Song: Oh When My Body Stops Tab

Oh When My Body Stops
John Hartford
You tube: Washington DC 1970
Banjo tuned E, Capo 3, Key of: E

The F# doesn't quite sound right; any help there appreciated...v.g.

  E                     
Say that I stop changing
             A       E
Say that I stop growing
    E
Say that I stop growing
                   A   E
Is to admit that I am dead

Chorus 1:
  F#                 E
Oh----when my body stops
                        A            E
My brain will have to slam on its brakes

And it will skid on ----a- few- more- feet
  A         E
Before it crashes

Chorus 2:
  E            
Say that I am a thinker
                       A   E
Just say that I know something
   E                              
It is to say that I know something
     A            E
Is nothing in itself
  F#
Oh---when my poetry stops
My brain will slam on its brakes
Will it skid--- on a few more feet
Before it whispers

Chorus 1:
  E
Oh---to say that I am imperfect
                A     E
Is to say that I am human

And to say I am human
    A          E
Is perfection in itself

Chorus 1:
