Willy Mason - Still a Fly
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi, this is my first tab, so I'm not sure if it's completely accurate, but it sounds ok to me.
Any comments or corrections are welcome.

Intro: play 2x C Am G

Verse 1 (play with the same picking pattern as the intro)
C
That's alright, that's okay
Am
I can wait, you're still a fly
G
Eating through, trying to live within the space you're in
C
But still, you're just a kid
Am G
You shouldn't read Dostoefsky at your age
C
That and nicotine will make you pale and lean
Am
And twist your face like Mr. Grays
G
Though it just manifests in paintings that you make
C
Or else your eyes will stay the same
Am G
Are you that hungry for a change?

Verse 2 (same chords as verse 1)
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/w/willy_mason/still_a_fly_tab.html ]
That's alright, that's okay
We can just run away
And justify our escape with the games that we play
And when we get there
I will say "Hey baby"
Maybe you would laugh a lot
Because that's not something I usually say
But that's no reason
Why I got on the tip of my tongue
And that's still okay
D D
You're waking up
C C
You're flying out
D D
The door has sprung loose
C C
Don't forget me

And then it came and rained on down, from the sky
and into my head
