Tom: E
On the album I'm pretty sure this is a synthisizer part, but
this is the way I think that they played it at Woodstock II.
E Bar chords primarily on the 8th and 9th frets here's the fingering:
IIIIII
XXXXXX
IIIXII
IXXIII
Use an upstrum every time, only hit the highest 3 or 4 strings.
\ - downstrum
()- softly
8th 8th
Now I'm down in it Now I'm down in it
8th
Kinda like a cloud I was up way up in the sky
8th
and I was feeling some feeling you wouldn't believe
9th 8th
Sometimes I don't believe in myself and I decided I was never coming down
8th
Just then a tiny little dot caught my eye it was just about to small to see
9th 8th
But I watched it way too long it was pulling me down
8th 9th
(chorus)
(8th) 9th 8th
I was up above it I was up above it
6th 5th\
Now I'm down in it
(8th) 9th 8th
I was up above it I was up above it
6th 5th\
Now I'm down in it
(no guitar)
Shut up so what what does it matter now
I was swimming in the haze now I crawl on the ground
And everything I never liked about you is kinda seeping into me
Try to laugh about it now but isn't it funny how everything works out
"I guess the jokes on me," she said
(chorus)
9th
I used to be so big and strong
9th
I used to know my right from wrong
I used to never be afraid
I used to be somebody
9th
I used to have something inside
9th
Now it's just this hole that's open wide
I used to want it all
I used to be somebody
(no guitar)
I'll cross my heart I'll hope to die but the needle's already in my eye
And all the world's weight is on my back, I don't even know why
What I used to think was me is just a fading memory
I looked him right in the eye and said goodbye
(play through regular chorus)
(8th) 9th 8th
I was up above it I was up above it
6th 5th\
Now I'm down in it
I was up above it
Rain rain go away come again some other day
8th 9th 6th 5th\
Rain rain go away come again some other day
8th
Rain rain go away come again some other day
8th 9th 6th 5th\
Rain rain go away come again some other day
(8th)
I was up above it
uhhhhhhhhhh
8th 9th
I was up above it
6th 5th\
uhhhhhhhhh ahh
Now I'm down in it
I was up above it
uhhhhhhhhhhh owwwwwwwwwwwwwww
Now i'm down in it
