Also, throughout the song there is a little flourish that comes at the end of some of the
lines. I've tabbed it as "G C G" but it's easiest to play by just moving the fingers you've
got on the low E and A strings up and then back down, like this:
e|-x---x---x--|
B|-3---3---2--|
G|-0---0---0--|
D|-0---2---0--|
A|-2---3---2--|
E|-3---0---3--|
e|--------------|
B|--------------|
G|--------------|
D|------0h2p0---| x 4
A|--------------|
E|-3------------|
followed by: C Cadd6 C Cadd6 C Cadd6 C Cadd6 G C G x 2
(you can get away with doing the G as (320010) if you want-- basically taking the top two
fingers of a C and moving them one string down)
Up and up and up I climb,
When I came up I was so far behind,
My head takes a lickin',
But my heart keeps on tickin,
Just the same.
Always startin' over but somehow,
I always know where to begin.
Round and round and round I ride,
And just when I looked I hadn't even began,
To feel the effect,
A cool, dark fever,
On the brain.
That feelin' takin' over,
Like a holy rollercoaster,
To the grave.
How can I await the day?
And last the night I'm here to see?
How do I await the mother load?
It's the art of feeling naked in your clothes.
Again, again, again I tried,
That's how I knew I would never be denied,
That face in the mirror,
Who could it be? It was my own.
That cool, dark figure,
That's when I knew I was alone.
On and on and on I drive,
When will I know I have finally arrived?
So far I've gone, so far to go,
It never ends.
Always starting over but somehow I always know where to begin
Always starting over but somehow I always know where to begin
Always starting over but somehow I always know where to begin
