This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

"APOLOGY"

by the Posies

From: John Waclo (johncw@nauticom.net)

capo 2nd fret: play chords as if capoed 2nd fret = open strings

(in other words the Am listed in the chords below would be played

as a Bm were the capo not in use.)

intro: Am E C#m F#

Am C#m7 B Bm

D E

And I asked again--

A A/G# F#m

Would it be alright for me

B E

To acquire someone else's disenchantment

A A/G# F#m

I could reconnect to another time and place

B

Reconsider letting loose and running rampant

CHORUS:

Am E C#m F#

Take me back -- teach me

Am C#m7 B Bm D E

Take me back -- apology

I never meant to be--

A A/G# F#m

And I won't take much with me

B E

Just an open mind and a second nature

A A/G# F#m

Don't forget you might just drink the waaaaaaaaater

B

If it illustrates the nonesuch nomenclature...

SOLO CHORDS: Am E C#m F#

Am C#m7 B Bm

A B E F#m

So push the button ring the bell

A B E F#m

Behold your tongue it's served you well

Am E C#m F#

Enough to bring you here, won't you please

CHORUS:

Am E C#m F#

Take me back -- teach me

Am C#m7 B Bm D E

Take me back -- apology

If we fail to touch--

A A/G# F#m

There will be no backlogged time

B E

You can make believe it (like a bunch of postcards)

A A/G# F#m

And the stones will read in a modest faaaaaaaaaashion

B

Don't expect too much -- you might be disappointed

CHORUS:

Am E C#m F#

Take me back -- teach me

Am C#m7 B Bm

Take me back -- apology

Am E C#m F#

Take me back -- teach me

Am C#m7 B Bm

Take me back -- apology

Am E C#m F#

AAhhh AAhhh AAhhh

Am C#m7 B Bm

AAhhh AAhhh AAhhh

Am E C#m F#

MMmmmm MMmmmm MMmmmm

Am C#m7 B Bm

MMmmmm MMmmmm MMmmmm
