These Are the Thoughts chords by
Alanis Morissette
Alanis Morissette

N/A
Verse 1
D

These are the thoughts

that go through my head

In my backyard on a Sunday afternoon

When I have the house to

myself and I am not

Expending all that energy on fighting
Bm
G
Gsus2
D

With my boyfriend

Is he the one that I will marry

And why's it so hard to

be good to myself?

And why do I feel cellularly alone?

Am I supposed to live in this crazy city
Bm
G

You mean I'm not acorn
D

Verse 2
D

Where does the money go

that I send

To charities, if we have so much

why do some people have

Nothing, still why do I feel frantic when I

First wake up in the morning?
Bm

Why do you say you are spiritual
G

Yet you treat people like shit?
D

Verse 3
D

How can you say you're close to God,

and yet you talk behind

My back as though I'm not a part of you,

why do you say "I'm fine"

When it's obvious you are not,
Bm

why's it so hard to tell you what I want
G
D

Why can't you just read my mind?
Verse 4
D

Why do I fear that the quieter I am

The less people will listen

Why do I care whether you

like me or not

Why's it so hard for me to be angry

Why's it so hard to become passionate
Bm

and so easy to get stuck
G

And not the other way around
D

Verse 5
Bm
G

Will I ever move back to Canada
D

Can I be with a lover with

whom I am a student
Bm

And a master,
G

why am I encouraged to shut my mouth
D

When it gets too close to home,

why cannot I
Bm
G

Live in the moment
D

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
