From her live performance on 6/14/04 Standard Tuning, Capo @ 2, 4/4 Time, Quarter Note = ~66-76 (metronomeonline.com) Notes: -Just as with any new Jewel song, her lyrics and chords may tend to vary. This tab is from the above performance. -You can find alternate lyrics at www.jewelwiki.com -I'm pretty sure that she uses a pick on this whole song, but the intro is tabbed because well, that's how she emphasizes notes in the intro. -When picking, she tends to also palm- mute while upwards strumming on the pre-chorus -I had to give some chords alternate names to eliminate confusion...she uses several F chords as well as C chords in this song Chords: (Relative to capo) FMaj7 = X03210 C = 032010 C/B = X20010 F* = 133200 (like an F barre chord w/o barring the top two notes) Am = X02210 G = 320033 D/F# = 200230 CMaj7 = X32000 Em = 022000 Intro: FMaj7 E -----------0--------0--------0----------- B --------------1--------1--------1-------- G -----2--------------------------------2-- D --3-----3--------3--------3--------3----- A ----------------------------------------- E ----------------------------------------- C E -----------0--------0--------0----------- B --------------1--------1--------1-------- G -----0--------------------------------0-- D --------2-------------------------------- A --3---------------3-------3--------3----- E ----------------------------------------- C/B C E -----------0--------0--------0------------1-- B --------------1--------1--------1---------1-- G -----0--------------------------------0---0-- D --0---------------------------------------2-- A --------2---------2-------2--------2------3-- E ------------------------------------------x-- Verse 1: C F* Am In my younger years, cried all my tears G In darkness all alone C F* Uncertainty in the air, electricity everywhere Am G FMaj7 C Tempers waiting to flare, waiting to explode (tap, tap, tap) Pre-Chorus: Am D/F# It was like a dream but I could not wake F* I was drowning beneath the wake G Of the hope I would find my Chorus: C G Place in the sun Em F* My place in the sun C G My place in the sun FMaj7 C C/B C (tap, tap) Just for me Verse 2: C F* Moved into my car, it may not go very far Am G But I found the spotlight, it did not warm my soul C And you people let me in your living rooms F* And you listened to my simple tunes Am G FMaj7 C Just like me, people needed words for company Pre-Chorus: Am D/F# But I thought I'd find a kind of world F* G Beyond my own with people who were just as alone G And trying to find their Chorus: C G Place in the sun F* Their place in the sun C G Their place in the sun FMaj7 Just for beauty Bridge: F* Now I'm on the other side CMaj7 Of this crazy kind of life F* CMaj7 I've found fame, fortune, heartache, poverty F* And I can see that everything really feels the same CMaj7 Until you're happy with your own name D/F# I don't gotta fight, I'm gonna be all right Tag: FMaj7 (tap, tap, tap) CMaj7 (tap, tap, tap) I've found my place in the sun FMaj7 (tap, tap, tap) CMaj7 (tap, tap, tap) My place in the sun FMaj7 G My place in the sun Em F* My place in the sun C G Em F* Myyyyyyyyyyyyy place in the sun CMaj7 Oh......
