Dawes - If I Wanted Someone
from the album "Nothing is Wrong"
tabbed by RandMcNally at Ultimate-Guitar.com
Standard Tuning (EADGBE)
[Verse]
Em Am C Em
like the memory from your mother's house from before you got too old
Em Am C Em
like the feeling from a photograph before it's meanings all got told
D Am G Am
the words I say can be silver, but what's left unsaid can be gold
Am (slide or hammer on G string from 2 to 4)
so get to know me once I go away
Em
Em Am C Em
maybe 'cause I come from such an empty-hearted town
Em Am C Em
or maybe 'cause some love of mine had really let me down
D Am G Am
but the only time I am lonely is when others are around
Am (slide or hammer on G string from 2 to 4)
I just never end up knowing what to say
Em
[Chorus]
C G
if I wanted someone to clean me up, I'd find myself a maid
D Am
if I wanted someone to spend my money, I wouldn't need to get paid
C G
if I wanted someone to understand me, I'd have so much more to say
D Bm C
I want you to make the days move easy
[Verse]
Em Am C Em
I took everything I thought from what it means to be a man
Em Am C Em
we need words to be put to what we do not understand
D Am G Am
while you lean into the echoes and you do not raise a hand
Am (slide or hammer on G string from 2 to 4)
oh woman, help me see it like it is
[Chorus]
C G
if I wanted someone to clean me up, I'd find myself a maid
D Am
if I wanted someone to spend my money, I wouldn't need to get paid
