Tabbed by: SirRotenous
Tuning: Standard

This is great up-tempo jam by John 
Craigie. I am not sure if he uses 
the simple chords I have listed here
 or
slight variations on them, but it 
sounds good with these so I thought 
I would start there, and if anyone 
has
other ideas I've love to see them. 
This is my first time trying to make
 a strumming pattern as part of a 
chord
sheet, so feedback would be 
appreciated there as well. I think 
it sounds pretty good. Feel free to 
play other
strumming patterns if that one 
doesn't work for you, the song will 
still sound good!

There are short instrumental jams 
after each chorus, he just stays on 
G as the solo guitar goes.


[Intro]

G (with included strumming pattern) 
x4


[Verse 1]
G
I slept through the earthquake that 
leveled this town

I won't sleep through the next one 
I’m wide awake now
            C7
And all the drugs in this world 
couldn't calm me down
        G
All the girls in this city couldn't 
turn me around
  D
Except for this one chick, she knows
 who she is
           C7
She got me speaking in tongues every
 time we kiss
            D
But I ain’t ready for her, she ain't
 ready for me
           C7
We'll meet back up when we're old 
when there ain't nothing left to see


[Chorus]
   G
ah yeah
Continúa después del anuncio
                  C7          
I weep when I'm alone, I smile 
             G
through the rest
                D               C7
I laugh cause I know the truth,   
                     G
  Every light is surrounded by 
darkness


[Verse 2]
G
I stole a bunch of shit from ol' 
Blaze Foley

He's dead now and I’m all alone
          C7
I’ve been listening to Donovan 
they're kicking my ass
          G
I’ve been singing to these hipsters,
 they ain't singing back
    D
I'd love to tell you all the things 
I've seen
        C7
But the truth is something that you 
never could believe
      D
And I ain’t gonna be there when you 
die
        C7
I'll be holding up the candle to 
god's bloodshot eyes


[Chorus]
   G
ah yeah
                  C7          
I weep when I'm alone, I smile 
             G
through the rest
                D               C7
I laugh cause I know the truth,   
                     G
  Every light is surrounded by 
darkness


[Verse 3]
G
Y'all got your groupies they hang 
and they linger

I've got bucket list grandmas and 
young male folk singers
C7
Asking me questions trying to get 
some gigs
       G
I say, don't be in such a hurry to 
lose everything
        D
Cause I binged last night and I'm 
starving today
        C7
In this goddamned job there ain't no
 consistency


[Chorus]
   G
ah yeah
                  C7          
I weep when I'm alone, I smile 
             G
through the rest
                D               C7
I laugh cause I know the truth,   
                     G
  Every light is surrounded by 
darkness


[Verse 4]
G
If you see my mama don't tell her 
I'm this skinny

If you see my mama don't tell her 
bout my fall
       C7
If you see my mama maybe the best 
thing
      G
Is to not tell my mama that you saw 
me at all
       D
If the cancer don't kill us then the
 texting will
          C7
Trying to dial in a bone driving off
 some cliff


[Chorus]
   G
ah yeah
                  C7          
I weep when I'm alone, I smile 
             G
through the rest
                D               C7
I laugh cause I know the truth,   
                     G
  Every light is surrounded by 
darkness
