Incubus Pardon Me Acoustic Chords by Dustin Prinz

_ _ _ _ All right, this next song that I'm going to cover is from a band that has been a huge influence on me for at least
the last 10 years of my life.
I remember from the very moment that I put this album in the CD player,
it completely changed my direction that I was going with music and
it just blew me away to be honest.
[Cm] So this song is called Pardon Me and it's from Incubus.
_ [Ab] Pardon me while [Eb] I burst
_ _ _ _ Pardon me while [Cm] I burst
[Eb] _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ [Eb] _

[Eb] _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ [F]
A decade ago, I never [Gb] thought I would be at 23 on the verge of spontaneous combustion
[G] What was me?
But I [Bb] guess that goes with [Eb] the territory and ominous landscape of never-ending [Cm] calamity
I [Gm] need you to hear, I need you to see that I have had but I can take, and exploding seems like a [Dm] definite
[F] possibility
_ _ [Eb]
to me
_ [Cm] So [Bb] pardon me while [Eb] I burst [C] into [Cm] flames
[Bb] I've had enough of [Eb] the world [C] and its [Cm] people's mindless games
[Eb] So pardon me while [Bb] I burn and rise [Cm] above the [Eb] flames
Pardon me, [Bb] pardon me
[Eb] Don't ever be the same
Two [G] _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ [F] _ days ago, I [Gb] was having a good time
Reading a look in a book and I saw a picture of a guy frowned up [Cm] above his knees
Said [Bb] I can relate
[Gb] Cause lately I've been thinking of combustion as a welcome [Gm] vacation from
Burdens of the planet, earth, and gravity and hypocrisy and the perils of [Dm] being in 3D
[Bb] But thinking so much differently
[Eb] _ _ _ [Cm] I'll
Pardon [Bb] me while [Eb] I burst
[C] _ _ [Cm] Into flames
I've [Bb] had enough
Of [Eb] the world [C] and its [Cm] people's mindless games
So [Eb] pardon me [Bb] while I burn and rise above [Cm] the flames
[Eb] Pardon me, pardon [Bb] me
Don't ever [Eb] be the same
Never be the same [Cm] Yeah
_ [Eb] _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Cm] _ [Eb] Pardon me while I burst Into flames
Pardon me while I burn
Pardon me, pardon me, pardon me _ _
_ [Bb] Pardon me [Eb] while I burst [Eb] Into flames
[Bb] I've had enough
[Eb] Of the world and its [Cm] people's mindless games
[Eb] So pardon me [Bb] while I burn and [Eb] rise above the flames
Pardon me, [Bb] pardon me
Don't [Ebm] ever be [Cm] the same
