The Belly Of Your Bedroom 
The Smith Street Band 

Hey guys, 

Here is another one off my favorite album at the moment.  I put up the Self Control tab  
also but it was before I had an account.  I saw a comment asking for more tabs so here  
it goes! 

This one is pretty easy once you figure out the rhythm, just a few hammer ons you should  
note:  Almost every time it says D, theres a hammer on the high G (third fret on the  
tiniest string) 

I really hope the formatting doesnt get butchered here. 

INTRO  (strum this intro, the notes I tabbed out are the ones that sound the loudest,  
Wil strums the chords at the bottom of the tab strum up AND down, especially around the D below)

      G             D           Cadd9            D 

verse 1 

G              D                   Cadd9                 D 
Our hero sits unsteadily on a highway rocking chair 

G              D                   Cadd9                      D 
Bottle of white wine, the wind it ruffles his well-cut hair 

G                      D                  Cadd9           D 
And her eyes they focus backwards to the people that he needs 

G                               D          Cadd9                  D 
They hold my instruments and my backup, and shirts with cut off sleeves 


G                     D            Cadd9                D 
She told me that she kissed you and then she told me more 

G                   D           Cadd9                D 
Our hero knows I'm angry and he knows that I'm a bore 

G                    D                   Cadd9          D 
I'm sad when it is raining, when the sun comes I'm a freak 

G                  D                  Cadd9               D* 
Our hero lives in mild temperatures and gets eight hours sleep 


Chorus 
G 
And I know that Im a liar 

D 
And I know I cant fill your desires 

Em7                                       Cadd9 (walk down C, B, A, Gmaj7) 
With a body that's always gonna let the both of us down 

G 
And half smiles in the belly of your bedroom 

D 
And half lies that I never should have told you 

Em7                                  Cadd9 
My demise is only gonna let one of us down 

D                               G       D       Cadd9           D 
And darling I'm going 


verse 2 

G                       D             Cadd9         D 
My back it aches for transport, I can hardly feel my feet 
My stitches are slowly but surely falling out of me 
I know I'm not exciting but I never claimed to be 
And I'll live for this morning, and I will live and let you leave 

 G                         D                        Em7 
And I don't understand why we have to be on standby while you're overseas 

Cadd9                     D 
Can't you be free and still know me? 

        G                                D 
And our hero keeps his secrets locked up somewhere in his teeth 

Em7                                         D*                          Maybe I'll break  
one or two just to hear him speak 


Chorus 2 

BRIDGE 

  Em7               G           Cadd9 
To find somewhere for us to sleep 

                          Em7              G            Cadd9 
And darling I'm going to work on every single inch of me 

               Em7              G                 Cadd9 
And darling I'm going to find somewhere for us to sleep 

               Em7              G 
And darling I'm going to keep on living, to keep on living 

    Cadd9       D 
To keep on keeping on 


Final Chorus 
(This is where you get your friends to start clapping the drums for you, knock on your  
guitar a little bit)
