Eat for Two by 10,000 Maniacs
This is definitely one of the hardest songs I've ever learned to play.
Best of luck
with it!
It's difficult because of the chords :
Fm XX3111
Eb/G XX3121
Eb X43121
Cm X3554X
Ab 466544
Db/F X43121
Bbm7 X1312X
C7 X32310
Definitely not a three chord song!
there's also this Fm7omit3rd chord : XX354X

(the next verses follow this same pattern of chords so I'm only going to
type out the
lyrics)
Well, the egg man fell down off his shelf
All the good king's men with all their help
Struggled 'til the end
For a shell they couldn't mend
You know where this will lead
to hush and rock in the nursery
for the kicking one inside of me.
I eat for two, walk for two, breathe for two now
I eat for two, walk for two, breathe for two now
When the boy was a boy, and a girl was a girl
and they found each other in a wicked world
strong in some respects but she couldn't stand for the way he begged
And gave in. Pride is for men.
Young girls should run and hide instead.
Risk the game by taking dares with "yes"
Eat for two, walk for two, breathe for two now.
eat for two, walk for two, breathe for two now

Fm7omit3
Walk for two? I'm stumbling. Breathe for two? I...I can't breathe.
Fm7
I can't breathe
Fm no chord
Five months, how it grows, five months now, I begin to show.
