D G D G D G If I tried to tell you G D You would not believe me D G And anyway, the thought of her driving G Through that park D Makes me sick A G D First time I saw her, thought I might go blind A G D That night in Boston when her eyes met mine Gmaj7 Oooh, baby, you're so dumb A Oooh, and maybe I'm no fun G A Oooh, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby...

G I know it's gonna be perfect this time A G 'Cuz you're a peach and I love you A G And look at this little girl D G D G D G D G End on G Track 4: Pink Lightning Tempo: 107 bpm Capo: 2nd fret Key: E CAPO 2ND FRET ALL CHORDS AND TABS RELATIVE TO CAPO, SONG IS IN KEY OF E This song is all piano and arrangement on the record, so i based my tab off the live version from 2017 which was played in a different key, but I adjusted the key to match the record. This first section is what you play whenever it says Dsus2 and then Bm The Bm in this case is just a Dsus2 chord with the A string 2nd fret (relative to capo) added. These chords are fingerpicked whenever they are played, with one or two exceptions. The timing is also a little quicker when hitting the 3 high strings during the arpeggio on Bm, you can hear the deliberate difference between the pacings. This "riff" or section is the centerpiece of the whole song. Dsus2 Bm G F#m Em Sometimes instead it goes from G to Dsus2 to Em and then also to A when transitioning back ......back to the Dsus2 -- Bm pattern I'll put a * next to any chords that are NOT fingerpicked OK the song goes like this! Dsus2 Bm G When I was in the gutter, you were already deeply disturbed F#m Em Dsus2 Bm G F#m There was that night I swear I heard you say you’d poisoned your father Em Between moans Dsus2 Bm So maybe he was mean and maybe he had a penchant Dsus2 Bm G F#m Em For back-handing your mother at the mere mention of love gone cold G F#m Em Like, how was she to know? Dsus2 Bm But that don’t mean it’s fine Dsus2 Bm That don’t mean it’s fine Dsus2 Bm That don’t mean it’s fine Em A To do whatever you like Dsus2 Bm (2x) G Dsus2 Em (2x) A Dsus2 Bm G F#m Em When I was in the gutter, you were no longer sober Dsus2 And I admired the grace Bm G F#m Em With which you fell off the wagon Dsus2 Bm Surrounded by the dregs of horny divorcees Dsus2 Bm Roller-blading busters in their CRVs G Dsus2 Em Come on, love G Em Are you gonna give it up, or what? Dsus2 Bm(2x) At this part the Dsus2 drags through the first part of love, before switching to G by the end of it, listen to the song to figure out the pattern, it shouldn't be too difficult. This song doesn't really have a chorus I don't know what to call these parts Em Dsus2 G If I feel no such looooooooooove Em Dsus2 G If I feel no such looooooooooove Dsus2 Bm Though I am grateful for the shelter G While it holds me in its arms A* Oh, but when I feel better A* When I feel better A* When I feel better A* Can’t tell me nothin’ Dsus2 Bm Dsus2 A Dsus2 Bm G F#m So watch me chase the sun and dream that it’s over Em And I won G F#m Em But did I love you once? G F#m Em Not so far from Pismo Dsus2 Bm And to watch you twirl on the beach G Dsus2 Em Under pink lightning G Dsus2 Em Giggling, “we’re all just recycling” G Dsus2 Em Have you dreamt my dream before? Em Dsus2 Gee, I don’t know Bm Dsus2 Bm But I’m tired and can no longer perform G Dsus2 Em But when I was down and out G F#m Em When I was down and out G F#m Em A When I was down and out Dsus2 Bm You unbuttoned your blouse Dsus2 Bm G F#m Em G F#m Em A end on Dsus2 Track 5: Better world a comin' Tempo: 100 Bpm (I used a jazz beat for the last chorus, but drum machine can't duplicate Pete Thomas:( Capo: 4th Fret Key: G#m All chords relative to the capo on the 4th fret. The bridge might sound cool fingerpicked with the right effect on. I tried to place the chords with the pace of the vocals, but it was very difficult to track in the moments of the song where there aren't words and the Chords change. Hope you enjoy this beautiful song!
