No Time Flat chords

No Time Flat

• A

Rough and simple tab.  Comment if you have a slicker way to play it.

Notes on the verse chords:
You can just play A, Dmaj7, F#m7, and Bm.

To get the slide (this isn't right, but it sort of works) sound, play:

e|--0---0--------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--2---2s7--0---7-----------------------------------------------------------|
G|--2---1s6--6---6----2---2s7---7--------------------------------------------|
D|--2---2s7--7---7----4---2s7---7--------------------------------------------|
A|--0---0-------------4---4s9---9--------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

This is the chorus riff:

e|-----------------------0---------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------2----0-2----------------------------------------------|
G|--2-2--2-2--4-2-4------------2---------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

e|---------------------------------------------------------------0-----------|
B|----------------------------------------------------------0-2----0-2-------|
G|--2-2-2-2s4-4--2-2------------------2--------2----2-2-------------2--------|
D|---------------------4-2--------2h4-----2h4--------------------------------|

A                  Amaj7
Your skin's in my mouth
Dmaj7   D6   Dmaj7  D6
But I'm thinking about
F#m          F#m7
thousands of things
Bm9   Bm7   Bm9   Bm7
That don't got your name
A                  Amaj7
So I'm distant and weird
Dmaj7   D6   Dmaj7  D6
We stop and you're all ears
F#m          F#m7
But how can I say
Bm9   Bm7   Bm9   Bm7             D
I've just been thinking that it's harder every year
                        A
To find excuses that'll keep me in the clear
                      D
The arbitrary lines I impress in the sand
                            A
The proof that piles in my trashcan
                                      D
While the skin on my hands is looking older every day
                                  A
The lies I've told have turned to leather on my face
                                 D
The love I've lost has turned to needles in my heart
                             A
But I'm to blame for all the bad parts
They're the choices I've made (hey hey)

A                  Amaj7
Dmaj7   D6   Dmaj7  D6
F#m          F#m7
Bm9   Bm7   Bm9   Bm7
That's why I turn my face away

A                  Amaj7
Dmaj7   D6   Dmaj7  D6
F#m          F#m7
Bm9   Bm7   Bm9   Bm7

A           Amaj7
I watch the debates
Dmaj7   D6   Dmaj7  D6
Till I can't see straight
F#m          F#m7
Take abortion away
Bm9   Bm7   Bm9   Bm7
And both sides seem just the same

A               Amaj7
So I'm not sure why I vote
Dmaj7   D6   Dmaj7  D6
'Cause I just don't know
F#m                F#m7
What difference it makes
Bm9   Bm7   Bm9   Bm7     D
It seems to me we get the same shit from them both
                                A
Reforms don't work I think it's time we tried revolt
                            D
But I don't got the guts to jump up and go first
                            A
So I'll just shout until my throat hurts
                                   D
And I curse and I curse at what we fucked up in Iraq
                                 A
You say "Support the troops!"  I do, I want them all brought back
                       D
And every building you bombed raised from the ground
                              A
And blow your contractors the fuck out
                         D
And if you really go and reinstate the draft
                                  A
Just straight away just split the country straight in half
                   D
Try arresting everyone who sends their draft cards back
                          A
I'll be returning mine in no time flat

D
No time flat
F#m
No time flat
Bm
No time flat
C#m   D    E
(yeah yeah yeah)
(ba da ba)

A                  Amaj7
In a sense we're the same
Dmaj7   D6   Dmaj7  D6
Struggling to save face
F#m          F#m7
A question of scope
Bm9     Bm7      Bm9     Bm7
How far you're willing to go
A                      Amaj7
To make rights of your wrongs
Dmaj7      D6  Dmaj7   D6
Despite the risk involved
F#m          F#m7
A question of faith...

Bm9 once, then no chords until D

                             D
'Cause if we wait until we've all been burned to ash
                            A
To tell the truth about the shit buried in our past
                           D
We'll split a taxi to that fire pit way down south
                              A
So let's rise up and open our mouths
                                D
'Cause you remind me that it's harder every year
                        A
To find excuses that'll keep me in the clear
                      D
The arbitrary lines I impress in the sand
                           A
The proof that piles in my trashcan
                         D
And if you really go and reinstate the draft
                                    A
You'll straight away just split the country straight in half
                      D
So try arresting everyone who sends their draft cards back
                          A  A    A
I'll be returning mine in no time flat
