      FF
All this citrus and pine make it harder to think

DmDm
So I say if you're playing the game

                     FF
I hope you know you won't win it

       DmDm
And I'll be sorry if they threw you away

           FF
it's just that they didn't

G minorGm                         A minorAm
She says "Boy, you'd better take it back right now and I mean it"

(Violin solo, ya-da,da da part)

She puts my body away

Bb majorBb      FF    C majorC       A7A7
Then chases my mind up to the roof

  Bb majorBb            FF F7F7
It jumps in the gutter but she pulls it out

Bb majorBb                   FF
And it's all part of having a man in the house

DmDm               A minorAm
It jumps in the gutter she pulls it out

And it's all part of having a man in the house
