South tacoma way

By neko case and her boyfriends

From furnace room lullaby

(n.case/b.connelly/j.trueblood/s.betts)

Chords transcribed by warren owen ( wozza@altcountrytab.com )

From the altcountrytab.com website which rather surprisingly

Can be found at www.altcountrytab.com

I could do with the lyrics corrected

Please visit the altcountrytab.com website!!!

I [f]put on that sweater you [c]gave me

I [am]woke up in the kitchen a [g]few minutes later

I [f]didn't know how i had [c]gotten there

Did you [g]guide me?

I [f]didn't make it to your [c]funeral

I didn't want [am]ritual or [g]resign

I just [f]wanted to hold [c]hands with

[f]j.p and [c]mary-jo

But i [f]couldn't conjure [c]tears

We're too [am]good for stupid [g]angels

Mike just [f]held his breath [c]beside me

And burned the [f]air 'til it was [c]gone

'til it was [f]gone[c]

'til it was [f]gone[g]

-1-------0-------1-------0-------1-------0-------3---- ( a bass riff is played which

-1-------1-------1-------1-------1-------1-------0---- can be replicated by doing

-2-2-0---0-------2-2-0---0-------2-2-0---0-------0---- something like this on one

-3-----3-2---0-2-3-----3-2---0-2-3-----3-2-------0---- guitar... this riff also

-3-------3-3-----3-------3-3-----3-------3-3-2-0-2-0-2 happens over the hoo-hoos

-x-------x-------x-------x-------x-------x-------3---- and the verse endings )

[f]hooo-oh -- [c]hoo hooo

[f]hooo [c]ahhhhh

[f]hooo-oh - [c]hoo hoo [g]hoo

Couldn't [f]pay my respects to a [c]dead man

Your [am]life was much more to [g]me

And i [f]chased away with [c]sticks and stones

But that [f]rage kept following [c]me

Following [f]me[c]

Following [f]me[g]

So [f]lost i would sleep in the [c]palms of your hands

In [am]dreams we were happy and [g]safe

I [f]can't comprehend the [c]ways that i miss you

They come to [f]light in my mis[c]takes

In my mis[f]takes[c]

In my mis[f]takes[g]

Now i'm [f]driving down [em]tacoma way[g]

And [c]the world turns in slow [f]motion

It's the [c]twilight of our [g]old home

And i'm [f]still in [g]love with [c]you

Oh [f]here on south [em]tacoma way[g]

[c]we've memories for [f]matinees

And the [am]tears come warm and [g]heavy

And the [f]cross-streets [g]bear your [c]name

Oh the [f]cross-streets [g]bear your [c]name
