What Have I Done Chords

Capo 5th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 The F is played 0332xx at first, and then the first fret is hammered on for the rest of

chord.

 For the Am, strum x00000 and hammer on the entire chord in more or less the same rhythm

 for the F.

The same progression is played throughout, so I'm only going to put the chords in for

first two verses (so you get an idea of timing). It's pretty straightforward. Also note

other than the two lines of laughter (and the Am/C/Dm/G7 progression that follows),

no breaks inbetween the verses.

F A year now and Cnothing much has changed

F Holed up in a motel in CEl Paso

Am This was meant to Cbe my great escape

 But, I got Dmlost along the way

 Amongst free G7HBO and take-out

F Going to write my CMoby Dick

F More like scratching lyrics on Cpaper plates

Am I spent the Cbest years of my life

 Waiting on the Dmbest years of my life

G7So what's there to write about?

What have I done?

What have I done?

So is this my destiny?

From starlight into eternity

The gods must be laughing down at me

Ha, ha, ha

Ha, ha, ha

A traveling salesmen at twenty years old

Stranded in Ann Arbor with a flat tire

And I watch the sun sadly set

Any younger, I may have wept

Much older, I wouldn't notice

But I was out there in the world

Yeah, then the world, it passed me by

I was telling everyone back home

That I was taking it by storm

Instead, I watched it from the roadside

What have I done?

What have I done?

So are these the best tales I can spin?

A boy waiting to begin

A man with no memoirs

What have I done?

What have I done?

You're young and you're going to be someone

Then you're old and you're ashamed of what you've become

Well, take a look around you, You're preaching to the choir

What have I done? What have I done? (Repeat endlessly, or until your lose your voice...)
