This a great song off Butch Walker's latest record. It's very simple to play but sounds
great! I recommend you
lift the forefinger a few times during the Am chord, it'll sound pretty much like the
record ;)
 
 
Intro :
 
Em G C Em 2x
Oooh
 
       Em                         G
Well I married the shot girl at a spring break bar
C                                      Am
Lived it up and hit the ceiling on the floor of my car
 Em                        G

We had our first baby and I spent my last dime
C                                            Am
Trying to keep up with him growing out of clothes and out of time

If I ever grow up
      C
Can I get out of a town
            G             D
That drowns everything I love
     C
Come hell or high water
          G        D             C      D
I'm gonna leave here when I'm sober
I don't wanna be 21 and over
 
Em G C Em

Trying to see where I went wrong
       C
Getting lost inside a word

              C      D
Who I long to be

That drowns everything I love
     C
Come hell or high water
          G        D             C      D
I'm gonna leave here when I'm sober
I don't wanna be 21 and over

Almost had this one but the Am pull off thing was giving me trouble. Thanks for sharing. I also hope to see "Chrissie Hynde" here soon!

Lyrical correction as strumming / playing along can get tricky as there are some extra beats added. Chord chart here reads, "Trying to keep up with him growing out of clothes and out of time." The lyric (according to the liner notes), is actually, "Trying to grow out of clothes and from growing out of time." Other than that, appreciate the entry. Are you going to tab out anything else from "Afraid Of Ghosts"? Would love to see the title track, "Chrissie Hynde", "Bed On Fire", etc. Thank you!!
