Our Rebellion Chords

Note: This version of the tune is arranged for C Standard tuning (C F Bb Eb C G) or two whole steps down, a
tuning Madison uses on several songs.  In this lowered tuning, most of the chord shapes are open, and the
riffs can utilize open strings, but it should also be pretty playable in standard tuning--and since the riffs
don't utilize any of the lower strings, these should be completely comparable/convertable to standard as well
(if anyone would like the standard tuning included just comment below).

[Intro]
 
C9
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
C9
What is wrong?
C9
Have you forgot I'm not a stranger?
C9
You're lead footed and head strong
        C9
And the quiet turns me into a rambler
 
 
[Chorus 1]
 
Ab                     Gm7
When it's all said and done
Ab                   Gm7   F
I'm not here looking for a fight
       Ab                Gm7
But if love is our rebellion
       C9
Put me on the front lines
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
      C9
We're miles away and rooms apart
C9
Heavy metal and Mozart
C9
I'm not trying to classify you
      C9
We're running with the cattle, drinking with the herd
C9
Living by the written word
C9
I'm not trying to simplify you
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
Ab               Gm7
I'm not the only one
Ab                    Gm7     F
Putting a bruised ego on some ice
       Ab                 Gm7
But if love is our rebellion
       C9
Put me on the front lines
 
 
[Bridge]
 
     Bb       F        Bb   F
Your eyes are checkers on a board
    Bb        F      Bb  F
But babe, I'm not competing
Bb     F        Bb      F
Who is it we're working for?
    Bb  F      Bb  F
The war or the treaty?
 
 
Cadd9                                F
You walk a fine rope, I draw a clean line
Cadd9                                                  F
You're sealed as an envelope and I give you a piece of my mind
Cadd9                                    F
  You speak in numbers and I sing in metaphor
Cadd9
  Long is the window and hidden is the door
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
Ab              Gm7
I'm not your enemy
    Ab               Gm7      F
But I cannot be your sense of pride
   Ab                Gm7
If love is our insanity
         C9
Then I'm losing my mind
         C9
Then I'm losing my mind
 
 
[Outro]
 
C9
Like drawing a picture with an oven mitt
C9
Neither one of us are seeing it
C9   F
Ooh
