I found a transcription of this song at Nevada, but it needed a capo. My
version doesn't. Also, my intro riff transcription is different.
Anyway, enjoy!

Someone requested this a week or so ago -- sorry, it took awhile to chart:

Another day....I call and ...

      C  G       D        Em     D   Cadd9
We always say,  it won't be long,  oh, ...
(see INTRO Tab)


Another game....of putting things aside
As if we'll come....back to them sometime        (same chords as
A brace of hope....a pride of innocence          1st verse)
And you would say....something has gone wrong

 C   G       D       C   G    D
Again,  it seems we meet,  in ...
      C  G       D        Em     D   A/C#bass
We always say,  it won't be long,  ...


C  D  Bm  Em  D/F#bass  /  C  D  Em  D  A/C#bass

(play above progression twice, with vocal 'ooh's and 'aay's)


   C   G       D       C   G    D
And again,  it seems we meet,  ...
      C  G       D        Em     D   Cadd9
We always say,  it won't be long...
 Em	   D   Cadd9   Em     C   D  Dsus4 D
Something's always wrong,  ...


(play INTRO Tab, then verse progression twice to close)

----

That 'A/C#bass' chord is played like this: x4222x , or add the 'A'
bass note, like so: 54222x. Also, leading into the chorus, try a
variation of opening up the treble strings, like this: 542000.


Cool song -- hope you like my arrangement!
