Everybody Lets Me Down

Dinosaur Jr

Text File

J Mascis track of the John Peel Sessions album

Plenty of scope for wee flourishes and picking...

INTRO

C          D                Bm
Tales they spun make better days
        C                  
Can't explain and I can't stay
C           D          G
Please just make it go away

(Verse chords for 1 verse)

VERSE 1
G     D                 Em
Every guy walks down my street
    C                 G
Any girl they care to meet
  Am                     Em         D
I know there's something out there

G    D             Em
Any time it seemed OK
       C                 G
Had to wreck it couldn't wait
  Am                     Em          D
I know there's something better.... Oh No?

CHORUS

D* (C at 3rd fret) C C/B (pick)
Everybody lets me down
Am                       Em (Yeeha strummin'!!)
All this time I've never found
D*                C C/B
Everybody lets me down
Am                  Em            D                   G
Go outside and look around, never quite sat on the ground

VERSE 2

G     D             Em
In a pile I cry I sleep
       C                 G
In the day the same old heap
  Am                     Em         D
I know there's something out there

G       D                Em
After a while I get worn down
         C            G
How much hope am I allowed
   Am                     Em          D
How much is there left out there.... Not much?

CHORUS

OUTRO (see INTRO)

And so it goes...
