Song: What Was Going Through My Head
By:   The Grapes of Wrath

[intro:]   4 x G

[verse: 1]
G             D             Am
Let me see through all the lights
G                 D         Am
I know I'll feel better in time 
                 F         Em         
You should have told me a lie
            G            Am
I tell you why, I don't know
          F                Em  {4 measures}{bass and band kicks in}
What was going through my head

[verse: 2]
G                 D            Am
Now things have cleared I'm not dead
G                D       Am
Now that I've settled in bed
              F       Em
Should have told me a lie
            G            Am
I tell you why, I don't know
           F              Em  {4 measures} 
What was going through my head

[verse: 3]
G            D            Am
What if I walked off the line
G           D      Am
What if I never revived
              F        Em
Should have told me a lie
            G           Am
I tell you why, I don't know
           F               Em          
What was going through my head
              F               Em
You know it should have been read
             F                Em  {2 measures}
You know it should have been lead

[bridge:]
F             G
Down in deep inside
      Am           G              D   Dsus4  D
I am safe now and then I want to fly
F            G
Away from everything 
           Am        G                D  Dsus4  D
And on my own on my way through the night

[verse: 4]
G                 D              Am
I wake up don't know where I've been
     G               D    Am
And then I'll start over again
                 F         Em
You should have told me a lie
              G          Am
I tell you why, I don't know 
          F                Em
What was going through my head
            G            Am
I tell you why, I don't know
           F               Em   
What was going through my head
            F                Em
You know I should have been read
              F             Em
You know I should have been lead
              F             Em
You know I should have been dead

[coda:]  4 X [ G, D, Am, F ]
               Em F   Em F   Em F
