Chords:

Note: The /F# /G# /A markings all denote neat little bass lines that always
lead into the chord on the following line. So, even though I wrote
them on the end of each line, the bass lines may occur over the top of some
of the words that come before the first chord on the following line.
In the first line of Verse 1, for instance, the /F# occurs after the word
“clear,” but the /G# actually occurs on the word “And.”

Intro
strum E chord (2 measures of 4/4)

Verse 1

Her eyes are light and clear[/F#][/G#]
And fearless like Chicago winds in the winter time[/A][/G#][/F#]

She’s gonna find another way back home
It’s written in her blood, oh it’s written in her bones

Verse 2
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/l/lucius/wildewoman_crd.html )
Her smile is sneaky like a fiery fox[/F#][/G#]
It’s that look that tells you she’s up to no good at all[/A][/G#][/F#]
And she’ll say whatever’s on her mind[/F#][/G#]
They’re unspeakable things and she’ll speak them in vain
And you can’t help but wish you had [/A]bolder things to say[/G#][/F#]

Oh they had a field day
Oh they had a, oh they had a field day
Oh they had a field day, didn’t they?

Oh they had a field day
Oh they had a, oh they had a field day
Oh they had a field day, didn’t they, wouldn’t they?

And all you had to do was shut your mouth
Genevieve, Genevieve
Could it have been something you said?

We were only kids then
I have not forgotten what you did it’s
Just as clear as if it were yesterday, yesterday

I haven’t rose above this
With what you did it’s fair to hold a grudge it’s
Now my turn to call you out Genevieve, and they will see

That all you had to do was shut your mouth
Genevieve, Genevieve
Could it have been something you said?

You could say you didn’t know what everybody knows
You could say that no one told you
So be the one who tells it right

It’s nothing new, what you put in is what you get
Don’t act surprised, we all know that so don’t forget it
Makes no difference now, it’s true, darling I’m through with you

Genevieve, Genevieve
Could it have been something you said?
Genevieve, Genevieve
Could it have been something you said?

Something you said, something you said?
Something you said, something you said?
Something you said?

B A E G E (x2)

“Are we done?”

Beautiful song by Lucius, these chords should be mostly right, listen to the song for
the strumming patterns. You won’t regret it.
Intro:

Verse:
I’m your dolly
Stuffed with extra baggage
F#m E B (one strum, let it hang)
Lay me down to shut my eyes
Beaded gazes
Lead you nowhere anyways
Press on my heart, I will say
Press on my heart I will say
(fiddle around with the B)
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/l/lucius/go_home_crd.html )
(Chords repeat for other verses)
I am lonely
With a static smile
I think my stitching’s coming loose
I’m hard headed,
But completely soft inside
I’m all wound up and still
The only thing that I can say is

Chorus:
I don’t need you anyway
I don’t need you, go home
Go home
I don’t need you anyway
I don’t need you, go home
Go home

(repeat chords from first verse)
I’m your dolly

Stuffed with extra baggage

Lay me down to shut my eyes

Beaded gazes

Lead you nowhere anyways

Press on my heart, I will say

Press on my heart I will say

Chorus

Outro:
Go Home
Go Home
(repeat 3 times)
Go Home

Intro: G D (2x)

What do you say
Is this the time
For one more try
At a happy life

So what do you say
Is this unwise
To think my fears
Will not reprise

Woo hoo hoo
Ooh hoo hoo
Ooh hoo hoo
Woo hoo hoo

Can’t be late
It’s a rising tide
Like an hour glass
Running out of time

So what do you say
What will you decide
It’s a win or lose
On a rolling die

Woo hoo hoo
Ooh hoo hoo
Ooh hoo hoo
Woo hoo hoo

Woo hoo hoo
Ooh hoo hoo
Ooh hoo hoo
Woo hoo hoo

G (single strum)
Gonna get out of the water
D
Gonna leave the storm
G
‘Cause everybody’s gotta get there somehow
D A
I won’t wait another day, another day

Woo hoo hoo
Ooh hoo hoo
Ooh hoo hoo
Woo hoo hoo

Woo hoo hoo
Ooh hoo hoo
Ooh hoo hoo
Woo hoo hoo

(Woo hoo hoo)

Won’t know ‘til we get there
(Woo hoo hoo)

You know I wanna get there
(Woo hoo hoo)

Won’t know ‘til we get there
(Woo hoo hoo)

You know I wanna get there
(Woo hoo hoo)

Won’t know ‘til we get there
(Woo hoo hoo)

You know I wanna get there
(Woo hoo hoo)

Won’t know ‘til we get there
D
(Woo hoo hoo)

You know I wanna get there

I had a dream where
You were standing there
With a gun up to my head
You were asking how it felt, to which I said
“I can not lie, there is a tingling down my spine”
You [G/F#]have revenge, I’ll have it too
What’s mine is yours and yours is mine

Then you laughed, you said I was a poet
And you loved my use of words
We had better get a move on
Or they’ll find us
My heartbeat didn’t get a moment
It was racing[G/F#] up the hill
We could be doomed
D G –> PAUSE – READY FOR THIS CHORUS? OH MYYYY
Time’s after us, we’re after time

Maybe I’ll drive myself to madness
Spinning in circles
Don’t have it figured out just yet
Maybe I’ll drive myself to madness
Spinning in circles
Don’t have it figured out just yet

Scene has changed: we’re running through the airport
Catching escalator rides
Down and up again
We never find the flight
My friend is running in her wedding dress
She left [G/F#]her gifts behind
I’ll never figure out just what we’re trying to find
I only know
D G –> PAUSE – OH BOY, GET READY-… 😉
Time’s after us, we’re after time

Maybe I’ll drive myself to madness
Spinning in circles
Don’t have it figured out just yet
Maybe I’ll drive myself to madness
Spinning in circles
Don’t have it figured out just yet

(No Guitar)
[(]Wake [)]up,[(] it'[)]s not real lif[(]e[)]
It’s not [(]livin[)]g,[(] it'[)]s not l[(]ivin[)]g proof
How do I, do I justify staying in between the lines?
There’s just no good excuse

Maybe I’ll drive myself to madness
Spinning in circles
Don’t have it figured out just yet
Maybe I’ll drive myself to madness
Spinning in circles
Don’t have it figured out just yet

(KEY CHANGE!)

Maybe I’ll drive myself to madness
Spinning in circles
Don’t have it figured out just yet

Maybe.… May- May- Maybe…
