Bloodline Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band
Tab by Brian Ramirez
Standard tuning
This is my first tab but Im 90% sure this is correct.
The only questionable parts are the intro, the second chord in the bridge and
maybe a part in the chorus.
Here are the weird chords I use
[Bb/F#m] [Db/Bm] [Ab/A]
-2----------2-------------X -2----------X-------------2 -2----------4-------------2 -4----------4-------------2 -4----------4-------------X -4----------X-------------4
Intro:
[D] [A] [G] [F#m] [G] [F#m] [Em] [F#m]
[G] [F#m] [Bm-A]
Verse:
[D]Rolling around a l[A]ifetime on a [F#m]name that spells my pa[Bm]st
Carried t[D]hrough the mile[A] markers up tow[Em]ards some last[A] laugh
And if [D]fools could only pr[A]osper, I'm [F#m]afraid what they might [Bm]say
From a [D]podium built on g[A]enerations blee[Em]ding what they [A]make
Chorus:
Because h[F#m]ere it comes[(Bb/F#m)]
Watch them all j[Bm]ump right in
Tell me, h[D]ow could you refuse to float with the r[A]est of them?
You were b[Em]orn into it, there's no [G]shame if you drift
Down the blo[D]odline[A]
Interlude: D A G F#m
Verse 2:
[D]Feeling tempera[A]mental under[F#m]neath a broker sun[Bm]
A certific[D]ate of e[A]xcellence, but no p[Em]roof on your pay [A]stub
And if m[D]oney's now a pro[A]blem, I sug[F#m]gest you best beli[Bm]eve
There's ten do[D]llars on the ta[A]ble, and a million u[Em]p his sleeve[A]
Chorus 2:
And [F#m]here they come,[(Bb/F#m)]
watch them all p[Bm]ass us by
Tell me h[D]ow could you refuse to look one [A]in the eye?
Two s[Em]heets to the wind all o[G]ver again
Down the blo[D]odline[A]
Down the blo[D]odline[A]
Bridge:
[F#m] Yes, [(Bb/F#m)]it feels scary [Bm] to be ordinary
[D] In a world that don't know your name[A]
F#m (Bb/F#m) Db/Bm?
It would not be weird if I just disappeared
[D] Blowing my back out, [A] trying to hold my weight
Solo:
[Em] [G] [D] [A] [A-Ab/A]
[Em] [G] [A]
Verse 3:
[D]Looking for a d[A]octor with a [F#m]cure for a broke heart[Bm]
Seems I s[D]pent it all on a [A]miracle just to watch[Em] it fall apart[A]
Now there's no [D]room for ill-co[A]mplaining, I know it's all jus[F#m]t what it is[Bm]
Cherry-pi[D]ck my best b[A]elievers and send them[Em] off with a [A]kiss
Chorus 3:
Because t[F#m]here they go[(Bb/F#m)]
Watch them all w[Bm]ave goodbye
Tell me [D]how could you refuse to think it's a won[A]derful life?
Two [Em]sheets to the wind all o[G]ver again
Down the bl[D]oodline[A]
Down the bl[D]oodline[A]
Down the bl[D]oodline[A]
Outro:
[D] [A] [G] [F#m] [G] [A] [D]
I?ll probably tab the solo in the future but for now, enjoy!
