Notes - Capo 2nd Fret, CHORD SHAPES PLAYED ASSUMING THE CAPO IS 

THE NUT, mess around with the am and d chords as the weller puts in 

suttle variationseach time 7ths and stuff. The chord I called f#m7b5

sounds good in both shapes i have shown I dont know if this is the

right name but who gives a fuck it sounds good. On the g to f# move 

just hit the f# on the e string with some nice vibrato, then play the

open strings.



A basic song yes but it sounds very good when played with feeling

INTRO -

   Em                  Am Am7



I bought the paper yesterday

       D         G G/F#

And I saw the obituary

        Em                      Am Am7

And I read of how you died in pain

         D                G G/F#

Well I just couldn´t understand it

Em                 Am Am7

If I could of changed that

    D             G G/F#

The Lord knows I´d do it now

   Em                      Am Am7

But there is no going back

             D            Gmaj7     G7

And what´s done is done forever

Cmaj7     

But you were always chained

        D

And shackled by the dirt

F#m7b5

Of every small town institution

       B7

And every big town flirt



 Em Am D G G/F#



Same pattern as first time round but with lyrics below



      

And I think of what you might have been



A man of such great promise



Oh but, you seem to forget the dream

        

And the more you saw you hated

     

But let´s not talk of blame

     

For what is only natural

      

Like a moth going to a flame

    

You had a dangerous passion

    

But you were always chained

      

And shackled by the dirt



Of every small town institution

      

And every big town flirt





Em              Am Am7

All the things that you might have been

     D          G G/F#

But who am I to say?

         Em

Still I wonder

         Am                 D            G G/F#

If it´s in the cold earth you prefer to lay

Em           Am

Oh, If it´s in the cold earth

D             G G/F#

You prefer to stay

Em  



Am  D  G
