Walt Whitman Cifras

Trampled By Turtles – Walt Whitman
 
[Intro]
 
Am       C   G
Am                D
 
[Verse 1]
 
G                    D
Light it up like the city at night
C                     Am
Old dark bones in the city
G                    D                C     Am
Old Walt Whitman and borrowed alcohol
G                     D
We drove fast shaking all the way
         C            Am
Like the waves in California
G             D                       C     Am
Sorry I never know what to say at all
Em               G
   Caught in a whirlwind
Em          G
   Dry as a bone
      D                      C
And I don't think that I can make it
C             G
        On my own
 
[Chorus]
 
G     C       G
On my own, my own 
G     C       G
On my own, my own
G     C       Am      C  G
On my own, my own
 
[Break]
 
Am                    D
G           D         C
Am          G         D
C           Am        G
D           C         Am
G           D         C
Am
 
[Verse 2]
 
     G                   D
Well burning love man it never ends
  C                    Am
I tried but I couldn't make it
        G                       D                  C     Am
And your paperback lovers could never pay the bills
G                     D
worn it once and then let it go
   C             Am
Or you may never shake it
G                   D                     C     Am
End up drinking too much then poppin pills
Em              G
   Loose like a feather
Em               G
   And left here alone
    D                   C
And I don't think I can make it
      G
On my own
 
[Chorus]
 
G     C       G
On my own, my own 
G     C       G
On my own, my own
G     C       Am      C  G
On my own, my own
 
[Ending]
 
Am              D              G (Hold)
