OK, I used to read music but that was a long time ago. It seems I invent another style of notation every time I try writing/transcribing another song! I had trouble following printie's chords; was his/her guitar tuned down a whole step? See what you think of this mess. Just wait till I try to write it in tabs, w/ all the bass & lead embellishments for solo guitar (like when?)... CHORD LIST (lowest on scale to highest): (E) (E(g#)) (F#m) (A) (F#m(c#)) (Bm) (D) "(E(g#))" is an inverted E major chord, starting on G#, that is: B (highest note)(leave this note out if it's too hard) E B G# (lowest) (does such a chord have a proper name? Anyone?) Similarly, "(F#m(c#))" is an inverted F# minor chord, starting on C#, that is: C# (leave this note out if it's too hard) A E C# (proper chord name?) ------------- (God help me. OK, here goes...) ------------- INTRO: (A)... (F#m) (E(g#)) (A)... (F#m) (E) Well, (A)'way out yonder, where the (D)wild wind (A)blows (D)(A) There's a (F#m)place there (Bm)lonely (D)fools can (F#m)go (E) Where if you (A)hold your money, it'll (D)burn your (A)hand (D)(A) So you (F#m)buy you a (Bm)ticket to the (D)shadow-(Fm)land(E) CHORUS: Down the (A)highway, down the road I'm bound And my (Bm)heart keeps (Fm)poundin' and the (E)wheels go 'round ('n') It's a (A)hard place for a (Bm)mortal (F#m)man And a (D)heartbroke (F#m(c#))pilgrim in the (Bm)shadowla-(F#m)nd (E) Yeah, when (A)I was younger I could (D)hold my (A)own (D)(A) My (F#m)right hand was (Bm)thunder and my (D)left was sto-(F#m)ne (E) Now I (A)ain't as handsome as I (D)was back (A)then (D)(A) So I'm (F#m)takin' my cha-(Bm)nces in the (D)shadow-(F#m)land (E) CHORUS... INSTRUM. BREAK: (A)... (F#m) (E(g#)) (A)... (Fm) (E) (((((((E)) (((((((E)) Been down a (A)thousand highways and they're (D)all th' sa-(A)me (D)(A) Another (F#m)empty pla-(Bm)ce where I can (D)hide my (F#m)shame (E) And there's a (A)heartache waitin' up a-(D)round the be-(A)nd (D)(A) For a (F#m)lonesome stra-(Bm)nger in the (D)shadowland(F#m - hold)... SLOW CHORUS TO END...
