Oh Well Okay by Elliott Smith





                            Oh Well Okay








STANDARD TUNNING


Bb            Bb/A
   Here's the silhouette
    Gm                 Bb      Bb/A
the face always turned away
Gm              Gm/E          Gm/Eb        (This part can be tricky, check the end for
advice)
   the bleeding color gone to black
             Bb   Bb/A
dying like a day
G                   Cm              Cm/Bb Ab
   couldn't figure out what made you so unhappy
           Eb          Db    Cm
shook your head to say no no no
    Cm/Bb         Ab
and stopped for a spell
    Cm          F
and stayed that way
   G     Fm
oh well, okay


Bb       Bb/A             Gm              Bb      Bb/A
   i got pictures, i just don't see it anymore
Gm          Gm/E      Gm/Eb                Bb     Bb/A
   climbing hour upon hour through a total bore
G                 Cm           Cm/Bb  Ab
   with the one i keep where it never fades
       Eb          Db          Cm
in the safety of a pitch black mind
   Cm/Bb   Ab        Cm         F
an airless cell that blocks the day
   G     Fm
oh well, okay

SOLO (with slide, chords above tab) NOTE: The last Fm over 'okay' is the first chord in
solo.
