Underdog

Lisa Loeb - Cake and Pie, Hello Lisa, Underdog EP.

This is a great song to play, when you get it. I know that this is accurate because Lisa herself gave me the tuning, and I have listened to a live recording over and over again. I alternate between the 700700 and a 020200 chord, because it sounds nicer that way. Use your ear and your guts to make this sounds nice :)

Tune your B string to A to have the tuning of EADGAE

     I am the underdog, I am the last in line
     Don’t be the enemy, don’t stand in back of me
     Freezing, boring, wondering where I’ll be on my 
     birthday.
 
     You kissed me in a dream last night.
