Digging Holes In The Water Chords - Ugly Casanova


 
Digging Holes In The Water Chords
These are the basic chords used throughout the song. I'll show you the
inversions that I usually like to use when playing it that better fits to
the melody. You'll probably develop your own style but this is a good start
to work off of.

Chords

   G         D(low F#)  Bm*      F#m

G                     D           Bm
i wish that you would move to the sun
      F#m                                  
cause you're like diggin' holes in thin air
       G
and we know that can't be done.

G                     D              Bm
i wish that you would cheat with someone
      F#m
cause you're like diggin' holes in water
       G
and we know that can't be done

G                        
bravery and stupidity go hand in hand
  D                       Bm
i guess that makes me the bravest man
      F#m
i was quick to learn but slow to understand
    G  
well, what can you do

   G
my theories are borrowed from somewhere else
      D                     Bm
and i never had too many to talk about
    F#m
but you were real quick, you were quick to point out
    G
well, that was borrowed too


*I added in Bm even though it really isn't necessary in here but it goes
along and helps with transitioning to the F#m so it's your choice if you'd
like to add it in.


Here are the rest of the lyrics to song obtained from songmeanings.net.

i wish that you would move to the sun
cause you're like diggin' holes in thin air
and we know that can't be done

i wish that you would cheat with someone
cause you're like diggin' holes in water
and we know that can't be done

bravery and stupidity go hand in hand
and i guess that makes me the bravest man
i was quick to learn but slow to understand
well, what can you do

rhetoric and smalltalk are marching on
and i probably am the biggest pawn
cause i was quick to talk and the first to carry on
well, what can you do

you need a permit if you're gonna build shit
and you can't get one so nothing gets built
and your house is standing on a foot and a half of silt

i wish that you would move to the sun
cause you're like diggin' holes in thin air
and we know that can't be done

i wish that you would cheat with someone
cause you're like diggin' holes in water
and we know that can't be done

rhetoric and smalltalk are marching on
and i probably am the biggest pawn
cause i was quick to talk and the first to carry on
well, what can you do

About the artist behind Digging Holes In The Water Chords:

Ugly Casanova is an American indie rock band carried on Sub Pop Records. At present, the band has only released one album: Sharpen Your Teeth. According to the Ugly Casanova website, in 1998 a man named Edgar Graham, a.k.a. "Ugly Casanova", impressed himself upon the band Modest Mouse while backstage at a concert in Denver, Colorado. After some prodding, he shared his work with the band, and began performing it early before shows while some people were milling around. Whenever he completed these performances, he retreated quickly with a look of anger and shame. After a time, a few small recordings were created, after which Edgar vanished.

Isaac Brock has since revealed that Edgar Graham was "a fiction thing that [Brock] started a while back to eliminate [himself] from the band," to escape having to do interviews.[1] One bit of evidence that had previously suggested that story was false: Modest Mouse's 1996 EP The Fruit That Ate Itself was credited to having been under the production company Ugly Casanova, which suggested it was a name Brock made up to retain creative control and publishing rights to his music while under a major label. The band lineup now consists of Isaac Brock (Modest Mouse), Tim Rutili (Califone, Red Red Meat), Pall Jenkins (The Black Heart Procession), John Orth (Holopaw), and Brian Deck.

Two tracks released by Ugly Casanova, "Baby's Clean Conscience" and "Parasites", appear earlier as unreleased demos of Modest Mouse in the Paracite Sessions purportedly recorded in 1993 at Calvin Johnson's Dub Narcotic Studio. In 1997 the single To Roads To Go was released [1] on the apparently now defunct Magic Eye Records, however, this is likely considered an entirely different incarnation of Ugly Casanova by Brock et al.

It seems that another release is unlikely, owing to contract issues between Modest Mouse's label, Epic Records, and the contract Brock signed with Sub Pop Records to produce the record.
