These chords aren?t to fit the song exactly; I just prefer these to sing along with. To fit the song I play Em C G D. So, take your pick. This is just how I prefer to play it on Uke. Melody (I like to throw this in here and there if I?m playing with another person.) A|-----------------------------2-----4----2-----------------------------| E|----------------2-----5--------------------5----------2---------------| C|-----2----4----------------------------------------------------4------| G|----------------------------------------------------------------------| INTRO C G Am F x4 VERSE I C G You were a child Am F Crawling on your knees toward him C G Making momma so proud Am F C G But your voice is too loud Am F We like to watch you laughing C G Picking insects off of plants Am F No time to think of consequences
(Chorus) x2 C G Control yourself Am F Take only what you need from it C G Am F A family of trees wanting to be haunted VERSE II (same chord placement as 1st Verse) The water is warm, but it's sending me shivers A baby is born crying out for attention Your memories fade, like looking through a fogged mirror Decisions to decisions are made and not bought but I thought This wouldn't hurt a lot, I guess not [CHORUS] BRIDGE G F C F Am Bm G F Am [CHORUS] x4
