Song: Michigan
By:   The Milk Carton Kids

{ capo fret 3 }

[intro:]   {guitar}
        |Em  |G  |C  |
        |Em  |D  |C  |
        |Em  |G  |C  |
        |Em  |D  |G  |

[verse: 1]
      C                G
The clouds move over Pontiac skies
       C              G
Their silent thunder matches mine
   C                      G   D  Em
I know this feeling from long a--go
    C                             D
I wondered was it gone but now I know
 
 
[pre-chorus:]
             Em          D           C
So when she calls don't send her my way
         Em           D             C
When it hurts you'll know it's the right thing
 
 
[chorus:]
  Em              G         C
Michigans in the rear view now
      Em              G         C
Keep your hands where I can see em
     Em                   G      C
You took the words right out my mouth
          Em       G            C
When you knew that I would need em
     Em      G            C
What am I supposed to do now
           G            D
Without you, without you
 
[:]
        |Em  |G  |C  |
        |Em  |D  |G  |

[verse: 2]
        C                G
It's unannounced, like you'd expect it
       C                          G
Among broke down brake lines and Motown records
     C                     G -   D - Em
And all that's left is a blind reflection
         C                          D
But you know what's coming and you regret it
 
[pre-chorus:]
             Em          D           C
So when she calls don't send her my way
         Em           D             C
When it hurts you'll know it's the right thing
 
 
[chorus:]
  Em              G         C
Michigans in the rear view now
      Em              G         C
Keep your hands where I can see em
     Em                   G      C
You took the words right out my mouth
          Em       G            C
When you knew that I would need em
     Em      G            C
What am I supposed to do now
           G            D
Without you, without you
 
[chorus:]
  Em              G         C
Michigans in the rear view now
      Em              G         C
Keep your hands where I can see em
     Em                   G      C
You took the words right out my mouth
          Em       G            C
When you knew that I would need em
     Em      G            C
What am I supposed to do now
           G            D
Without you, without you
