United Breaks Guitars Song 2

Dave Carroll


Tom: D

D         Gmaj7         D                Bmin7
What did you mean when you said you were sorry?
D     A7sus4      D
I'm a bit confused
D       Gmaj7         D          Bmin7
I think you are all for wrecking my guitar 
D     A7sus4      D
But you don't think you do

G                          A9                D9
I found a guy who fixed for twelve hundred bucks 
               Bmin7
But you tell me that you’re sorry
D9              A7
And it's my tough luck 
G               D9                      A7
United sees no need to make anything right
G
Oh, Mrs. Irlwig!
A7sus4               D
We don't need to fight


[Chorus]
A7           D          G
If you just come to your senses
D                    G
Accept the consequences
                D               Bmin7
Of you letting certain baggage handlers
G                           A
Smash my property

D                  G
We could be best buddies
D                      G
But our friendship has been muddied
 D          Bmin7  G      A     D
By a flawed United Airlines policy


[Verse]
D         Gmaj7         D           Bmin7
I sense tone in your last couple emails
D     A7sus4      D
Why is that the case?
D       Gmaj7         D      Bmin7
Is it that I've got questions
D             A7sus4
You've got the answers
  D
You don't wanna face

G                          A9            D9
You've gonne dark and silent as a submarine
               Bmin7
Leaving me hanging like Apollo thirteen
D9           A7 G             D9        A7
Adrift in space alone with no ending side
G
Oh, Mrs. Irlwig way!
A7sus4               D
We don't need to fight


[Chorus]
A7           D          G
If you just come to your senses
D                    G
Accept the consequences
                D               Bmin7
Of you letting certain baggage handlers
G                  A
Smash my property

D                  G
We could be best buddies
D                      G
But our friendship has been muddied
 D          Bmin7  G      A     D
By a flawed United Airlines policy
