Roches

Roches - One Season guitar chord

i love this song. wish i wrote it.

hard to sing, though,

unless you've got pitch-perfect 3 part harmony...

i LOVE the dissonant verses , which i used to drive my ex-landlady

crazy listening to at top volume 15 years ago (but it served her

right,as she'd make me nuts listening to opera at 1000 decibles...)

i think this is right, but maggie tunes her guitar down to,

i think, Eb (if you want to play along w/the recording).

corrections, suggestions, etc. are welcome.

One Season

      -The Roches (Maggie)

(guitar tuned down to Eb !!)

A          D

One season I was born

E              D

fell down like an acorn

A        F#m

I am the only tree

D         E       A

and everybody leaves

            D             A    D

I've got to get away from you

A    D     A    D

A           D

Bud growing up at me

E         D

resentful face I see

A             F#m

a harsh light seems to damn you

D         E          A

is it because I am you?

             D            A   D

I've got to get away from you

A           D                A   D

i need to find a love that's true

A                     D

Loose leaf lay on the bed

E             D      

hair falling around her head

A             F#m

I watched her from the shore

D           E      A

I can't do any more

            D             A   D

I've got to get away from you

A             D                A   D

I'll come and visit you in the zoo

(dissonant verse!)

A         D

We go on arguing

E          D

no one can say a thing

A             F#m

set down your key and trumpet

D         E                A

go have a dream and hump it

            D             A    D

I've got to get away from you

A              D               A      D

you don't know what you put me through

G  C  D C  G..Em...Am... C  G  C...G     E

aahhhh....

A              D

Prized fighter with bruised pride

E           D

a fuse blew when you tried

A          F#m

to fix the worn out wire

D           E            A

and set the house on fire

            D             A    D

I've got to get away from you

A       D             A    D

if only for a day or two

A              D               A      D

you don't know what you put me through

A             D                A   D

I'll come and visit you in the zoo

A           D                A   D

I need to find a love that's true

A           D             A   D

I want  to get away with you
