I recently saw Mr. Bazan in concert and wanted to play some of his new songs. Saw
a bunch of requests for tabs on YouTube so here they are. Any
questions/suggestions drop me a line at

Verse 1
/ /
You used to feel like a smoker. Shivering in the cold.
/
Waiting outside the bar til the opener s over.
/ /
But now you feel like a drinker - twenty days off the sauce.
/
Down at the liquor store, trying to call your sponsor.
Chorus 1
C#min C#min/
You used to feel like a forest fire burning,
/
but now you feel like a child
C#min C#min/C F X (mute all strings and strum)
throwing tant---rums for your turn.
Verse 2
/ /
You used to feel like a prophet and everyone wanted to know,
/
how you could tell the truth without losing that soft glow.
/ /
But now you feel like a preacher, evoking the flames of hell.
/
Some drunk fisherman chasing after the white whale.
Chorus 2 (same as the first)
You used to feel like a forest fire burning,
but now you feel like a child throwing tantrums for your turn.
You used to feel like a prodigal returning,
but now you hate what you made and you want to watch it burn.
End on F
