Washing Dishes

• Eb

Hey guys! So this pretty much my first tab! Got the new Jack Johnson album yesterday and  
was blown away! Anyways, this is a combination of some-what completed tabs of this song  
and covers that I've seen/heard so here you go: 

Notes: Standard tuning, No capo and the Chords kinda switch pretty fast especially with  
the Eb (Which is the one barred version on the 6th fret) 
-Also, any helpful corrections would be great. Its not 100% correct, but at least its  
close. :P

-verse 1- 
Bb                                    Cm    F 
In the morning when the world came awake 
Bb                               Cm   F 
Before you knew me I knew your name 
Bb                                     Cm   F 
It was painted across the day as it breaks 
Bb                              Cm  F 
An impression in your window frame 


         Cm 
When you saw me out your window 
F 
Singing from the garden 
Cm 
Only the beginning 
    F 
I'm only getting started 
Cm 
I don't mind the digging 
F 
Baby, I'll work harder 
Cm 
I've been washing dishes 
 F 
Singing from the bottom 

-verse 2- 
Bb                                   Cm   F 
But one day I'll be running this place 
Bb                             Cm   F 
And one day I could take you away 
Bb                                   Cm   F 
But I want you to wonder what's my name 
Bb                                    Cm   F 
Because I need you to want me the same 

         Cm 
When you saw me washing dishes 
  F 
Singing from the bottom 
Cm 
Only the beginning 
  F 
I'm only getting started 
Cm 
I don't mind the digging 
 F 
Baby, I'll work harder 
Cm 
I've been in the ashes 
 F 
Singing from the garden 

-verse 3- 
Bb                                  Cm   F 
Where everything reaches for the sun 
Bb                              Cm   F 
Still unsure of what we'll become 
Bb                              Cm   F 
But I need you to reach out to me 
Bb                            Cm   F (continue playing F) 
See in me more than I could see 

-Chorus- 

Because I'm afraid that 
Cm                 Eb 
One day is only two words we say 
Bb                       F 
I don't want to let them get in the way 
  Cm                  Eb                        Bb 
Of all the plans that we should be making right now 
F 
Right now 
Cm           Eb 
Who took the time and where did they take it 
Bb 
I want to take it back 
       F 
I don't want them to break it 
Cm                   Eb                  Bb 
All these plans that we should be making right now 
 F 
Right now
