Written with Lyrics by Neil Fitzpatrick
I think this is the best song, next to Automatic Flowers, that is on
Clumsy. It is easy to play. There are 4 beats per measure. It is
basically right, except maybe for the solo and solo chords.
Tuned down 1 half step-Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb, eb
Bracketed #'s=amount of beats chord is played
Note: Chord names are based on the sound when normally tuned. The
actual sound on the CD is 1 half step lower than the chord names.

I walked around my room not thinking, just sinking in this box, I blame

In this example you would play the G, bend up one whole step to A then
release bend to sound G again. Only the first note is picked.

It's probably a good idea to listen to the CD and play along with the song
to get a feel for it and get all the timing and stuff right :)
