Before You Were Born
by Toad the Wet Sprocket
from the _fear_ album
contributed by Ryan Houlette
It’s the same basic chords the whole song.
Vary it by adding hammer-ons/pull-offs.
Listen to the album to get the strumming pattern.
[verse1]
D Dsus4 G Gadd2?
How can it happen that every time
D Dsus4 G Gadd2
You ask us this question the answer seems like a lie
D Dsus4 G Gadd2
You know what what we’re saying you know what it means
Bm
And it’s always sincere god knows
A G
But it never gets through to where you need
[chorus1]
D
Before you were born someone kicked in the door
G
There’s no place for you here, stay back where you belong
D
Before you were born someone kicked in the door
G
You are not wanted here anymore
(repeat these patterns for the other verses and choruses and the 2nd solo)
[1st solo backing chords]
