Baobabs Chords by Regina Spektor

Baobabs chords by Regina Spektor

Guitar chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Key: Db

Although it looks like there's a lot of chords this song is quite easy as it's mainly a progression downward
from Db to Eb, then Ab and then it begins again. The verses follow a different structure but it's more
straightforward. Kinda.

Intro:
Dbadd9 Ab6/C Bbm7 Db/Ab / Gbadd9 Db/F Ebm7
Dbadd9 Ab6/C Bbm7 Db/Ab / Gbadd9 Db/F Ebm7

Chorus:
Db  Ab/C  Bbm7 Db/Ab
You have tamed  me
Gbadd9 Db/F     Ebm7 Ab
Now    you must take me
Db  Ab/C     Bbm7 Db/Ab
How am I supposed to be
 Gbadd9 Db/F     Ebm7  Ab
I don't have my thorns now
   Db  Ab/C Bbm7 Db/Ab
I feel them sprouting
       Gbadd9        Db/F       Ebm7  Ab
They'll grow right though if I don't watch it
         Db          Ab/C         Bbm7 Db/Ab
They'll grow right through even if I   watch it
      Gbadd9  Db/F    Ebm7    Ab
And a sunset couldn't save me now

         Gb6         Ab                  Bbm7       Db
And they know about buying shit and they know about sex

And they know about careers and about the real deals
              Gb6           Ab             Bbm7              Db
