“Bend” by Dear Reader Capo 3rd Fret To get the timing, listen to the song CHORDS (sounds good but no guarantee for accuracy; any comments appreciated) Relative to 3rd fret Em = Gm(without capo) Start with hammer on an Em chord Em (022000) G (32003x) Dsus2 (000230) Asus2 (002200) Cmaj7 (x32000) Em G Dsus2 Em if you do not bend you will eventually break Asus2 Cmaj7 Dsus2 Em unless you make the wind stop blowing your way Em G Dsus2 Em we were like two kids blowing on each other with two straws Asus2 Cmaj7 Dsus2 Em only i was willing to stop and listen to yours you say you do not want me because i want too much and i almost let you patronise me one last time but i don't want too much i just want more than you've got so the lack is not with either, we are merely a different size don't forget regret it is a waste of an emotion and acceptance is the key to peace, do not try to defy her no i'm not sad we met and slept together in the same bed i bent, i curved, i lent, i learnt, i'm stronger you did not do me wrong, in fact you did me right to let me go although i felt so broken for you did not see the heart of me - perhaps you were too lazy and though i tried i could not gain the heart of you either so now its done and i am glad that i will find another man though you will always be the first i tasted and i will harness all this pain and let it bear me far away i would not let this happening be wasted SOLO relative to 3rd fret e-------------------------------------------------------------| B-------------------------------------------------------------| G-------------------------------------------------------------| D----------------0---0h2--------------------------------------| A----2-2-0-0h2-2---2-----2----------2-------------------------| E--0------------------------/5-5-3-----/5-3-5-5-3-0-----------| e-------------------------------------------------------------| B-------------------------------------------------------------| G------------------------------------------4------------------| D----------------0---0h2----/5-4-2-------5--------------------| A----2-2-0-0h2-2---2-----2---------4-5-7----------------------| E--0----------------------------------------------------------| e-------------------------------------------------------------| B-------------------------------------------------------------| G---4-7-7-4-7-7---5-5h7-4-------------------------------------| D---------------7---------/7-7-5-4----------------------------| A-------------------------------------------------------------| E----------------------------------/5-5-3-0-------------------| if you do not bend you will eventually break unless you make the wind stop blowing away and we were like two kids blowing on each other with two straws only i was willing to stop and listen to yours
