ROCHES - "one season" Tablature

Official ROCHES Tablature & Sheet Music »

i love this song. wish i wrote it.
hard to sing, though,
unless you've got pitch-perfect 3 part harmony...
i LOVE the dissonant verses , which i used to drive my ex-landlady
crazy listening to at top volume 15 years ago (but it served her
right,as she'd make me nuts listening to opera at 1000 decibles...)

i think this is right, but maggie tunes her guitar down to,
i think, Eb (if you want to play along w/the recording).

corrections, suggestions, etc. are welcome.

One Season

-The Roches (Maggie)

(guitar tuned down to Eb !!)

A D
One season I was born
E D
fell down like an acorn
A F#m
I am the only tree
D E A
and everybody leaves


D A D
I've got to get away from you

A D A D

A D
Bud growing up at me
E D
resentful face I see
A F#m
a harsh light seems to damn you
D E A
is it because I am you?


D A D
I've got to get away from you
A D A D
i need to find a love that's true

A D
Loose leaf lay on the bed
E D
hair falling around her head
A F#m
I watched her from the shore
D E A
I can't do any more

D A D
I've got to get away from you
A D A D
I'll come and visit you in the zoo

(dissonant verse!)
A D
We go on arguing
E D
no one can say a thing
A F#m
set down your key and trumpet
D E A
go have a dream and hump it

D A D
I've got to get away from you
A D A D
you don't know what you put me through


G C D C G..Em...Am... C G C...G E
aahhhh....


A D
Prized fighter with bruised pride
E D
a fuse blew when you tried
A F#m
to fix the worn out wire
D E A
and set the house on fire

D A D
I've got to get away from you
A D A D
if only for a day or two

A D A D
you don't know what you put me through

A D A D
I'll come and visit you in the zoo

A D A D
I need to find a love that's true

A D A D
I want to get away with you
