JASON MRAZ - DEAD END TABS

Jason Mraz - Dead End From track 1 of Selections for Friends "Welcome To Schubas The EMinor EP in FSharp" Mraz uses four basic jazz chords for most of the song: F#m7 2x42x0 E/F# x9799x D7 x5x45x during verse or x5453x during breakdown C#7 x4342x I didn't take time to mark out where they all land during the verse, but they're played that order throughout. There is also: F#maj 244322 Emaj x7999x Intro/verse chords: e------0---------0----------------------------------------------| b------x----9----x-----9-------5---5-----2----------------------| G------2----9----2-----9-------4---4-----4----------------------| D------4----7----4-----7-------x---x-----3----------------------| A------x--9-9----x---9-9---5-5---5---4-4-4--0h2h4p2p0-----------| E--2-2-2-------2-2------------------------------------4---------| Verse 1: say easily with me well i show affection but it's creeping up creeping up on me in another direction i love a ride and i know someday I'm gonna buy it so i try to ask no questions but the weary one is often me well do you think it's obsession Breakdown:

^D7the smoke will find you a ^C7choker that matches your ^D7coat not fit to be ^C7tied the ^D7mirror it makes it all ^C7clearer as you stand ^D7alone and can see your ^C7behind (scat)

Verse 2: well they tried it and they like to say nobody would believe this yes you tried it and you liked it but nobody could ever conceive of it the way you stayed up locked away up keeping the flame for yourself the way you played it out pushing the blame of reaping the fame for yourself Bridge:
