Oblivious

Tabs revised by Miguel A. Dominguez on 9/9/02

Miguel says:
This is an improvement for the chords originally done by Sandy Manson. The prechorus is a typical inversion of diminished chords. The diminished chords are the same ones every four frets (3rd series inversions).

From the mountain tops down to the sunny street

I  see  you    crying and I want to kill your friends

I hear your footsteps in the street,

-------------------------- Bm -- Bm aug
It won't be long before we meet

---- A6 - E

Just count me in and count me out and

I'll be waiting for the shout

O-blivi-ous



Bridge:

Fmaj7 ---------------------- Cmaj7 --
I hope it haunts me 'til I'm hopeless

Gmaj7 --------------------- Dmaj7
I hope it hits you when you go

Amaj7 ---------------------- Bmaj7 --
And sometimes on the edge of sleeping

F ------------------- E -------------------
It rises up to let me know it's not so deep

---------- A -- 
I'm not so slow
