Hang On To Your Ego

Frank Black - Hang On To Your Ego

---------------------------------

Please feel free to correct any mistakes I made. I haven't been playing

for too long, and this is my first attempt at a transcription.

 

verse 1

-------

I know so many people who think they can do it alone

They oscillate their heads and stay in the city zone

But what can ya tell them

What can ya say that will make them defensive?

------

So, hang on to your ego.

hang on, but I know that your gonna lose the fight

they come home like they're peaceful, but inside their so uptight

they troop through their day and waste all their thoughts at night

verse 2

-------

but how can I say it

how can I come home when I know I'm guilty

So, hang on to your ego.

hang on, but I know that your gonna lose the fight

Chords before and during solo:

 

 

Then repeat verse 2 and chorus

Note: I imagine that frank black plays this song with his guitar tuned

down 1/2 step, but I hate re-tuning my guitar, so these chords

are in standard tuning. I play all the chords sorta like barre

chords.
