Greg Graffin - Opinion chords

Opinion 
by Greg Graffin, from the album American Lesion

TAB and Chord layout by Nasgul07


Standard tuning:  E A D G B E

Riff 1 & 2 are actually played on keyboard and possibly banjo/e-banjo in the 
original, along to the backing chords on guitar (see above RIFF 1 & 2), but it 
still sounds good played on the guitar.

    C           G   D              C        G      D
The first thing I remember was the friction in the room

         C        G     D        Em              G  D  
And that brown spinet piano that never played in tune

    C       G       D               C      G     D  
The cruel impatient tyrant, the frustrated malcontent,

    C       G        D               Em           D
The need to find the pieces, and the absence of cement



C           G                 C     G      D
No one ever told me about the right way to love

    C           G                    D               
And no one ever showed me what we're supposed to be made of
    
   C                 G                    C          G        D
So don't be too forthright about what you think that I should be
 
         C           G              D         G        
And I'll willingly accept your low opinion of me


//RIFF 1//

    C          G   D              C        G      D
The last thing I remember was the slamming of the door

        C               G    D                 Em           G  D
And the resonance of my imperfection broke the silence once more

    C       G     D           C       G       D
The selfish angry bastard who doesn't want to hear
 
  C        G        D           Em               D
I tried to learn compassion you turned the other ear



C           G                 C     G      D
No one ever told me about the right way to love

    C           G                    D                     
And no one ever showed me what we're supposed to be made of
    
   C                 G                    C          G        D   
So don't be too forthright about what you think that I should be
 
         C           G              D         G
And I'll willingly accept your low opinion of me

    C        G      D          C       G       D
The worn out broken record who doesn't fit the mold

    C         G   D            C       G         D
The righteous independent, the mood so harsh and cold




C           G                 C     G      D
Momma never told me about the right way to love

C               G                    D                           
And daddy never showed me what we're supposed to be made of

    
   C                 G                    C          G        D     
So don't be too forthright about what you think that I should be

         C           G              D         G
And I'll willingly accept your low opinion of me
