You and I and I
As performed live by Matchbox20
Transcribed by Chad Gibson

This song is performed live by the band, so I don't have a great
copy to go by. I got the beginning solo tabbed out, and the "middle"
solo is basically the same. I'm working on the main solo though, as
it is somewhat complicated (listen to the song!) The chords are 
pretty basic- listen to the song to get the timing. 
Also, if anyone can figure out those lyrics after the chorus, or
fix the ones I did wrong, please E-Mail me at the address below.

(Two powerful strums, then dampen)
        Em
its for sure
                      D
when things came down hard
                G
but you couldnt wait
C                         Em
all i ever think about is myself
     D                     G
well anyone else- they get strung out
         C
but I get high, high, high
(hold out chords)
Em                                           G
well boy there's something you've better get straight
                          D
I don't got no room in my life
                          C
pick up the anchor set it free

Em
Well..Stop
G
Well I
                D
I don't want to thank you honey
        C
I don't think so
           Em         G
You better stop, well try
                 D 
and if there's a distance here between us
    C
its you and I...and I
           Em                  D    
Well its a shame you pander to me
                     G
come on stroke on my ego
         C                        Em         
like its never been broke before -hell- by anyone else
                 D
and what doesn't kill you
         G
it makes you linger
C
and it makes you wonder

Em          G
..                        D
think of the one thing Im being
    
and what doesn't kill you 
       C
doesn't stay yet

Em
Well..Stop
G
Well I
                D
I don't want to thank you honey
        C
I don't think so
           Em         G
You better stop, well try
                 D 
and if there's a distance here between us
    C
its you and I...and I

(Solo) - 
(I'm working on it)

well boy there's something you've better get straight
I don't got no room in my life
pick up the anchor set it free
Well..Stop
Well I
I don't want to thank you honey
I don't think so.
You better stop, well try
and if there's a distance here between us
its you and I...and I
(chorus)
