The Existential Life Of Ants Uke tab by Haley Blais

[Verse]

G

The icnident with Karen's dog

Em

Still haunts me to this day

Cmaj7

I opened up the door to have a smoke

G               D

And he just ran away

G

My father, he is an actor

Em

And actors they love to cry

Cmaj7                                        G                   D

But I never saw him sob on stage like he did when princess Diana died

[Chorus]

Cmaj7

And I know it may feel heavy

G

The weight that you wear on your back

Cmaj7                      G

You'll drop it when you're ready

B7                                   Em

And realize that you don't need that load of all the worry

Cmaj7

And all the things you thought that you can't

G                             D

And you'll find you relate to the existential life of ants

[Verse]

G

I used to hang out in the garden

Em

'till I got allergies

Cmaj7                                            G                   D

Now I can't stick my nose in a rose by any other name would smell as sweet

G

It's been years since I've spoken to Karen

Em

I know that she blames me

Cmaj7                                                   G                               D

'cause I guess that the death the words promised on the carton of the cigarettes wasn't for me

[Chorus]

Cmaj7

And I know it may feel heavy

G

The weight that you wear on your back

Cmaj7                      G

You'll drop it when you're ready

B7                                   Em

And realize that you don't need that load of all the worry

Cmaj7

And all the things you thought that you can't

G                             D

And you'll find you relate to the existential life of ants

[Bridge]

Cmaj7

'cause we're much too small to think at all

G

About our wage or our status quo

Cmaj7            G

We just carry on one by one 

B7                             Em

And bow to the queen before we go

G

Oooh (x4)

[Chorus]

Cmaj7

And I know it may feel heavy

G

The weight that you wear on your back

Cmaj7                      G

You'll drop it when you're ready

B7                                   Em

And realize that you don't need that load of all the worry

Cmaj7

And all the things you thought that you can't

G                             D

And you'll find you relate to the existential life of ants
