Jenny Lewis - Silver Lining Chords & Tabs

Jenny Lewis - "Silver Lining"

(transcribed by Josh Alder)

This is how Jenny has played this song acoustically during her solo shows.
I transcribed this after watching her play it live at the Roseland Theater
in Portland, Oregon, on May 30, 2009. Note the capo on the first fret.

        G          Em
And I'm not going back

     G              Em
Into rags or in the hole

        G           Em
And our bruises are coming

    C             G
But we will never fold

      G               Em
And I was your silver lining

G            Em
As the story goes
  
  G               Em
I was your silver lining

    C       G
But now I'm gold

Am     Em
Hooray hooray

         C          G
I'm your silver lining

Am     Em
Hooray hooray

    C        G
But now I'm gold

      G               Em
And I was your silver lining

G             Em
High up on my toes

         G                         Em
You were running through fields of hitch-hikers

C            G
As the story goes


Am     Em
Hooray hooray

        G              Em
And the grass it was a ticking

        G              Em
And the sun was on the rise

  G             Em
I never felt so wicked

          C                  G
As when I willed our love to die

      G               Em
And I was your silver lining

G            Em
As the story goes
  
  G               Em
I was your silver lining

    C       G
But now I'm gold

Am     Em
Hooray hooray

         C          G
I'm your silver lining

Am     Em
Hooray hooray

    C        G
But now I'm gold

Am     Em
Hooray hooray

         C          G
I'm your silver lining

Am     Em
Hooray hooray

    C        G
But now I'm gold

    C        G
But now I'm gold

    C        G
But now I'm gold
