I'm going to write the chords out as open play it however you like. I
personally like to start out with the "A2" and go from there, changing from
open to barre chord where appropriate.
[Intro]
|A C G D:|
A C G D
It's hidden far away, though someday I may tell
A C G D
The tale of mental tangle when into your world I fell
A C G D
Without you now I wander, soaking, secretly afraid
A C G
D
But in your grasp the fears don't last, though some of them have stayed
A D E D A
I wheeled around because I didn't hear what you had said
A D E D A
And saw you dancing with Elihu, up on Leemor's bed
A D E D A
And I was foggy, rather groggy, you helped me to my car
A D E | A C
G D:|
The binding belt enclosing me, a sample in a jar
A C G
D
And on the market stands unfolding, with all the willies and thier wares
A C G D
I shuffle by alert but numb to all the glances and the glares
A C G D
I think of you unheeding all the times I raised my cup
A C G D
It's now I know that you knew that I'd soon end up end up
A D E D A
I wheeled around because I didn't hear what you had said
A D E D A
And saw you dancing with Elihu up on Leemor's bed
A D E D A
And I was foggy rather groggy, you helped me to my car
A D E D |A C G D:|
The binding belt enclosing me, a sample in a jar
A C G D
You tricked me like the others, and now I don't belong
A C D
The simple smiles and good times seem all wrong
A D E D A
I wheeled around because I didn't hear what you had said
A D E D A
And saw you dancing wioth Elihu, up on Leemor's bed
A D E D A
And I was foggy, rather groogy, you helped me to my car
A D E D A C G D
The binding belt enclosing me, a sample in a jar
A C G D
Sample in a jar
A C G D
A sample in a jar
A C G D
Sample in a jar
The bridge may be off from the recording, but I play it and sing just lke
it's written and it sounds great.
The opening and verse is A, C, G, D, (That
part is right) but the second measure is incorrect. It's supposed to be A,
E, Em, D. So the inro and verse is: A, C, G, D, A, E, Em, D

version 3
Trey starts the song with:
A C G D A E Em D
H * - toggle your selector switch back
and forth :)
|----------------------------------------------|
|-10---8---8---7--------------5---5---5----3---|
|--9---9---7---7--------------6---4---4----2---|
|-11--10---9---7-----7---7----7---6---5----4---|
|----------------7-9---9-----------------------|
|----------------------------------------------|
This is done twice as an intro, then there's a drum break, and then this
same progression is used fo the verses. it's played two more
times as a verse.
The chorus goes like this:
A D E D played 4X
Then play the verse progression once (w. distortion), then 2 more times as
the second verse. then there's another chorus.
The break is:
C D A G C D E (let the E chord hang for a while)
During that hanging E, trey does a little fill like this:
H P H P H P H P H P H
|--------------------------|
|-8-9-8-9-8-9-8-9-8-9-8-9--|
|-7-9-7-9-7-9-7-9-7-9-7-9--|
|--------------------------|
|--------------------------|
|--------------------------|
Then the chorus part is played two more times. There's a solo over the verse
progression, and the song ends on a big A chord.
here's a good starting point for the solo... just a bunch of unison bends
you can play each of them twice or let it ring out. once you get to the
final unison bend, just go nuts in F#m penatonic for a few measures until
the progression starts over again
e-12-------15------10------5------12---------------|
b-12b(14)--15b(17)-10b(12)-5b(7)--12b(14)----------|
g--------------------------------------------------|
d--------------------------------------------------|
a--------------------------------------------------|
e--------------------------------------------------|
or another way it shows up a lot live
e-15---------------------------------------|
b-18b(20)-20------15-------10------17------|
g---------19b(21)-14b(16)--9b(11)--16b(18--|
d------------------------------------------|
a------------------------------------------|
e------------------------------------------|
