Nickel Creek

Reason's Why 

Why Should The Fire Die?

This Side

Like many bands, the three San Diegans of Nickel Creek have their compelling levels of mystery. But sometimes they still get asked to describe their music.  &quot;When I meet someone on a plane, someone who sees the instrument and wants to know what I do,&quot; says mandolinist Chris Thile, &quot;I always say, 'It's acoustic.&quot;  Guitarist Sean Watkins extols the freedom a trio can provide. &quot;Because we knew each other so well musically as well as personally, our songs can take different shapes live without too much thought -- and it's really nice to have three versatile instruments when we leave the page.&quot;

#Verse 1:
E              C#m                A9           B
One day you'll see her and you'll know what I mean.
E           C#m                A9            B   Cdim
Take her or leave her she will still be the same.
C#m        G#     A5                B
She'll not try to buy you with her time.
    E             C#m              A9              B 
But nothing's the same as you will see when she's gone.
 
 
#Chorus 1:
     A               B              C#m          F#m         A
It's foreign on this side, and I'll not leave my home again.
B                   C#m          Bbdim        A
There's no place to hide and I'm nothing but scared.
 
 
#Verse 2: (do verse 1 pattern)
You dream of colors that have never been made.
You imagine songs that have never been played.
They will try to buy you and your mind.
Only the curious have something to find.
 
#Chorus 2: (do chorus 1 pattern)
It's foreign on this side and the truth is a bitter friend.
But reasons few have I to go back again.

#Verse 3:
Your first dawn blinded you, left you cursing the day.
Entrance is crucial and it's not without pain.
There's no path to follow, once you're here.
You'll climb up the slide and then you'll slide down the stairs.
 
#Chorus 3:
It's foreign on this side, but it feels like I'm home again.
B                   C#m        Bbdim           A 
There's no place to hide but I don't think I'm scared.
                    B          Cdim            C#m
There's no place to hide but I don't think I'm scared.
           Bbdim    A          B               E
There's no place to hide but I don't think I'm scared.

                The battle is over.
Fmaj7  C
                Here we all lie
Fmaj7   Am
                 In a dry sea of Solo cups
Fmaj7   G
               With the sun in our eyes.
Fmaj7   C
              But it's one of those endings
Fmaj7   C    
                                                                       
                                            Am           D 
   Where no one claps 'cause they're sure that there's mo-re.

   What a great way to start the first day of the rest of my life.


Fmaj7   C
              I guess the show's going on.
Fmaj7   Am
                 So we pick up the pieces
Fmaj7   G
              We dropped for a song
Dm      C
             And an ear-splitting headache
Fmaj7   C                                                                            

                                         Am             D
That makes it hard to figure out which puzzle they're f-or.    
              F                                   G#
But I can leave this part out of the story I write.
                     G                     F                Em          Dm          Fm       Bb6
And there are worse ways to start the first day of the rest of my life.


Fm                                      Bb6
Roommates, friends, lovers - quiet.
I'm coming to.
                          Fm                     Bb6
I'm turning myself in-to some-thing a little less promising,
                    F
A little mo-re useful.


       (F)
The battle is over.

               Am                                  D
Don't that ceiling look high from the floor?

Don't it hurt just to move  As we shrink from the light?
        Bb                              Dm               C
As it pierces our bodies and thaws out our hearts.

The rest of my life.

Rest Of My Life

A 
The fox went out on a chilly night 
                          E 
He prayed for the moon to give him light 
A                       D 
For head many a mile to go that night 
A         E           A       E       A
Before he reached the town-o, town-o, town-o 
D                   A              E                    A 
Head many a mile to go that night, before he reached the town-o 
 
 
A 
He ran til he came to the farmers pen 
                             E
The ducks and the geese were kept therein 
A                                   D
He said, a couple of you are gonna grease my chin, 
A        E          A       E       A
Before I leave this town-o, town-o, town-o 
D                              A              E                    A
Said a couple of you are gonna grease my chin, before I leave this town-o 
 
 
A
He grabbed the great goose by the neck 
                    E
And he threw a duck across his back 
A                      D
And he didn't mind the quack, quack 
A                E        A       E       A
And the legs all dangling down-o, down-o, down-o 
D	              A                    E                 A
He didn't mind the quack, quack and the legs all dangling down-o 
 
