EASY CHORDS
This awesome song is supposed to be tuned a whole step down. But just slap on a capo 3
with these easy chords, it sounds just about perfect when playing along. Lots of
hammer-ons and pull offs. But start with this, to get the hang of it. -Jack
[Intro]

[Verse 1]
C G
The clouds move over Pontiac skies
C G
Their silent thunder matches mine
C G - D - Em
I know this feeling from long ago
C D
I wondered was it gone but now I know
[Pre-Chorus]
Em D C
So when she calls don't send her my way
Em D C
When it hurts you'll know it?s the right thing
[Chorus]
Em G C
Michigans in the rear view now
Em G C
Keep your hands where I can see em
Em G C
You took the words right out my mouth
Em G C
When you knew that I would need em
Em G C
What am I supposed to do now?
G D
Without you, without you
[Break]
Em G C
Em D G
[Verse 2]
C G
It's unannounced, like you'd expect it
C G
Among broke down brake lines and Motown records
C G - D - Em
And all that?s left is a blind reflection
C D
But you know what?s coming and you regret it
[Pre-Chorus]
Em D C
So when she calls don't send her my way
Em D C
When it hurts most its the right thing
[Chorus]
Em G C
Michigans in the rear view now
Em G C
Keep your hands where I can see em
Em G C
You took the words right out my mouth
Em G C
When you knew that I would need em
Em G C
What am I supposed to do now?
G D
Without you, without you
[Chorus]
Em G C
Michigans in the rear view now
Em G C
Keep your hands where I can see em
Em G C
You took the words right out my mouth
Em G C
When you knew that I would need em
Em G C
What am I supposed to do now?
G D
Without you, without you
