Grinding The Gears Cifras

SONG:   GRINDING THE GEARS
ARTIST: JAMIE WEBSTER
TAB BY: DON CZARSKI
EMAIL:  GUITARZAN7@HOTMAIL.COM
 
NOTE: When Jamie Webster plays this he is tuned a half step down and uses no capo.
 
      However, this was a request for this song to be done in STANDARD tuning and
      so I tabbed it this way As most people play in standard tuning.
      Please keep this in mind when playing and rating this tab.
 
      Should you want to play this exactly the way Jamie Webster plays it, which is
      a half-step down and NOT in standard tuning I have included that tab at the
      very end of the other two which are in Standard tuning.
 
      The choice is yours as to what version you want to use and play.

VERSE:
F#
  Now and then I don't feel like talking
B                                            G#m
My heads a blur my feet won't start walking round
    B                     F#   F#
I think I must be coming down
 
 
VERSE:
F#
Can't seem to shake this feel of tension
B
A great suspense of this new dimension
 G#m      B                          F#    F#
False, I need to think beyond these walls
 
 
VERSE:
 F#
From time to time it gets a little bit scary
B
Oh, how life can be so contrary
G#m                  B                    F#   F#
This, it's all I've wanted am I taking a piss
 
 
CHORUS:
B
Sometimes  I like to look outside
            D#m                           D#m
It makes me feel that there's an easier way
B
I guess it makes no sense to run and hide
            C#                        C# C#   C# C#sus4 C# C# C#  C#sus4 C#
You got to face it at the end of the day
 
 
VERSE:
F#
It's all games and it's all confusion
B
Made them wait an recreate illusion
G#m       B                             F#   F#
Don't let go you know it more then you know
 
 
VERSE:
  F#
'Cause life will knock you down and it won't warn you
B
But there's another day around the corner
G#m           B                         F#    F#
You, you got what it takes to pull on through
 
 
CHORUS:

Sometimes  I like to look outside

BREAK:
C#  D#m               B                           F#
Ah ahhhh, maybe it's time you start grinding the gears
C#  D#m                 B                     F#  F#
Ah ahhhh or maybe it's time to go and make my way
C#  D#m            C#
Ah ahhhh they all know
        F#            C#         D#m   D#m
Take me car from the side of the road
 
 
OUTRO:
               B
And take the blinkers off your kipper
