This is the tuning that is used on the album.

Verse:
It?s something occasionally it
subsides to nothing right there in front of
your eyes. I?d show you but it never happens when
you want it to

Chorus: (only the first time)
C E7 A#(bar 1st fret) Am
Almost always never makes the grade
Stupid lesson learned and statement made
What were you expecting?

(back to the C Am Dm G)

Chorus part 2:
A selfish act of trickery betrayed
Only meant to turn your eyes away
From everything you?ve been so absorbed in these days
I was only hoping maybe we could get away

Bridge: Am C Dm E7
I thought I made it easy on you
The answer?s just befell you
If you?re feeling bad
If you want it bad
If you?re feeling bad
If you want it bad

Back to the verse…

They have the lyrics on the web site. The chords I figured out. The A# bar chord (1st
gave me hell for a long time, but after listening to the CD over and over and then
carefully to the Austin City Limits show (the camera cuts his hands out of the frame at
the right time to miss the chord) several times, I got the chord progression down.

Pre-chorus:
And no matter what you try man
You’re never gonna tear me down
When the only blame you cast is your own
And your only guarantee is your fear of the unknown
If you don’t cut your losses before you get lost
They’re never going to leave you alone

Verse:
But there’s bits of advice I’ll repeat only twice
After that you can fend for yourself
If you think that your shoes couldn’t find better use
They?ll fit just about anyone else

Pre-chorus:
You need to face up and fold
Or deal with her hanging down

Chorus:
Make up your mind
Are you in are you out
I’ve no patience for your impetuous doubt

Pre-chorus:(same as above)
When the only blame you cast is your own
And your only guarantee is your fear of the unknown
If you don’t cut your losses before you get lost
They’re never going to leave you alone
No

Solo Am F C G X2

Verse:
I’ve had less than my fair share of lucky breaks
And enough of this fooling around
I’ve got one last chance to get rid of my past
And bury it deep in the ground

Chorus:
Make up your mind
Are you in are you out
You think I’da served as a face in the crowd?

Verse:
You want the truth to be told
And all your makeshift concerns are out of your control
If you don’t pick your feet up to come back around
You get stuck in my way you get round

Pre-chorus:
When the only blame you cast is your own
And your only guarantee is your fear of the unknown
If you don’t cut your losses before you get lost
They’re never going to leave you alone
Leave you alone

Tabbed by James Dean

We should overcome
There’s enough at stake
For us to tear the walls down and escape

Leave it all behind
Erase and start anew
It’s not a question if it’s just what we should do
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/w/what_made_milwaukee_famous/the_other_side_crd.html )
There’s hope for anyone on the other side
What’s the use in hope if we’re afraid of trying?

We should understand
Try to sympathize
With the kind of people we despise

There’s nothing left to lose
Except for compromise
Looking at the world through someone else’s eyes

We’ve got a lot to learn from the other side
We’re too proud to see what we’re busy denying

(Solo – same progression as verse)

There’s salvation waiting on the other side
We don’t want to live but we’re afraid of dying

Life is what you choose
Love is what you make
Success is based on chances that you take

We’re the ones to blame
If absolution is denied
‘Cause we were so concerned about the other side (End on C)

Great song by a relatively unknown band. Buy their record!

(Verse)
If you’re ever anywhere ‘round here
just come back I’ll give you everything you need this time
I promise
not so much the way you hurt me
it’s more like the way you make me want to hurt m[Am/B]yself

When you show up it’s like a landmine
close enough to leave indelible scars
adhered to one
such impressionable person
don’t say names
protect the innocent
he sure needs a break

what if everyone’s gotta get back
just in time, smoke that last cigarette
you’re still lingering round the set
tryin to set me off

(verse chords)
Maybe we can take some time and work this out
I really think the duties here are the same
make it bearable, to be careful
with eachother’s emotions

the only way to find out what you’re doing
is for you to envy me
then we can both stay int’rested

(chorus)
oh Char[E/B]lena
maybe you should write this down
so [E/B]we can get it right next time around
No, Char[E/B]lena
It’s not as simple as it sounds
to [E/B]keep your feet planted on common ground

(verse chords)
If anyone knows you I do
and if anyone can forgive you well I’d try to
but you keep on doing that thing to me
it’s like you’re dragging me down into your disease
and can’t you see that it’s bringing me to my knees

what if we could get it all back
the same way it was before you attacked
all evidence of decency in me
and left me in the debris

(chorus chords)
So, Charlena
maybe you could sort this out
and tell me how you feel about it now

oh Charlena
maybe you should just sit down
I’m not sure that it’s worth this anyhow.
