ACOUSTIC LIVE VERSION Passenger The Wrong Direction Capo 5th fret ---Transcribed by Scott Gittins--- TRUE acoustic version as heard on Coffeehouse satellite radio and seen on youtube CARFEULLY transcribed by yours truly https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmdMw_Rfr3I Quick note: Intro and beginning verses are assumed to be picking unless the ^ thumb arrow designates a upflick strum with the thumb designated by TmbSt and any of the xxxx is a chuck / slap on some of the strings. m is mute anywhere in the tab. This is my first real tab by hand and reverse engineering from a video. Takes forever, if you see errors please not and I will fix asap. Thanks!

I do not think it is necessary to do the rest at this time. If you want more please comment or email me. If you master these first two iterations of the chord progression, the third iteration is a simple strum plucking the bass note of each chord as you go through. Verse Lyrics with chord shapes:
When I was a Fkid, the things I did, were hidden Cunder the grid young and Gnaive, i never believed love couldAm be so well-hid with reFgret I'm willing to bet they say the Colder you get gets hGarder to forgive and harder Amto forget it gFets under your shirt like a dCagger at work the Gfirst cut is the deepest but the Amrest still flippin hurt you Fbuild your heart of plastic you're Ccynical and sarcastic and Gend up in a corner on your own
Chorus:
cause I Flove to feel loved but i can't Cstand the rejection i Ghide behind my jokes as a Amform of protection i tFhought i was close but under Cfurther inspection it Gseems i've been running in the Amwrong direction
Intro-Riff so what's the point of getting your hopes up when all you ever get is chocked up when your coked up and remember the reason why you broke up you call her in the morning when you're coming down and falling like an old man in the side of the road cause when your apart you don't a-mingle when you're together you want to be single ever the chase, the taste, the kiss, the bliss that made your heart tingle how much greener the grass is, with your rose tinted glasses but the butterflies flutter by and leave us on our asses Chorus:
cause I Flove to feel loved but i can't Cstand the rejection i Ghide behind my jokes as a Amform of protection i tFhought i was close but under Cfurther inspection it Gseems i've been running in the Amwrong direction
Bridge:
there'sF fish in the sea for me to Cmake a selection I'd jump Gin if it wasn't for my Amear infection cause Fall i want to do is try to Cmake a connection it Gseems i've been running in the Amwrong direction
cause I Flove to feel loved but i can't Cstand the rejection i Ghide behind my jokes as a Amform of protection i tFhought i was close but under Cfurther inspection it Gseems i've been running in the Amwrong direction
cause I Flove to feel loved but i can't Cstand the rejection i Ghide behind my jokes as a Amform of protection i tFhought i was close but under Cfurther inspection it Gseems i've been running in the Amwrong direction
