Start Jamming...
[Ab] Hey, I'm Kane.
Hey Kane, [Eb] nice to meet you.
Good to see ya.
Hey guys.
Does this look alright for you?
Yeah, sure, fine.
Hey, thanks for doing this.
Can you remember anything, Bob?
Uh, yeah, that'd be great.
We're just here in this [Gm] chair.
Yeah, or the stool.
Where'd you grab it?
Here.
[Abm] Too, they call it too soon to tell.
[D] I made this up walking down a [Abm] hill.
It goes, um, low gray clouds rolling over my head.
I'm walking up a hill to get my money.
I'm walking up a hill to get my fortune [Ebm] read.
I could still take rejection, but it does get [Abm] harder to do.
[Abm] I [Ebm] wish I could show you how you've hurt me in a way that wouldn't hurt you [Abm] too.
[Gb] [Ab] Ten shoes hang from a telephone wire.
I got a little money, I [Eb] could get a little higher.
I was alright a while, but you [Abm] know how it [Bb] go.
[B] [Abm] [Ebm] Everything in moderation, including [Abm] moderation, I suppose.
[Gb] [Abm] I never did like the people where I was employed.
They were all out to get me, cause I'm paranoid.
Now [Ebm] I'm working for myself, and that don't pay a [Abm] lousy dime.
If what [Ebm] we're here to do is learn to forgive, I'm gonna need [Abm] more time.
[Abm] It's too soon to tell.
[Ab] It's too [Abm] soon to tell.
It's too [Ebm] soon to tell who [Abm] I am by.
[Ebm] It's too soon to tell what's going to happen to us when we [Abm] die.
[Abm]
It's too soon to tell what we will ever avenge.
They say that living well is the best revenge.
I [Ebm] say, [Gb] bullshit.
[Ebm] Best revenge is [Abm] revenge.
[Gb] [Abm]
[Ebm] This isn't over.
We're gonna [Abm] meet again.
And good lord, if you're up there, you've sure got a [Gb] lot of nerve.
[B] It seems like even the wicked, we get worse than we deserve.
[Db] We're afraid to die, every goddamn [Ebm] one of us.
I swear to God, it's like you're making fun [Abm] of us.
Not worth keeping, or too good to keep.
[Ebm] You got a better kind of secret.
You [Abm] better wait till I'm asleep.
[Ebm] And if you're so God almighty, well, then what's with all this [Abm] mystery?
Yes, [Eb] I would love to trust you, buddy, but you are clearly
keeping secrets [Abm] from me.
[Gb] [Abm] It's too soon to tell.
[Abm] It's too soon to tell.
Too soon [Ebm] to tell by [Abm] and [Bb] by.
[Abm] Yes, [Ebm] it's too soon to tell what's going to happen to you when [Abm] you die.
[Gb] [Abm] At the fortune teller's on the second floor.
In bright red letters hanging off the door.
It [Eb] said, closed.
I think it might have been some [Abm] kind of sign.
[Gb] [Abm] Don't [Dbm] give up on me, baby.
I think I could be losing [Eb] my mind.
[Ab] I've just met too many people that I love too much.
They are scattered all over.
[Dbm] I can never stay in touch with them.
I've been traveling, [Ab] traveling [Eb] forever it seems.
[D] You too [Ab] will wake up one [Db] morning with a lot more [Eb] memories than dreams.
[Gb]
[Abm] Low gray clouds rolling over [Gb] my head.
[Abm] I'm walking down a hill without my fortune [Ebm] read.
I can still take rejection, but it does get hard [Abm] to do.
Wish [Ebm] I could show you how you've hurt me in a way that wouldn't hurt [Abm] you too.
I wish [Ebm] I could show you how you've hurt me in a way that wouldn't hurt [Abm] you too.
