What Went Wrong The Slackers
Band: The Slackers
Song: What Went Wrong
Album: Peculiar
A few parts of the lyrics are questionable, I couldn't find official ones. The chords are right though.
That Em to Em/Eb in the chorus is done thusly:
7 to 7
8 8
[9] [9]
[9] [9]
[7]x [6]x
Verse 1:
[G]Give me a minute to com[Bm]pose myself, it?s been
[Em]Long, long time since [C]you been gone
[G]I can still remember convers[Em]ations we had
too [D]bad that?s all that [C]now lingers on
[G]So many times I nearly [Bm]fooled myself that some?
[Em]Body like you could give a [C]damn about me
[G]But then one day you stepped in[Em]to my life,
All my str[D]ife was a fleeti[G]ng memory
Chorus:
[C]Over and over in my [Em]head at [D]night (What went [C]wrong?)
[C]Didn?t lose the battle, didn?t give [Em]up the [Em/Eb]fight (What went [C]wrong?)
[C]To let you go then didn?t [Em]make things [D]right (What went [C]wrong?)
C (speed up strumming) Cm
Can?t hide the tears from my eyes now that love?s gone and passed me by?
Verse 2:
[G]During my life I somehow [Bm]steered you wrong
[Em]From the road once again was driving [C]us way
[G]I pushed aside the things that [Em]meant so much
With [D]hope that you?d be [C]happy some day
[G]I wear regret now like the [Bm]lines on my face
[Em]Not a day passes on that you don?t [C]cross my mind (You don?t cross my mind?)
[G]Couldn?t raise the spirits of a [Em]broken heart
And chanc[D]e the ?[G]
Chorus
[C]Over and over in my [Em]head at [D]night (What went [C]wrong?)
[C]Didn?t lose the battle, didn?t give [Em]up the [Em/Eb]fight (What went [C]wrong?)
[C]To let you go then didn?t [Em]make things [D]right (What went [C]wrong?)
C (speed up strumming) Cm
Can?t hide the tears from my eyes now that love?s gone and passed me by?
Solo: One time through verse chords, once through chorus...
[C]Can?t hide the tears from my eyes now that l[Cm]ove?s gone and passed me by?
Verse 3:
[G]But then one day I gather[Bm]ed up the nerve
[Em]To trip all of those waves I vowed no[C]t to cross
[G]In for this pain that flow deep[Em] down inside
That [D]still housed the dr[C]eams that all is not lost
[G]Upon the threshold I now ma[Bm]de my ascent
[Em]towards the door I should close on [C]one careless days
[G]Without a look, just pass them b[Em]uzzer and in
That your[D] name, long gone, it faded away[G]
Chorus:
[C]Over and over in my [Em]head at [D]night (What went [C]wrong?)
[C]Didn?t lose the battle, didn?t give [Em]up the [Em/Eb]fight (What went [C]wrong?)
[C]To let you go then didn?t [Em]make things [D]right (What went [C]wrong?)
C (speed up strumming) Cm
Can?t hide the tears from my eyes now that love?s gone and passed me by?
