Subject: Chords/Lyrics to «29» by the Gin Blossoms
«29» as performed by the Gin Blossoms (written by J. Valenzuela)
From their album «New Miserable Experience»

Chords used: G:320003 C:X32010 D:XX0232 Em:022000 G/B:X20033 Am:X02210
Notes: I normally play this acoustic and without an instrumental
break/solo, so that’s how I have it laid out here…After the last two
choruses, I play the intro progression through once and end on G…a ‘|’
denotes a measure break…this is one of my faves off of NME…I hope
some others out there appreciate it, too…enjoy—Mike
INTRO: | G C | D G | Em | D |
| G C | D G | Em | D |
G C D G Em D
Time won’t stand by forever if I know it’s true
G C D G Em D
And I’ve learned not to say never or else I’ll seem the fool
G C D G Em D
Twenty-nine you’d think I’d know better…Living like a kid
G C D G Em D
When my lies may seem less than clever…is when I fall for it
C G/B Am D
CHORUS: Only time will tell if wishing wells will bring us anything
C G/B Am D
Or fade like scenes from childhood dreams—forgotten memories
| G C | D G | Em | D |
G C D G Em D
Some rides don’t have much of a finish…that’s the ride I took
G C D G Em D
Through good and bad and straight through indifference without a second look
G C D G Em D
There’s no intentions worthy of mention if we never try
G C D G Em D
So hang your hopes on rusted-out hinges…take ’em for a ride
CHORUS
G C D G Em D
Some rides don’t have much of a finish…that’s the ride I took
G C D G Em D
Through good and bad and straight through indifference without a second look
CHORUS 2X
