So I haven't been able to find any good versions of this song online, except
for this one from ani-difranco.net. I've added the lyrics showing where
the chords go, as well as the slight variation where she says "can't get through".
Tuning: Standard
the first number is the fret and the () is the finger.
chord: 1 2 3 4
e-------------------------------------------------|
b------1(1)-------1(1)-------1(1)-------3(4)------|

d-------------------------------------------------|
a------3(3)------------------0--------------------|
e-----------------3(3)------------------3(3)------|
listen to cd for rhythm. needs to be fingerpicked.

1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 4 4...
1
i am walking
2
out in the rain
3
and i am listening to the low moan
4
of the dial tone again
1
and i am getting
2
nowhere with you
3
and i can't let it go
2 1 3
and i can't get through
1 2 3 4
1
and the old woman
2
behind the pink curtains
3
and the closed door
4
on the first floor
1 2
she is listening to the air shaft
3 4
to see how long our swan song will last
1
and both hands
2
now use both hands
3 4
oh no, don't close your eyes
1
i am writing
2
graffiti all over your body
3 4
i am drawing the story of
1 2 3 4
how hard we tried
1 2 3 4
how hard we tried
etc.
