Trampled by Turtles - Western World 

 
capo 3 

I wrote down the lyrics myself because I couldn't find them anywhere. so there are probably some mistakes  
here and there, this is just my closest guess. 

Also I'm pretty sure they don't actually play Em9/F# between the G and Em, so feel free to leave it out, but it  
sounds better in my opinion if you don't have a bass player backing you. 

G       Em9/F#  Em 

C           G        Am       Em 
The sun was high and good for travel 
C       G         Am     Em         G   Em9/F#  Em 
I don't mind when things unravel in the western world 
C              G            Am        Em 
a slave to the light in the cool dark shadow 
C           G           Am      Em         G   Em9/F#   Em 
I passed my time in the bracket shallow of the western world 
C   G   Am  Em 
Ooh ooh ooh ooh 
C          G         Am          Em 
we were in love in a wild desert memory 
C            G        Am         Em       G   Em9/F#  Em 
now why does love get broken and heavy in the western world 
C           G         Am      Em 
the past is alive and I can't shake it 
C               G             Am           Em         G   Em9/F#  Em 
all you need to survive is to learn how to fake it in the western world 
C   G   Am  Em 
Ooh ooh ooh ooh 

C      G        Am     Em 
We are leaving, we are gone 

One Down/Up strum on each of these 
C G Am Em 
Back to strumming after Am 
C G Am Em 

C G Am Em x 3 


C        G            Am        Em 
we slept outside in a peaceful surrender 
C          G        Am       Em       G   Em9/F#  Em 
the secret lies, we tried to remember the western world 
C           G          Am     Em 
all the bad days, with blurry borders 
C              G              Am     Em          G  Em9/F#  Em 
we changed our clothes in the hidden corners of the western world 
C   G   Am  Em 
Ooh ooh ooh ooh 
C       Am      Em     G 
we are leaving, we are gone 
C     Am     Em     G 
C     Am     Em
