I Was Born In Omaha by The Gloria Record




                           I Was Born In Omaha






Tuning: Standard

I use two different G chords throughout the song. For the verses I use the open 320003 
the two progression changes when it switches to G-Bm-A or the outro Bm-A-G, I use
barre chord 355433. I put an asterisk where to use the barre chord.


D                  G
  I was born in Omaha
                      Bm
In my mother's tired arms
                          A
After all our fight was gone
                              D
I bet it felt good just to lie there
                       G
Drinking in the warm light
                           Bm
And breathing through the tubes
                          A                    G
As our lovers filled the room with conversation

G

D                        G
  I was named to bear you like
                Bm
A float in a parade
              A                  D
My piano fingers tugging at the cord
                  G
And so much extra skin
                           Bm
That I still can't fill it in
                           A
Wonder whose it could have been
                               G*
'Cause it don't fit me comfortably
                      Bm
And the nurses stopping in
                    A
To see that you are fine
G*               Bm
   To open up the blinds
                    A
And shower you with sunshine

D                  G
  I was born in Omaha
                          Bm
Born to steal her skeptic heart
              A                   D
My piano fingers tugging at the cord
                        G
'Cause life in a bubble can be
                   Bm
The sweetest thing sometimes
                            A
With the world just passing by
                   G
Outside your window

I was born in Omaha 
In my mother's tired arms 
After all our fight was gone 
I bet it felt good just to lie there 
Drinking in the warm lights 
And breathing through the tubes 
As our lovers filled the room with conversation 
I was named to bear you like 
A float in a parade 
My piano fingers tugging at the chord 
And so much extra skin 
That I still can't fill it in 
Wonder whose it could have been 
'Cause it don't fit me comfortably 
And the nurses stopping in 
To see that you are fine 
To open up the blinds 
And shower you with sunshine 
I was born in Omaha 
To steal her skeptic heart 
My piano fingers tugging at the chord 
'Cause life in a bubble can be 
The sweetest thing sometimes 
With the world just passing by 
Outside your window

Dream over...
