Can You Tell by Ra Ra Riot 





             Can You Tell





VERSE CHORDS:

The basic chord structure of the song is -
A (x2) Bm C#m

timing is pretty simple -

        Oh      have I been     too dis-        creet?
A               Bm              C#m             A

        How     long am I sup-  posed to        wait?
A               Bm              C#m             A

        I       think about you nightl-         y
A               Bm              C#m             A

     Oh can you tell    I'm     lo-     sing    sleep?
A               Bm              C#m             A

it sounds good if you slowly strum the Bm and C#m on an acoustic.
play it in E-shape, barred 5-7-9 (sounds nice alongside the record).

Can You Tell by Ra Ra Riot
Capo 2nd

G    Am          Bm        G
     Have I been too discreet
Am            Bm        G
How long am I supposed to wait
Am            Bm        G
I think about you nightly
Am            Bm        G
Oh can you tell I'm losing sleep
 
Am            Bm        G     
What am I supposed to do
Am            Bm        G
It's hard to stay cool
Am            Bm        G
When you smile at me
    Am            Bm        G
And I get nervous every time you speak 

G                    Em
My bed's too big for just me
                     C        
When you turn your eyes
D                 G 
I promise I won't care
Am            Bm        G
Standing by your sister fair
 
Am            Bm        G
Oh baby baby baby please
Am            Bm        G
My heart sinks to my feet 
Am            Bm        G
What am I supposed to do
Am            Bm        G
I think about you nightly 

G                    Em
My bed's too big for just me
                     C        
When you turn your eyes
D                 G 
I promise I won't care
Am            Bm        G
Standing by your sister fair
Am            Bm        G
Standing by your sister fair
Am            Bm        G
Standing by your sister fair

Am, Bm, G, Am, Bm 
 
Em                  C
When I look in your eyes 
D              Em
I tend to lose my thoughts 
Em                  C
Don't forget your stare
D              Em
Oh what was that you said 
Em                  C
Would you let me know 
D              Em
'Cause I can't read your mind 
Em            C
Oh can you tell 
D               G
I can't even explain 

Am, Bm, G x3

Am            Bm        G
Oh baby I can't even explain 
Am            Bm        G
What am I supposed to do
Am            Bm        G
It's hard to stay cool 
Am            Bm        G
When you smile at me 
Am            Bm        G
And I get nervous every time you speak 
Am            Bm        G
Oh, standing by your sister fair
