Capo 5th Standard Tuning.
Intro (let the note on the 3rd fret ring out a little)
E|-------3--------------3-------------3------2h3----|
B|------3--3----------3---3----------3-3----3---3---|
G|----0-----0-------0------0-------0----0--2-----2--|
D|----------------2-----------------------0---------|

E|---2h3-----2h3-------------|

Verse (for all bar the last one which is strummed as you'll be able to tell from the recording)
E|------3-----------3--------3----------3----|
B|-----3-3---------3-3------3-3--------3-3---|
G|----0---0-------0--------0---0------0------|
D|--------------2--------------------2-------|
A|-2-----------3--------2-----------3--------|
E|3--------------------3---------------------|
Pretty much that pattern until you get to the last line.
Which goes:
E|-----3-------2h3----------------------------|
B|----3-3-----3--3----------------------------|
G|---0---0---0----0---------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------|
A|-2------------------------------------------|
E|3-------------------------------------------|
Then back again to the same pattern
The chords that are strummed in the final verse i.e. "cause you make me want to stand in
fertility..." Are the ones that you've been fingerpicking before so thats
E|-3---3--2-----------------------------------|
B|-3---3--3-----------------------------------|
G|-0---0--2-----------------------------------|
D|-0---2--------------------------------------|
A|-2---3--------------------------------------|
E|-3---X--------------------------------------|
i.e. G C and D.
Great song to play and sing.
Here are the lyrics. If you want you could just strum the chords above to the song and
it such as galensmith on youtube did.
Have fun guys... and if you've any suggestions perhaps theres a note I've not got hidden
somewhere just comment.
Zero Integrity
i never said that i had any answers
i never claimed to be the better man
i've got no integrity to cling to
i don't have myself a backup plan
for twenty some odd years i've made a mess of things
i've lost most of the friendships that i've made
and i've burned a lot of bridges and it hurts me still to say
but i never intended it that way
yeah i never meant to make you want to punch me out
that night in Delaware outside the club
cause i know you had it shitty growing up and i did too
but if you forgive me i will forgive you
cause you make me want to stand in my fertility
a sellout doesn't value his own song
and i know i messed around a lot before i fell for you
but no one's ever loved you like i do
no one's ever loved you like i do
