Shameika
Fiona Apple
Eb
Verse 1
Am6 Am6 I used to walk down the streets On my way to school Am6 Am6 Am6 Grinding my teeth to a rhythm invisible Am6 Am6 I used my feet to crush dead leaves like they had fallen from trees Am6 Just for me, just to be crash cymbals
Pre-Chorus
Ab In class, I'd pass the time Ab7 Drawing a slash for every time Abaug Ddim The second hand went by a group of five Done twelve times was a minute
Chorus
Eb Bb7 Eb But Shameika said I had potential Bb7 Eb Shameika said I had potential Bb7 Eb Shameika said I had potential Am6 Shameika said I had potential
Verse 2
Am6 Am6 I used to march down the windy, windy sidewalks Am6 Slapping my leg with a riding crop Am6 Am6 Thinking it made me come off so tough Am6 I didn't smile, because a smile always seemed rehearsed Am6 A I wasn't afraid of the bullies, and that just made the bullies worse
Pre-Chorus
Ab In class, I'd pass the time Ab7 Drawing a slash for every time Abaug Ddim The second hand went by a group of five Done twelve times was a minute
Chorus
Eb Bb7 Eb But Shameika said I had potential Bb7 Eb Shameika said I had potential Bb7 Eb Shameika said I had potential Am6 Shameika said I had potential
Bridge
Am6 Am6 Hurricane Gloria in excelsis deo Am6 That's my bird in my tree Am6 My dog and my man and my music is my holy trinity Am6 Am6 Hurricane Gloria in excelsis deo Am6 That's my bird in my tree Am6 My dog and my man and my music is my holy trinity
Verse 3
Am6 Am6 Am6 Tony told me he'd describe me as pissed off, funny, and warm Am6 Sebastian said I'm a good man in a storm Am6 Back then I didn't know what potential meant Am6 Am6 And Shameika wasn't gentle and she wasn't my friend but Ab Abmaj7 Ab7 Ab6 She got through to me and I'll never see her again Ab Abmaj7 Ab7 Ab6 Eb She got through to me and I'll never see her again I'm pissed off, funny, and warm Eb I'm a good man in a storm Eb And when the fall is torrential, I'll recall **************************************** There is a chromatic descend of the Ab note on the 4th string of the Ab chord. That creates the extensions on the Ab chord. ****************************************
