"TAINTED OBLIGATIONS" (As performed by the Community Trolls)
Chords by: Chris Bray (cbray@comp.uark.edu)
(This song has Michael Stipe singing lead vocals, and can be found on a number
of R.E.M. bootlegs, including "Those Were the Days", "Life's Rich Pageant
and More". I'm also pretty sure that Matthew Sweet is singing backing vocals.)
(D) (G) (D)
I saw the shoals at night, with the moon above.
(A7sus4)
I felt an obligation, and heard your voice again.
(D) (G)
If you were here once, you were here a hundred times.
(D) (A7sus4)
If I reached out tonight, I found I couldn't fight it.
B A B
If you were here once, you were here a hundred times.
A
Ohhhhhh
D G D
Best as a wishing star, I saw you better far away,
A7sus4
and I felt obligation, and heard your voice again.
D G D
Hear the rush of water, passing over the shoals.
A7sus4
Hear my heartbeat rather, if I reached out tonight.
B A B
If I reach out tonight and find I can't fight it,
A
and look to the stars, and wander towards a
D G D
heartfelt obligation, a place that you called home
A7sus4
and heard your voice again, but it's too late.
D G
You left long ago, and now you're probably dead and gone,
D A7sus4 B A
and I'm left here with the water and the shoals and a tainted obligation.
B A
Ohhhhhh
D G D A7sus4
D G D A7sus4
B A
Tainted obligations
B A
Tainted obligations
B A
Ohhhhhh
B A
Ohhhhhh
