What About Everything? Carbon Leaf
What About Everything? By Carbon Leaf
This is my first tab, but i am pretty sure it is correct. It is basically a
revision of oriolesazb's,
but with a couple changes and a capo, which makes life so much easier

Verse
[G]Holiday quiet on these streets, except for some stubborn le[C]aves
That didn't fall with the [Am]fall, and now they clatter in vain[G]
Holiday sky. Midnight clear. Wind is high, hard to st[C]eer
Old muffler rumbles lik[Am]e an old fighter plane[G]
[Ab]In search of some rest. In search of a br[C]eak
[Am] [G]
Where something's always so far
What about my broken c[C]ar?
What about my life so f[Am]ar?
What about m[D]y dream?
What about,
Chorus
[C] What about[G] everything?
[Em] What about ae[D]roplanes?
[C] And what about[G] ships that drank the[Em] sea?
What about...
[C] What about the[G] moon and stars?
[Em] What about [D]soldier battle scars
[C] And all the[G] anger that they[D] eat?
[Em]I am n[D]ot in[G] need.
Verse 2
[G]Get away and come with me.
Come away with me and we'll [C]see
If I was right on that [Am]night, that a future was[G] made
Before time takes each year, like a knife cuts it [C]clear
It's school, then work and then [Am]life that just sharpens the[G] blade
I think about time for fun. I think about time for [C]play
Then I think about being [Am]done, with no resu[G]me
With no one left to blame
What about fortune and [C]fame?
What about your love to o[D]btain?
What about the ring?
What about,
Chorus

Verse 3
[G] Holiday quiet on these streets, except for some reason [C]me
The hometown harbor lights [Am]bright, the sailboats clatter in [G]vain
Holiday sky. Midnight clear. Wind is high on this p[C]ier
I find it hard to complai[D]n when compared with what about...
