  On the Brink

  Dinosaur Jr

  ------------

  

  The point of me going through the trouble for this is that hopefully it

  will help someone else out with the song.  I'm still learning, so

  hopefully someone can help me out too!  Post your corrections and

  suggestions!  I've worked out the basics of all the songs on

  Without a Sound, so if anyone is interested I can pound out another

  song.  And sorry about the bad job on the lyrical transcription!  He

  just tends to mumble sometimes.

  

  Capo on the third fret.  All the chords and tab are relative to the capo.

  

  G D C D x 2

  

  This is how I play the little G D C D progression, but I really don't

  think that it's the same as J plays.

  G      D                   C       D              G     D     C  D

       I know I've been left on your mind you could use a break

  G       D            C       D          G         D    C D

       If ever I could let you go is that all you'd take

  

  C                   C             D               fill 1

       It's not often you soften up enough to smile

  C                 C              D   fill 2

       I'm damaged, I'm sandwiched ??

  

  G             D      C    D          G            D     C  D

       Tomorrow is the last event that could mean a thing

  G           D        C             D              G          D     C  D

       Forget what you thought you'd meant thinking what you'd bring

  C                 C                    D    fill 1

       I'm damaged, I'm sandwiched in between

                         C             D             fill 2

       No wonder I hardly have the strength to fight

  

  G       D              C      D              G      D    C  D

       If ever there had been a time would you let me know

  G       D               C     D              G        D   C  D

       Is there enough of you around could you let some go

  

  Some of these chords, I don't know the exact name of, so I used a ?.

  

  Em?          C        A?    D

       All the love you deny it

  Em?       C         A?             D

       Your above all your pride too

  Em?          C           A?       D

       Gave it all I could think of

  Em?            C              A?           D

       Would you care what your on the brink

  

  Em?  022002

  C?   x32013

  A?   x02200

  D    xx0232

  G    320003
