Magnet’s Coil
by Sebadoh, from the album Bakesale
tuning: all strings 1/2 step down (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb)
chords and lyrics transcribed by John Spencer
(Cutting little tune but pretty irresistable. Not sure of
all the lyrics.)
(intro)
E G# A A
low E—0—0-0—0-0—4—4-4—4-4—5—5-5—5-5—5—5-5—5-5
E G# A
I gotta find a way to loosen up
E B* A
I am wound tighter than a magnet’s coil
E G# A
the longer I try to keep my mouth shut
E B A
the sooner little brain is gonna boil (?)
E G# A
and if you turn back just to fuck me up
E B* A
I’ll cut you loose and watch you fall
E G# A
it feels good, just to bitch about it
E B A
scratch that itch until it bleeds
A B*
but I don’t really want to lose you
A B*
and I can’t play the silent game
A B*
’cause when I talk the silence follows
A B*
you never say what’s on your mind
E G# A
if you laugh to see me so defenceless
E B* A
I’ll know I’ve made another enemy
E G# A
nobody wants another mirror on their views (?)
E B A
I guess that’s all you are to me
A B*
but I don’t really want to lose this
A B*
does it all depend on you?
A B*
it’s always personal between us
A B*
you won’t say what’s on your mind
B*
what’s on your mind
E
what’s on your mind
chords:
E 0221xx
G# 4665xx

=======================
I’m not going to include the lyrics to this song because
they’ve been posted everywhere, ie:Nevada(OLGA). Anyway
they’re not hard to figure out. This is just an
addition to the Bakesale version posted at OLGA.
