Rarely Spoken - Better Than Ezra
(Written by Kevin Griffin)
(Words Transcribed by Ferlen David III)
(Music Transcribed by Douglas Kojetin - envirodug@aol.com)
NOTE: the intro and refrain are used in other places of the song
: the song starts with the intro and refrain
To make it sound better, it is good to pick the bass note
of the chord, then strum the strings.
To get the strumming correct, listen to the recording.
(I used the 99x Live X '95)
INTRO: C Em C D
REFRAIN: C G D Em C (x2)
Turn the phone booth down 
Feel the candle burn the light that is still burning
Let it out
Let it in 
Try to find the way again
Turn it up this time
Is that just how it ends this time
(REFRAIN) C G D Em C (x2)
Turn the T.V. down 
Feel along the light the word is still burning
So breathe it out
Breathe it in 
Try to find the way again
Turn it up this time
Is that just how it ends this time?
You f - e - a - r are you now
The lines are barely dry
And w h e r e are you now
And the line 
And the words 
And the thoughts are spoken now
(INTRO) C Em C D(x2)
Kick your cell-phone down 
Feel alone the light the word is still burning
So let it out
Let it in 
Try to find the way again
Turn it on sometime
Is that just how it ends this time
You f - e - a - r are you now
The lines are barely dry
And w h e r e are you now
And the line 
And the words 
And the thoughts are spoken now
D C Em Em C (x4)
(like intro but twice as long and a little different)
  
Long
Will you run...yeah
Sad road
To get you down
To get you down
(refrain) C G D Em C (x1)
The lines are barely dry
And w h e r e are you now
And the line 
And the words 
And the thoughts are spoken now
Rarely spoken 
Rarely spoken 
Woo-hoo-hoo  
Woo-hoo-hoo
Woo-hoo-hoo  
Woo-hoo-hoo
