Indigo Girls - True Romantic

      True Romantic / Indigo Girls

This is a really great song off the Indigo Girls’
2009 album, Poseidon and the Bitter Bug, but it’s
one that’s often neglected – this is obvious, as I
couldn’t find a single table anywhere online. So I figured
out the chords as best I could. The chords themselves
aren’t that hard, but Amy varies some of the orders
of the chords in a seemingly random way that makes
it a little difficult to master. Hope you enjoy the
chords – email me at kids.think.pink@gmail.com if
you have any corrections/comments/suggestions. :)

Capo 2
 

         C
Baby, I got the best intentions,
F                     E
But I just can't do it
         Am
Baby, I got the truest aim
                  G
But I just can't win


         C
Baby, I got a good vibration,
E
But I just can't play it
       Am
Baby, I spent my only fortune,
                  Fm
On the wages of sin
 

         C                       E
So you, you gotta be extra forgiving
          Am            F
And you gotta be super strong
          C             E
You gotta be a true romantic
               Am
I want you to look the other way
                        F
When everything goes wrong

 
             C
Baby if you took all the good stuff
                  F
And put it all together
                      E
And you took all the bad stuff
                        F
And you threw it all away
                      C
Would I still be the girl
                  E
That suited your fancy?
                      Am
Would I still be the boy
                      F
That rocked your world?

 
C E Am Fm
(Amy yells for a bit)


              C
If you get lonely
                          E
For the trouble and the chaos
              Am
If you get bored
                   F
Since you walked away
                 C
Remember what I told you
                      E
When the night was darkest
                              Am
You can leave me all you need to
                  F
Baby, I'm here to stay

 
              C                     E
And baby, I'm gonna be extra forgiving
       Am                    F
And I'm gonna be super strong
              C                     E
'Cause baby, I'm, I'm a true romantic
                      Am
I'm gonna look the other way
                      F
When everything goes wrong

 
C E Am Fm
(Amy yells for a while again)
