Chord Missy by The Airborne Toxic Event

this is my personal favorite song by my personal favorite band . i encourage you to buy their stuff . some other tabs have said capo on the 5th , i use it on the 4th . i’ll leave it up to you which sounds better . * * * * * * * * * * this is a huge part of getting this to sound right * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * for lack of a better term , i’ll refer to this as C7 , but i know it’s not . simply play A C , but lift your first finger . whatever the hell it is , play it like this : C7 E | - - 0 - - | B | - - 0 - - | G | - - 0 - - | D | - - 2 - - | A | - - 3 - - | E | - - 0 - - | together the verse line will be : C C7 Am G that being said , here it is : C C7 Am G missy got off the bus one day C C7 Am G in a crowded depot in downtown l . A . C C7 Am G F she looked around as if to say "i’m home" C but i’m home . C C7 Am G i find someone to love and some place to drink C C7 Am G and some time when i can just sit and think C C7 Am G F and i don’t mind if i catch the stink of these drones C lord of these drones F G said as long as i’m never alone F C C C7 Am G she had eyes as big as porceline plates C C7 Am G and skin as thin as paper drapes C C7 Am G F and she loved the lord the way an apostate loves songs F C C C7 Am G and she’d sing to him before she went to sleep C C7 Am G "i pray to you my soul to keep C C7 Am G F your shepard and i’ll be your sheep until dawn C oh until dawn" F C G F C she said "i’d follow you even if it was wrong" C C7 Am G i met her one night at the coffee shop C C7 Am G her face so wide my heart just stopped C C7 Am G F hello my dear i fear i’m not what i seem C i’m not what i seem C C7 Am G i should’ve been a better man C C7 Am G i should be more deserving than C C7 Am G F the beggar , thief , and courtesan i’ve been C oh that i’ve been F C G F C but i swear , i lie , i curse all of my dreams C C7 Am G but i swear there’s still some good in me C C7 Am G if you stuck around i think you’d see C C7 Am G F all the honest attempts at integrity i’ve been had C C7 Am G maybe if you helped me i could get it right C C7 Am G i lie awake every night C C7 Am G F staring at the cieling wondering why i feel so bad C why i feel so bad F C G F C but i swear , i swear , i swear i’ll never get sad end on C that’s about it . if it doesn’t sound right , you’re probably playing a real C7 instead of lifting your first finger . hope this helped .
