Hang
Rob Thomas
Matchbox 20
Yourself or Someone Like You

This was the only song on the album that Rob plays guitar,
and it's a pretty neat part. I hope you enjoy it!

The intro tab continues through parts of the verse. I will indicate the correct
chords over the lyrics, and you guys figure out which ones should have the "intro
sound" to them.
G
She grabs her magazines
Cmaj7
She packs her things and she goes
Em7 D
She leaves the pictures hanging on the wall
G Cmaj7 G
She burns all her notes she knows
D Cmaj7
She's been here too few years to feel this old
He smokes a cigarette
He stays outside till it's gone
If anybody ever had a heart, well
He wouldn't be alone he knows
She's been here too few years to be gone
CHORUS
G Am7 C
And we always say
G Am7 C
"It would be good to go away someday"
Em D
Yeah but if there's nothing there to make things change
Cmaj7
If it's the same for you I'll just hang
Cmaj7
G Cmaj7 (instrumental)
The trouble understand
Is she got reasons he don't
Funny how I couldn't see at all
G Cmaj7 G
Until she grabbed up her coat and she goes
D
She's been here too few years
G Cmaj7
To take it all in stride
G D Cmaj7
Yeah well still it's much too long to let hurt go let her go
CHORUS 2x
And we always say
"It would be good to go away someday"
Em D
Yeah but if there's nothing there to make things change
Cmaj7
If it's the same for you I'll just hang
D7
The same for you I'll always hang
G Am7 C
Well I always say
G Am7 C
"It would be good to go away"
Em D
But if things don't work out like we think
Em D
And there's nothing there to ease this achin'
Em D
But if there's nothing there to make things change
Cmaj7
If it's the same for you I'll just hang
