Dispatch - Passerby
Email: Ibanez372@comcast.net
Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)
The four chords used in Dispatch's song, "Passerby", are:
CABG#
|-4----5---7---4---|
|-5----5---7---4---|
|-6----6---8---5---|
|-6----7---9---6---|
|-4----7---9---6---|
|-x----5---7---4---|
I've written these out in the progression most commonly used in the song, which
includes the song's intro.
Verse:
C#m A
Well I'm not crazy like my brother
B G#
But it's the way that I choose
C#m A
I don't hang around with a sixpence
B G#
When I got everything to lose
Etc...this goes for all verses in the song
Chorus:
C#m
Oh, don't you be a passerby
A B
Oh won't you sit down, and stay a while?
C#m
Oh, don't you be a passerby
A B
Oh won't you sit down, and stay a while?
G# C#m....B, A, G#, etc
'Cause it's been too long, since you've been around
The bridge is similar to the chorus, but slightly different:
C#m
Woman, little child
A B
Woman, little child
C#m
Woman, little child (Hey-ey-ey)
A B
Woman, little child
C#m A B G#
Woman, hey woman, hey woman, little chi-i-ild
C#m A B G#
Woman, hey woman, hey woman, little chi-i-ild
Then the song fades to this same progression and repetitions of "Passerby, passerby,
passerby, oh won't you leave me alone?"
Have fun; it's a great song, and pretty damn easy to play, too.
