Resting Place(Keyboard chords)

	        
Intro: C G Em A C G A A (2x) 


Verse: 
C        G        Em 
I'm on a long sojourn 
C                G           Em 
I'm sitting here shedding my skin 
C                G        Em             A 
Don't know about inside, ugly on the outside 
C                        G                    Em 
They're all messing with me for the shape I'm in 


Bridge: 
C            G           Em 
I'm looking for a clean slate 
C             G               Em 
Just need to find a new mind state 
C              G                
Hey, let's go looking for squirrels 
Em                       A 
Let's find something to do 
C               G                  Em 
I think she's shooting it right at you 
                 A 
Look down I said right at you 


        C          G 
And the hail falls hard 
        Em            A 
And the wind whips my face 
          C           G           A         A  
And I'm a long, long way from anywhere real safe 
         C                G 
And the storm clouds are flying high 
Em               A 
Mud all over my face 
          C          G            A 
And I'm a long, long way from my resting place 



C G Em A C G A A (2x) 


Verse: 
C               G                 Em 
Hey, let's duck down this side street 
C           G              Em 
Maybe no, nobody else will see 
C           G     Em      A 
Everybody sees us as big fat bastards 
C                  G              Em 
But I can just see you looking at me 
C          G                    Em 
Ever feel like a side-show attraction 
C          G                   Em 
Ever feel like a walking infraction 
C            G       Em          A 
Some people call me Tarzan in my big, big sweats 
C               G 
Don't know just what they mean 
Em                  A 
Maybe not good, real bad I bet 

        C          G 
And the hail falls hard 
       Em            A 
And the wind whips my face 
          C           G            A         A 
And I'm a long, long way from some sheltered space 
         C                G 
And the storm clouds are flying high 
Em               A 
Mud all over my face 
           C          G           A 
And I'm a long, long way from my resting place

Bridge: 
C           G            Em 
I'm looking for a clean slate 
C             G                      Em 
Just need to find a new way, way to relate 
     C              G 
You ever feel like a street walker 
Em 
I get by being a funny talker 
     A 
All those funny jokes sting, so keep walking 

         C          G 
And the hail falls hard 
         Em           A 
And the wind whips my face 
           C          G             A        A 
And I'm a long, long way from some sheltered space 
         C                G     
And the storm clouds are flying high 
Em               A 
Mud all over my face 
           C          G          A 
And I'm a long, long way from my resting place
