Song : (I want to live on an) Abstract Plain

Artist: Frank Black

Album : Teenager of the Year

Intro: C#m F# E x 4

E F# G#

I've had it with this town

I'm building a frame

E F# B E

I never saw those shifting skies

A place to put my ten yard stare

E F# G#

I never saw the ground

Thinking of that paint

Am F#

Or the sunset rise

Painted in plein-air

Am E F# C#m

I want to live on an abstract plain

C#m Am C#m

I need a new address

Am C#m

I want some new terrain

Tell me I'm not insane

Am C#m

Is or north or south

Is it up or down

E F# C#m

I want to live on an abstract plain

E F# G#

I could sit on the roof

E F# B E

On top of that abstract house

E F# G#

See my abstract view

Am F#

An abstract mouse

Am E F# C#m

I want to live on an abstract plain

outro: C#m F# E x 4

This is in standard tuning. I'm not sure about some of the chords

being major or minor chords, my ear isn't too good. Please post any

corrections! or e-mail me.
