Sugar Guitar

Ab                      Db
One more box to be checked off of your list
Ab                      Eb
As troubling as it is
Ab                      Db
Even if you feel you’ve reached your limit
Ab              Eb             Ab
You won’t be broken by this

Ab                      Db
I’m not talking ‘bout the distant future
Ab                      Eb
I'm well aware of it
Ab                      Db
Well then, your future is in your own two hands
Ab              Eb             Ab
I won’t be holding you back

[Pre-chorus]
Cm7             Fm
Destroy it all, if that’s your desire
Bb7
Just let your voice ring out
Dbm                     Eb
To set my heart on fire

[Chorus]
Ab              Fm             Db     Eb
Oh, yes, I want more, Though I’m getting ahead
Ab              Fm             Ab     Bb
Of myself when I wish for ‘happy ends’
Ab              Fm             Db     Eb
What in the hell am I hoping for?
Ab              Fm             Ab     Bb
When it’s your wish I’ll grant, the one that I adore

[Verse]
Ab                      Db
Not everything ends with a good, clean break
Ab                      Eb
With friendly farewell handshakes
Ab                      Db
Even if it seemed agreed to take the easy way,
Ab              Eb             Ab
Just let it be, okay?

Ab                      Db
Doesn’t matter if it gets all flipped around
Ab                      Eb
I’m holding onto hope
Ab                      Db
More than a story of compassionate beings
Ab              Eb             Ab
This right here’s a blessing

[Pre-chorus]
Cm7             Fm
No point in letting it get me down
Bb7
I hope my feelings reach you;
Dbm             Eb
Set your heart on fire

[Chorus]
Ab              Fm             Db     Eb
Oh, closer once more, the distance between us
Ab              Fm             Ab     Bb
Only serves to make me feel far away
Ab              Fm             Db     Eb
The sweet melodies from my Sugar Guitar
Ab              Fm             Ab     Bb
Getting lost in the wind, fading out as I play …

[Chorus]
Ab                      Fm
When I’m with you, it hurts to feel
Db                      Eb
Pointed solely at me, antipathy …

[Key Change]
A               F#m            D      E
Yes, I want more, though I’m getting ahead
A               B              D      E
Of myself when I wish for ‘Happy ends’
A               F#m            D      E
What in the hell am I hoping for?
A               F#m            D
Getting lost in the wind, my voice just fades away …
A       F#m            D
Over again …

E
Oh,
A       F#m
Ooh
D       E
Ah, Ah
A       F#m    D      E
Oh!
