The Belly Of Your Bedroom
The Smith Street Band

Hey guys,

Here is another one off my favorite album at the moment. I put up the Self Control tab
also but it was before I had an account. I saw a comment asking for more tabs so here
it goes!

This one is pretty easy once you figure out the rhythm, just a few hammer ons you should
note: Almost every time it says D, theres a hammer on the high G+G (third fret on the
tiniest string)

I really hope the formatting doesnt get butchered here.

INTRO (strum this intro, the notes I tabbed out are the ones that sound the loudest,
Wil strums the chords at the bottom of the tab [strum up AND down, especially around the D MajorD below])

VERSE 1

G+G       D MajorD          Cadd9Cadd9         D MajorD
Our hero sits unsteadily on a highway rocking chair

G+G       D MajorD          Cadd9Cadd9           D MajorD
Bottle of white wine, the wind it ruffles his well-cut hair

G+G           D MajorD         Cadd9Cadd9      D MajorD
And her eyes they focus backwards to the people that he needs

G+G                D MajorD     Cadd9Cadd9         D MajorD
They hold my instruments and my backup, and shirts with cut off sleeves


G+G           D MajorD      Cadd9Cadd9        D MajorD
She told me that she kissed you and then she told me more

G+G          D MajorD      Cadd9Cadd9        D MajorD
Our hero knows I'm angry and he knows that I'm a bore

G+G          D MajorD          Cadd9Cadd9     D MajorD
I'm sad when it is raining, when the sun comes I'm a freak

G+G         D MajorD         Cadd9Cadd9        D*
Our hero lives in mild temperatures and gets eight hours sleep

CHORUS
G+G
And I know that Im a liar

D MajorD
And I know I cant fill your desires

E minor 7Em7                    Cadd9Cadd9 (walk down C, B, A, Gmaj)
With a body that's always gonna let the both of us down

G+G
And half smiles in the belly of your bedroom

D MajorD
And half lies that I never should have told you

E minor 7Em7                 Cadd9Cadd9
My demise is only gonna let one of us down

D MajorD                G+G    D MajorD    Cadd9Cadd9      D MajorD
And darling I'm going

VERSE 2

G+G            D MajorD       Cadd9Cadd9     D MajorD
My back it aches for transport, I can hardly feel my feet
My stitches are slowly but surely falling out of me
I know I'm not exciting but I never claimed to be
And I'll live for this morning, and I will live and let you leave

 G+G             D MajorD            E minor 7Em7
And I don't understand why we have to be on standby while you're overseas

Cadd9Cadd9           D MajorD
Can't you be free and still know me?

    G+G                D MajorD
And our hero keeps his secrets locked up somewhere in his teeth

E minor 7Em7                     D*             Maybe I'll break
one or two just to hear him speak


CHORUS 2

BRIDGE

 E minor 7Em7        G+G      Cadd9Cadd9
To find somewhere for us to sleep

             E minor 7Em7       G+G      Cadd9Cadd9
And darling I'm going to work on every single inch of me

        E minor 7Em7       G+G         Cadd9Cadd9
And darling I'm going to find somewhere for us to sleep

        E minor 7Em7       G+G
And darling I'm going to keep on living, to keep on living

  Cadd9Cadd9    D MajorD
To keep on keeping on


Final Chorus
(This is where you get your friends to start clapping the drums for you, knock on your
guitar a little bit)
