Subject: Dinosaur Jr. -- ``Quicksand''

``Quicksand'' by Dinosaur Jr.

Yeah, the words were a pain. I'd appreciate it if someone could help me

out there to revise this.

Anyway, very simple song. The intro chords are Em and C.

Verse:

--3----3----3----3----

--0----1----0----1----

--0----0----0----0----

--0----0----0----0----

--2----0----2----0----

--3----0----3----0----

G Gsus4 G Gsus4 (repeat)

C

I'm closer to the golden dawn, I can't believe the wagon's gone,

G Gsus4 G Gsus4

It's history...

(C, G, Gsus4 through all of the verses)

A#

I'm frightened by the total goal,

C

I'm drawing to the ragged hole(?)

G Em C

And I ain't got the wagon anymore,

C Am G Gsus4

No I ain't got the wagon anymore...

C G Gsus4 (through the verse)

I'm the twisted name...

A#

Should I leave the engine on,

C

To listen to that mountain song,

G Em C

I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thought...

C Am G

And I ain't got the wagon anymore...

G D Em

Don't believe in yourself

A D

Don't deceive with believe

Em C

The knowledge comes with deperate ease(?)

D G Em A

Ahh oh....

C G Gsus4 (through the verse)

Not too stable hangin' by a string...

A#

If I don't explain what you oughta know

C

You can tell me all about it at the next ball show

G Em C

I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thought

C Am G

And I ain't got the power anymore...

G D Em (same as before)

Don't believe in yourself...