 
A
The old grey woman jumped out of bed 
                      E
Out of the window she popped her head, 
A                            D
Crying John, John, the great goose is gone 
A              E      A       E       A
And the fox is on the town-o, town-o, town-o 
D                     A                     E             A
John, John, the great goose is gone and the fox is on the town-o 
 
 
A
He ran til he came to his nice warm den 
                                E
And there were the little ones, eight, nine, ten 
A                          D
Sayin Daddy, Daddy, better go back again 
A                E          A       E       A
For it must be a might fine town-o, town-o, town-o 
D             A                    E                   A
Daddy, Daddy, go back again for it must be mighty fine town-o 
 
 
A
The fox and his wife, without any strife 
                        E
Cut up the goose with a fork and a knife 
A                     D
They never had such a supper in their life 
A                   E             A        E        A
And the little ones chewed on the bones-o, bones-o, bones-o 
D                     A
They never had such a supper in their life 
        E                         A
And the little ones chewed on the bones 


C#m      B         A          E
I didn't hear you say you're sorry.
F#m        C#m      G#7
The fault must be mine.
C#m        B        A       E
I wish you all the best of luck at
F#m  C#m          B         E
Finding somebody more like you.

C#m            B       A      E
You said you'd love me always truly.
F#m C#m      G#7
I must have changed.
C#m              B       A        E
'Cause you don't need me like you used to.
F#m        C#m           B         E
I hope you find somebody more like you.

Chorus-type thing
B                           F#m
I hope you finally find someone.
                 A
Someone that you trust.
                  B
And give him everything.
                             F#m
I hope you meet someone your height,
                      A
So you can see eye to eye.
     C#m        G#7      C#m
With someone as small as you.


C#m             B        A       E
You came out of nowhere, made me smile.
F#m  C#m        G#7
Then tore me in two.
C#m                B        A       E
Saying we're very different people, so dear.
F#m        C#m           B         A
I hope you find somebody more like you.
           C#m           B         E
I hope you find somebody more like you.

Somebody More Like You


Verse 1:
     E             B       A              E     E
Flow gently, sweet Afton, among thy green braes,
     C#m           B          A           E     E
Flow gently, I'll sing thee a song in thy praise;
My Mary's asleep by thy murmuring stream,
Flow gently, sweet Afton, disturb not her dream.

Verse 2:
Thou stock dove whose echo resounds thro' the glen,
Ye wild whistly blackbirds in yon thorny den,
Thou green crested lapwing, thy screaming forbear,
I charge you, disturb not my slumbering fair.

Chorus:
    C#m          B          A           E    E
How lofty, sweet Afton, thy neighboring hills,
    F#m             F#m        A             B    B
Far mark'd with the courses of clear winding rills;
      G#m     A         G#         C#m  B  A  E
There daily I wander as noon rises high, oooh,
    F#m          F#m          A         B     B
My flocks and my Mary's sweet cot in my eye.

Verse 3:
How pleasant thy banks and green valleys below, 
Where, wild in the woodlands, the primroses blow;
There oft, as mild evening sweeps over the lea,
The sweet-scented birk shades my Mary and me.

Chorus:
Thy crystal stream, Afton, how lovely it glides,
And winds by the cot where my Mary resides;
How wanton thy waters her snowy feet lave,
As, gathering sweet flowerets, she stems thy clear wave.

Verse 4:
Flow gently, sweet Afton, among thy green braes,
Flow gently, sweet river, the theme of my lays; 
My Mary's asleep by thy murmuring stream,
Flow gently, sweet Afton, disturb not her dreams.

Sweet Afton

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:

Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day

Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

Gonna Be A Long Time

C#
There's a portrait
     Ab
In a back room
           F#
Which I'll keep for days upon

Which I relent 
              B
And gaze for hours on
    Bbm                  F#
The muscle, skin and bone
         Ab
Of some imaginary friend

F# Ab F#

So how about it

Show me please

How I will look in twenty years
           C#
And let me please

Interpret history 
       Bbm        F#
In every line and scar 
               Ab                  
That's painted there in front of me

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

What I'm thinking

What I tell myself to do
         C#      F#
I end up calling

       C#
I stay in to
                   Ab
Defrost the fridge
        F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
             C#
A feeling of dread
              B         
At least when she's around
    Bbm
The trouble's there
     F#                        Ab
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother

To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.
