Sharon Van Etten - Don't Do It
Standard tuning
Capo on 6th fret
All chords relative to capo
Chords used in the song:
? () ()
Notes: The chord labeled "?" above is sometimes played as a traditional
chord (above, in parentheses), but it is often difficult to tell which is
being played because the song is mostly downstrokes concentrating on the
four lowest strings (, , , and ). The same goes for vs.
(also above, in parentheses). Play whatever sounds best to you.
The is used only a few times throughout the song as a variation on
by hammering on the string. I have separated the chords with commas in
those spots.
Chord changes are placed (roughly) above the word in the lyrics where
they occur. Chord changes placed after the end of a line take place after
the last word of that line but before the first word of the next line.
(Intro)
? ,, (play twice, then continue into verse)
Said you need to do it
?
'Cause you can't feel it tonight
Well you can if you want to
Want to take you outside
?
Want to show you the sky
To remind you why you shouldn't
?
Do your worst if you can
Do your worst if you can do it
You can if you want
?
You can take it, ya, you want to run
Said you wanted to then kissed the gun
You can if you want to
?
And you want to do it
And you want to do it
If you want to do it
?
You are going to do it
Even if I don't want you to
Say it outright
?
That you don't want to see me tonight
,
And you won't if you don't want to
Hide it from me if you must
?
Hide it from me if you don't trust
Anything I say right to you
?
And you want to do it
If you want to do it
You will if you want to
?
And you want to do it
If you want to do it
You will if you want to
?
And you want to do it
And you want to do it
If you want to do it
?
You are going to do it
Even if I don't want you to
I was inside
?
Painting your name on the window
I was somewhere inside
And I wanted to find out why you're hiding
?
I was tired of the fight
Look me in the eyes, say you can't do it
?
Look me in the eyes, say you can't do it, but
You will if you want to
Look me in the eyes, say you can't do it
?
Look me in the eyes, say you can't do it, but
You will if you want to
?
And you want to do it
And you want to do it
If you want to do it
?
You are going to do it
Even if I don't want you to
(short instrumental - ? - continue to next line)
?
Shake it down
So much better
Tell me that you don't know what you do
?
And you want to do it
If you want to do it
You will if you want to
?
And you want to do it
If you want to do it
You will if you want to
?
And you want to do it
If you want to do it
You will if you want to
?
I wish I could make you right
