Nickel Creek

Nickel Creek - This Side (correct Mandolin ) guitar chord

*NOTE: I have the Nickel Creek songbook in front of me and am taking the chords that I use from the book.

I noticed that there were a lot of requests for mandolin chords out there

so I'm posting this, but please remember that this is NOT my work and I am

taking no credit for this.

Verse 1:

E C#m7 Asus2 Bsus4

One day you'll see her and you'll know what I mean.

E C#m7 Asus2 Bsus4 B#o7

Take her or leave her, she will still be the same.

C#m7 G#7 Asus2 Bsus4

She'll not try to buy you with her time

E C#m7 Asus2 Bsus4

But nothing's the same as you will see when she's gone.

Chorus:

Asus2 Bsus4

It's foreign on this side.

C#m7 F#m7 E Asus2

And I'll not leave my home again.

Bsus4 C#m7

There's no place to hide

A#m7b5 Asus2 Bsus4

And I'm nothing but scared.

Verse 2:

You dream of colors that have never been made

You imagine songs that have never been played.

They will try to buy you and your mind

But only the curious have something to find.

Chorus:

(and the truth is a bitter friend/reasons few have I to go back again)

Verse 3:

Your first dawn blinded you, left you cursing the day.

Entrance is crucial and it's not without pain.

There's no path to follow once you're here.

Climb up the slide and then you'll slide down the stairs.

(the last chorus has some different chords)

Asus2 Bsus4

It's foreign on this side

C#m7 F#m7 E Asus2

But it feels like I'm home again.

Bsus4 C#m7

There's no place to hide

A#m7b5

But I don't think I'm scared.

Asus2 Bsus4 B#o7

There's no place to hide (there's no place to hide) but I don't think I'm scared.

C#m7 A#m7b5 A5 B5 C5 C#5 D5 D#5

There's no place to hide, but I don't think I'm scared.

I know some of those chords are kind of tricky, so here:

B#o7 F#m7 A#m7b5 A5 B5 C5 C#5 D5 D#5

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

6-----0------4-----4----3---3---4---5----6-------

4-----2------2-----2----3---5---6---7----8---------

4-----4------3-----2----3---5---6---7----8---------
