Tabbed by: Ernie
First time posting a song so go really hard on me.
I watched the Pickathon 2014 video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lerW7bCbeg) to get these chords and
lyrics. The lyrics I did by ear so let me know if I messed them up. Also this is a really hard song to
play so if you can even get close you must be an awesome guitar player! Good work!

He plugs in his acoustic to give it some grit. If I figure out the levels,
I'll post them, if I remember.
The first stanza is muted.
Verse:
G+G
Well these odysseys are outta sync
but lord what must his family think
B minorBm
and you must be getting his feathers wet.
C minorCm
But she always seems to be the talk
Until she drops you like a rock
G+G D MajorD C majorC
You should?ve been a better friend to him.
G+G
Well I dusted all the bones were in my yard
I fixed the screen door, raised the barn
B minorBm
But still you call me from the moon
Every single afternoon
C minorCm
Tell me all about the astronauts you come to love
And how the earth looks from above
G+G D MajorD C majorC
And how I should?ve been a better friend to you.
G+G C majorC G+G B5B5
But I never seen life as a chore, a treasure for to find
E minorEm C majorC D7#9D7#9 x 3
I?ve read the news, abused the booze, and often wondered why
G+G C majorC G+G B5B5
My smile remains though I'm thinking pains the average passerby
E minorEm
Well they?ll sink like stones into their homes away from teeth like mine.
Whoo!! (Like Shakey Does) Follows the same progression as the verse: G+G - B minorBm - C minorCm - G+G - D MajorD - C majorC
G+G
Well I?m sure I came to hate my skin and all the holes you?re digging in
B minorBm
The way you let my leg waltz through each way
C minorCm
by your side
G+G D MajorD G+G
well you should?ve been a better friend of mine
G+G
Well I saw in you a brand new bird the song of which I never heard
B minorBm
You know it was a melody so fine that whole world would find
C minorCm
And it?s a tune to give the boys the blues and turn the horses into glue
G+G D MajorD C majorC
You know I should?ve been a better friend to you
G+G D MajorD C majorC
Yeah I should have been a better friend to you
G+G C majorC G+G B5B5
But I never seen life as a chore, a treasure for to find
E minorEm C majorC D7#9D7#9 x 3
I?ve read the news, abused the booze, and often wondered why?
G+G C majorC G+G B5B5
My smile remains though I'm thinking pains the average passerby
E minorEm
Well they?ll sink like stones into their homes away from teeth like mine.
Whoo!!
