Just Like Anyone
Soul Asylum
Soul Asylum "Just Like Anyone" From "Let Your Dim Light Shine" Transcribed by Bryan Pero () Okay this is a pretty easy song. There are two guitars playing at most times. Gtr. 1 (Dave Pirener) plays first position chords while Gtr. 2 (Dan Murphy) plays barre chords. On the verses hit a D chord once then palm mute it and strum. Then when you play G upstroke it once. [Verse I] She walks into the outhouse the cold night breathes into her face The flies are standing still now the moon it spills through the place [Chorus I] And she starts wondering what it’s like to be liked by everyone and And like everyone be just like anyone who just wants to be so Just like anyone just like anyone [Verse II] She reaches through the darkness her fingers touch the porcelain seat She spins and pulls her pants down the cold air holds her like a thief [Chorus II] And she starts wondering what they mean do they just mean to be mean And thinking about the scene do they just want to be seen Try not to seem so Just like anyone Just like anyone [Guitar Solo] Gtr. 1 strum chords about tab. I’ve included the time on the CD at certain points above the tab to help you follow.
