Pay Attention
The Wood Brothers
This song is in the key of C major and is 3/4 time.
He uses pretty standard chord voicings. The only one that
might be foreign to some would be the Gm9 which is played like this:
E|--5--|
B|--3--|
G|--3--|
D|--5--|
A|--5--|
E|--3--|
I usually play it without the root but that’s just my preference.
Not sure how Oliver plays it each time through. Anyhow, here’s the song...
Intro:
3/4 || | | | | |
| | | | ||
(Listen to CD for proper strumming and timing)
VERSE:
Please pay attention to me
Was the last thing I heard as I drifted to sleep
With children to tend to
and a worrying mind
With too much to do
and not enough time
CHORUS:
I hate to be needy
Selfish and greedy
But please pay attention to me
BREAK: (same as intro - “Me” is on the C chord of this break)
..Me
3/4 || | | | | |
| | | | ||
VERSE 2: (same chords as first verse)
Please pay attention to me
Was the last thing I heard comin’ out of my dream
I got something to tell you
And the sun has gone down
And if you don’t listen
I’ll talk much too loud
CHORUS: (Same as 1st chorus)
I hate to be Needy
Selfish and greedy
But please pay attention to me
BRIDGE:
Why don’t you look my way
I’m waving my arms and callin’ your name
There’s too much to mention
That grabs your attention
So please pay attention to me
HARMONICA SOLO: (starts on C on the word “me” from the chorus)
..Me
3/4 || | | | | |
| | | | | |
| | | ||
BRIDGE 2:
I Guess I could cut myself free
And why should I care if you listen to me
With children to tend to
And a worrying mind
With too much to do
And not enough time
OUTRO CHORUS:
I hate to be needy
Selfish and greedy
I hate to keep asking
Beggin’ and pleadin’.
I’m down on my knees
Under your window screamin’
Please pay attention to me
Please pay attention to me
Yeah, please pay attention to me...
That’s it. Let me know if you have something different
(and make sure you’re tuned properly before submitting this a
half step higher or lower! haha)
