Bottled In Cork Acoustic


Referenced from Ted Leo live during the Best Show on WFMU Marathon, March 2, 2010. Read the notes at the bottom for random tips. C F Em Dm There was a resolution pending on the United Nations floor C F Em Dm In reference to the question, "What's a peace keeping force for?" Am C Who believed it would be solved in a day? Am C No one who walked out of that building on the eighth of May Am C F In their tired-suited, worn-eyed way. F C I got a message from my sister, she just had a kid F C I had to get to Copenhagen to see how she did F C My haircut startled a Canadian, he called me a "skid" Am C Thought the charge for roaming international's well hid Am C Someone is listening on my phone when I show up on the grid Am Em F Me--I'm just a loner in a world full of kids - egos, and ids. F C A year before and we were getting in, getting bottled in Cork F C On television, Congress crying about abusing the pork F C I told the bartender we were all from New York Am C Sometimes the path of least resistance will gain you the most Am C Well, more than trying to map the distance up and down the East Coast Am Em When you're in Munich making music, raise your glass and say, "Probst!" F Make it easy on your host (Solo - Alternate between F and C four times, hammer-on and pull-off pinky on third fret B string and index first fret high E string, listen to the song for the rhythm.) Am Bb Over mountains and far away Dm C Em C Your tribuneral mockeries of justice still dog my steps Bb Am Until I see that next smiling face Dm C Em C A little good will goes a mighty long way Dm C G A little good will goes a mighty long way F C I finally made it up to Sweden to see Little Dove F C Some folk remembered our last meeting and bore me no grudge F C And from the bartender, complimentary mugs Am C Oh, if only I could stay a while, what am I afraid of?

The last G during the bridge is similar. All of the chords during the bridge except the last G should be barred from the A string, e.g. Am - x0221x, Bb - x13331x, C - x35553, Dm - x57765, Em - x79987 Last chord - xx3210
