Did not find a complete listing for this song.
Plus the other listing is off. So I sat down
and figured it out one night.

Capo: 2 fret  Key of:E
"Frying Pan"  (Victoria Williams) 
As Performed by Evan Dando

Fade Intro: D G

D      Em                 G  
One laugh in the middle of a struggle, 
D       Em                G 
Diamond at the bottom of a puddle. 
G                               A 
Did you ever stare at the moon, 'till you saw double, 
D          Em             G 
I hear you walk away from trouble. 


D          Em             G 
Good love, there ain't no denying, 
D             Em             G 
Say bad love, somebody ain't trying 
G                              A 
Did you ever walk some place, just to take time, 
D           Em                G 
Or take the fast road and get going. 


G                         A 
And then the rules break, there's no mistake, 
D                        A 
These are precious times, you and I, 
A                 D - Em - G 
We walk the line. 
G                 D - Em - G 
We walk the line. 


G 
I looked in a frying pan, 
A 
I sang a song. 
G 
I looked at a dying man. 
A  (pause)      A  A  A  A
He sang along.

           
A             D       G
We   got mountains
G              D      Em
(Yeah) we got peaches
D                          Em
We got love that makes us mad
G                        A
We got love that has to teach us
