Cross-Eyed Bear - by Damien Rice Like most of Damo's stuff, there are a lot of hammer-ons in the song on the chords. Also, here's the gist of how he plays the lead, relative to the capo obviously: e|---------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------| G|----4-5-7-7-----7/9-7-5-7-----7/9-7-5-4-2-0--------------------------| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------| verse 1: I broke your doll, It was cross eyed, that's all, I only wanted it to help it see straight, But like a half broken moon, Sooner than soon, I was up on your wall, Smaller than small, In a half painted frame, The wood wouldn't stain, And I hope that reminds you, Of the part you couldn't change in me, If you push me I'll fall, If you pull me I'll drown, If you're gonna be nailin' me down, I won't rise again verse 2: I scratched your car, Where the bird left a stain, But I only wanted to help you see straight, But like a half broken moon, Sooner than soon, I was up on your wall, Smaller than small, In a half painted frame, Where the wood wouldn't stain, And I hope that reminds you, Of the part you couldn't change in me, Chorus:
