Tally Hall - Taken for a Ride

      
 
 Verse 1:
 
 Cmaj7                          Em                      
 Marvin walked into a helpless land and wondered lightly
        Ab                Eb    Bb 
 "Am I happy?....Is this happy?"
 Cmaj7                          Em                      
 Following the footsteps set by man he said to reprimand
      Ab              Eb   Bb 
 the mystic, Who's sadistic
 Cmaj7                     Em              
 Took a step into the elevaaaator who said,
                      Ab               Eb    Bb 
 "Guess I'll see you later, don't you worry."
 Cmaj7                                   Em            
 Fifteen flights that lasted nights and days that spent
                      Ab                   Eb        Bb 
 without a cent for creatures, with their beat shirts
 
 Prechorus:
 
 Bb* C* Bb* Ab* Bb*
 Bb* Ab*
 Listening to painted whispered light on top forgotten hill
 
 Verse 2:
 
 Cmaj7                              Em                           
 Next the stranded senate from the white brick house with flowers
             Ab                   Eb Bb 
 asked some questions for their story
     Cmaj7                            Em                   
 All feeling now he took his bow and left the stage of time
         Ab             Eb      Bb 
 with no answers to no questions
 Cmaj7                          Em                    
 Lonely paperbacks that wanted just a taste of feeling
        Ab                Eb   Bb 
 to implode them, before living
 Cmaj7                             Em  
 Tiptoed to that wooden sign that said,
                                   Ab             Eb    Bb 
 "now take your place in line for happy, this is lovely"
 
 Prechorus:
 
 Bb* C* Bb* Ab* Bb*
 Bb* Ab*
 Listening to painted whispered light on top forgotten hill
 
 Chorus:
 
 F    C         Dm      C#             Ab 
 One secondary smile to go that extra mile
 C# Ab Ab/G** F
 to make me feel today to make it go away
       C           Dm   C#          Ab 
 the chemistry is gone taken for a ride

 Db Ab Db Cmaj7--Em--Ab--Eb--Bb
 

 far away from you No longer left inside
 
 Verse 3:
 
     Cmaj7                               Em    
 the actor with his world renowned was thinking
                             Ab             Eb   Bb 
 'bout his last real day of silence, was it over?
    Cmaj7                             Em               
 or  is it just we all think that our answer isn't real
             Ab           Eb   Bb 
 its just a picture of a letter
 Cmaj7                             Em                             
 bumble mumble make the rounds no matter what you'll seem profound
       Ab              Eb  Bb 
 it's useless just to worry
 Cmaj7                              Em                
 something normal happens somewhere far away in clouds
                 Ab               Eb  Bb 
 so please stop thinking this is happy
 
 Prechorus:
 
 Bb* C* Bb* Ab* Bb*
 Bb* Eb* E*
 Listening to painted whispered light on top forgotten hill

 to make me feel today to make it go away
       C           Dm   C#          Ab

 End Verse:
 
                             Ab--Bb--Db 
 there're no secrets in the door
                       Ab--Bb--Db 
 just a moment doing chores
                                     Ab      
 and there's something, and there's something
              Bb                    C#                      
 and there's something and there's something next to nothing
              Ab                    Bb      
 and there's something and there's something
             C# 
 But you're gone
 
 *Really nopt sure at all with that prechorus, I can't figure it out for the life of me.
 easier on piano.
 
 **Ab/G can also be played just as a Db if you're uneasy about that chord. It sounds fine too.
