Ani DiFranco - Overlap
(new studio Version from 'Canon')
The chords are rather simple, it's the way she plays them that creates that typical mood.

And each one of us

Badd9

Wants a piece of the action

G6 Aadd9

You can hear it in what we say

Badd9

You can see it in what we do

In the background, I guess

F#m7 Gmaj7

And watch your own reflection superimposed

G6 Aadd9 Badd9

I build each one of my days

Out of hope

G6 Aadd9 Badd9

And I give that hope your name

Either you don't have the balls
