The Boys Acoustic Chords

I figured out the chords from Lisa's acoustic version at Rolling Stone
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pkit53S_iRA
 
Lisa Mitchell- The Boys
Album- Warriors (lyrics taken from album booklet)
 
Tuning- Half a step down (Eb)
Transpose down twice to get chords for the original version (F   C   G continues at the bottom after
transposing, not   G    D    A)
 
[Verse 1]
N.C.
I think that I’m beginning to care...
                 G         D       A
I think that I’m beginning,  to care...    
          G                            D    A
Well, the wind blows my hair across my face,
          G                            D     A
There’s a kid on his skateboard in the Manly sun
      G                       D     A
We’re driving down the avenue
             Em          G
Past all the big houses
 
            G                        D     A
And there’s something about these streets
        G                 D             A
And the way you wear your heart on your sleeve
G            D   A              Em       G      A
Down below I see, the aquamarine...
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                 G         D       A
I think that I’m beginning,  to care...    
                 G         D       A
I think that I’m beginning,  to care...    
 
 
[Chorus]
        G
Oh, the boys, the boys
D          A             G
Driving in cars with the boys, the boys
D          A             G
Driving in cars with the boys, the boys
D          A             Em        G
Driving in cars with the boys...
 
 
[Verse 2]
    G                      D          A
The boys buy a case and we sit in the backyard
     G                        D         A
Our, hair and our skin’s all, salty and starched
    G               D        A        Em     G
The air is soft, reminds me of Indian days
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                 G         D       A
I think that I’m beginning,  to care...    
                 G         D       A
I think that I’m beginning,  to care...    
 
 
[Chorus]
        G
Oh, the boys, the boys
D          A             G
Driving in cars with the boys, the boys
D          A             G
Driving in cars with the boys, the boys
D          A             Em        A    G
Driving in cars with the boys...
 
          G
Yeah, the boys, the boys
D          A             G
Driving in cars with the boys, the boys
D          A             G
Driving in cars with the boys, the boys
D          A             Em
Driving in cars with the boys...
 
 
[Bridge]
Em           Bm       A         Em
Stay with me, stay a while...
Em           Bm       A
Stay with me, stay a while...
 
 
[Verse 3]
       G                       D         A
Well I think that your love is making me nervous,
    G                      D            A
The way your eyes hold me, standing backstage,
     G                    D        A
I’ll find my way from the old road,
                 Em       G    A
But I don’t know when...
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                 G         D       A
I think that I’m beginning,  to care...    
 
 
[Chorus]
        G
Oh, the boys, the boys
D          A             G
Driving in cars with the boys, the boys
D          A             G
Driving in cars with the boys, the boys
D          A             Em        A    G
Driving in cars with the boys...
 
          G
Yeah, the boys, the boys
D          A             G
Driving in cars with the boys, the boys
D          A             G
Driving in cars with the boys, the boys
D          A             Em       G
Driving in cars with the boys...
 
 
[Coda]
                 G         D       A
I think that I’m beginning,  to care...    
                 G         D       A
I think that I’m beginning,  to care...    
 
                 G*        D*      A*
I think that I’m beginning,  to care...
                 G*        D*      A*
I think that I’m beginning,  to care...
