Eleanor Friedberger - My Mistakes

      
 
 My absolute favorite song on the album, it's quite simply played yet incredibly
 fun to play along. It's just a C and F the entire time (sounds best to play bar chords)

  C                                                             
 You know i do my best thinking when I'm flying down the bridge,
  F                                        
 Humming to myself and kicking up my kicks.
  C                                                                                            
 Jiggling all around half-afraid for my life, I hope I don't crash like that night last summer,
  F                                                                                   
 Back when the bridge was just a wooden path, Bouncing around like he said it was 1956

 Chorus:
                      F                                                      
 I thought I'd learn from my mistakes, I thought he'd learn from my mistakes,
                           C                                                        
 I thought you'd give me the right advice, I thought he let me in for one last time.

  F                                               
 The planks rattle around like an old-timey movie,
 In tube-top and shorts that Vice called "pull-me-down"
  C                                                     
 she's got kind of a native vibe before that was so cool
                                                               F 
 She's got kind of a native vibe before I even knew who was who
  C                                 
 And he's ignoring me like it's 2001
  F                                                                        
 Why keep time traveling if it doesn't get better on the second time around
  C                                                                        
 Why keep time traveling if it doesn't get better on the second time around
 
 Chorus:
                      F                                                      
 I thought I'd learn from my mistakes, I thought he'd learn from my mistakes,
                           C                                                        
 I thought you'd give me the right advice, I thought he let me in for one last time.

 I wore the same outfit on the day the Hasid
 Followed me in his car along Park, not Avenue,
  C                                                  
 But the one in Brooklyn, on an early Sunday morning,
 I'm carrying an umbrella and talking on the phone
  F                         
 My mom said run, and I ran,
 I crashed down Baker, cut my head and my knees
  C                                                      
 The ambulance was called by a guy his friend called Guru
  F                                                   
 They were visiting from California, and I swear they,
 I swear they, I swear they,
                           C 
 I swear they saved my life
 
 Chorus: (x2)
                      F                                                      
 I thought i'd learn from my mistakes, I thought he'd learn from my mistakes,
                           C                                                        
 I thought you'd give me the right advice, I thought he let me in for one last time.
