Sorrow - Beck 
This song doesn't really have much guitar in it but I figured I'd try to figure out some progression to play 
that is close. The Bb during the verse is the best I can do... I kind of just jam on the Bb bass and try to 
follow the singing melody. If anyone can come up with anything better that would be awesome! I think the rest 
of the chords go well.
    BbFace me now, my lover 
Hang a light switch higher, flip the light 
Won't you burn some joy I threw 
Upon the street and drove right through 
The Abcrazies all in Ebline to battle Bbsorrow
AbNow the way to Eblive, can't wake up Bbsorrow 
C#Who is that Cmcrying on the Bbroad now? 
C#Who is that Cmghost singing our Bbsongs? 
  BbWeakest hand fell from my grip 
The shapeless ways your fist can move 
I feel like I could fill this room 
With broken records and dead balloons 
And it's a Abhappy birthday, Ebsay so long to Bbsorrow
AbBeggar shoes can't Ebfind the way to Bbsorrow
C#Who is that Cmburning on the Bbsun?
C#All the Cmtrash that filled our Bbrooms 
   BbFade as light from angled roofs 
The lunatics are aching too 
The cold dust smell, the dusk is dim 
Midnight lungs of promises 
The fire Abhydrant Ebblasts the shell of Bbsorrow 
AbRescue missions Ebdig up the bones of Bbsorrow 
C#Who is that Cmcrying in the Bbshadow? 
C#Who is that Cmghost singing our Bbsongs?

Sorrow - Beck

This song doesn't really have much guitar in it but I figured I'd try to figure out some progression to play

that is close. The Bb during the verse is the best I can do... I kind of just jam on the Bb bass and try to

follow the singing melody. If anyone can come up with anything better that would be awesome! I think the rest

of the chords go well.

Face me now, my lover

Hang a light switch higher, flip the light

Won't you burn some joy I threw

Upon the street and drove right through

Ab Eb Bb

The crazies all in line to battle sorrow

Ab Eb Bb

Now the way to live, can't wake up sorrow

C# Cm Bb

Who is that crying on the road now?

C# Cm Bb

Who is that ghost singing our songs?

Weakest hand fell from my grip

The shapeless ways your fist can move

I feel like I could fill this room

With broken records and dead balloons

Ab Eb Bb

And it's a happy birthday, say so long to sorrow

Ab Eb Bb

Beggar shoes can't find the way to sorrow

C# Cm Bb

Who is that burning on the sun?

C# Cm Bb

All the trash that filled our rooms

Fade as light from angled roofs

The lunatics are aching too

The cold dust smell, the dusk is dim

Midnight lungs of promises

Ab Eb Bb

The fire hydrant blasts the shell of sorrow

Ab Eb Bb

Rescue missions dig up the bones of sorrow

C# Cm Bb

Who is that crying in the shadow?

C# Cm Bb

Who is that ghost singing our songs?
