  Before You Were Born

  by Toad the Wet Sprocket

  from the _fear_ album

  

  contributed by Ryan Houlette

  <rhoulett@depauw.edu>

  

  

  It's the same basic chords the whole song.

  Vary it by adding hammer-ons/pull-offs.

  Listen to the album to get the strumming pattern.

  

  

  [verse1]

  D                 Dsus4  G          Gadd2?

  How can it happen   that every time

  D                       Dsus4      G                 Gadd2

  You ask us this question the answer seems like a lie

  D                              Dsus4 G                  Gadd2

  You know what what we're saying  you know what it means

  Bm

  And it's always sincere god knows

         A          G

  But it never gets through to where you need

  

  

  

  [chorus1]

  D

  Before you were born someone kicked in the door

  G

  There's no place for you here, stay back where you belong

  D

  Before you were born someone kicked in the door

  G

  You are not wanted here anymore

  

  

  (repeat these patterns for the other verses and choruses and the 2nd solo)

  

  

  [1st solo backing chords]

  

  Em D Em D Em A D A G
