(Verse 1)
Am A11 Am
I don't want to be second best
E G Am A11 Am E G
Don't want to stand in line
E G Am A11 Am
Don't want to fall behind
E G Am A11 Am
Am Dadd9...
Don't want to get caught out
Dm6..
Don't want to do without
Am A11 Am E G Am A11 Am
Am F/E.. Gsus2..
And the lesson I must learn
E11/B9 Am A11 Am
Is that I've got to wait my turn
E G Am A11 Am
E G Am A11 Am
E G Am A11 Am
(Verse 2) - repeat Verse1
Looks like I got to be hot and cold
I got to be taught and told
Got to be good as gold
But perfectly honest
I think it would be good for me
Coz it's a hindrance to my health
I'm a stranger to myself
(Chorus)
Dadd9 Am Asus Am7/G Dadd9
Miniature disasters and minor catastrophoes
Am A11 Am
Bring me to my knees
F/E
Well I must be my own master
Gsus2 E11/B9 Am Am7 E7#9
Or a miniature disaster will be
It will be the death of me
(Verse 3) - repeat Verse1
I don't have to raise my voice
Don't have to be underhand
Just got to understand
That it's gonna be up and down
It's gonna be lost and found
And I can't take to the sky
Before I like it on the ground
(Bridge)
F/E..
And i need to be patient
Gsus2
And i need to be brave
E11/B9
Need to discover
Am Am7
How i need to behave
F/E
And I'll find out the answers
Gsus E11/B9
When i know what to ask
A/Fdim7
But i speak a different language
E7#9
And everybody's talking too fast
(Chorus) - repeat Chorus
Miniature disasters and minor catastrophoes
Bring me to my knees
Well I must be my own master
I've got to run a little faster
I need to know I'll last if a little
Miniature disaster hits me
It could be the death of me
Dadd9... Dm6.. F/E.. Gsus2.. E11/B9 E7#9

Excellent tab. The addition of a few jazzy chords in this song spices it up, this is how the song should be played.
you know this is the basic way of playing it but if you watch KT's live performance of Miniature Disasters on the Eye To The Telescope deluxe edition, she plays Am, All, Am, then Em, not E, then G. Then she does some things with the other chords like "don't want to get caught out..." She ends with a D5 chord if i'm not to be mistaken, and she strums it slowly.
Yep deffo an em not an E but good job anyway, spacings a bit off but easily figured out, nice one.
