LORD ONLY KNOWS  
words and music by Beck Hansen  (tabbed by eric schaaf)

intro: after drums B for 4 measures

B                G#                  E               B
You only got one finger left and its pointing at the door
B                     G#               E                  B            
And you're taking for granted what the Lord's made on the floor
B                     G#             E                   B 
So I'm picking up the pieces and I'm putting them up for sale
B                              G#              E            B
Throw your meal ticket out the window put your skeletons in jail

F#                                B                              
Cuz' Lord only knows its getting late
F#                                   B 
Your senses are gone so don't you hesitate
E                  G#            B              G#
To give yourself a call let your bottom dollars fall
G                    F#             B
Throwing you two bit cares down the drain

drum interlude, solo guitar, 2 bars of B

B                G#         E                 B
Invite me to the seven seas like some seasick man
B               G#                  E                  B
You will do whatever you please and I'll do whatever I can
B        G#                 E                B  
Titanic, fare thee well, my eyes are turning pink
B                   G#           E             B   
Don't call when the new age gets old enough to drink

F#                                B
Cuz' Lord only knows its getting late
F#                               B
Your senses are gone so don't hesitate
E              G#           B             G#
Move on up the hill there's nothing dead left to kill
G                     F#              B
Throwing your two bit cares down the drain


B/D-A/F#/E repeat these 4 bars

B      D A      F#      E       B      D A 
Odelay, odelay, odelay, odelay, odelay, odelay
     F#            E    B/D-A/F#/E
Just passing through   
B      D A      F#      E
Odelay, odelay, odelay, odelay

on the A and D strings noodle around between the A, B, D, and E notes

Do the hotdog dance
Going back to Houston
To get me some pants
