SOL RE
You've got your big girls

One step and tomorrow comes
Two steps and she's off with someone
Three steps and it's all you know
You'll be home, she'll be gone
So what are you gonna do about me?
I'll be there when you have no one else
Spotted the ocean in the south's holy land
I'll be there, be your friend

Hold on strong, don't let go
There'll never be no one to take your place
So don't you wanna reach out and take my hand?

HOLD MY HAND
With a little love and some tenderness

With a little peace, and some harmony
We'll take the world together, we'll take them by the hand
FA# MI SI
Cause, I got a hand for you, oh
Cause, I wanna run with you
Yesterday, I saw you standing there
Your head was heavy, your eyes were red, no comb had touched your hair
I said "Get up, and let me see you smile
We'll take a walk together, walk the road a while"
Cause, I got a hand for you - I got a hand for you
I wanna run with you - won't you let me run with you
SI MI FA#
Hold my hand - want you to hold my hand
SI MI FA#Hold my hand - I'll take you to a place where you can be
Hold my hand - anything you wanna be, because
MII wanna love you the best that, the best that I can
See I was wasted, and I was wasting time
Till I thought about your problems, I thought about your crimes
Then I stood up, and then I screamed aloud
"Don't wanna be part of your problems, don't wanna be part of your crowd, no"
Cause, I gotta hand for you - I got a hand for you
I wanna run with you - won't you let me run with you
Hold my hand - want you to hold my hand
Hold my hand - I will take you to the promised land
Hold my hand - Maybe we can't change the world but,
I wanna love you, the best that, the best that I can
Solo: |Bsus2 E | x4
FA# MI SI x2
Hold my hand - want you to hold my hand
Hold my hand - I'll take you to a place where you can be
Hold my hand - anything you wanna be cause
I, no lo lo, oh ho (!?)

Hold my hand - I will take you to the promised land
Hold my hand - Maybe we can't change the world but,
I wanna love you, the best that, the best that I can

LET HER CRY
SOL RE
She sits alone by a lamppost
C (or Csus9) G
Trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind
She says Dad's the one I love the most
But Stipe's not far behind
She never let's me in
Only tells me where she's been
When she's had too much to drink
I say that I don't care
I just run my hands through her dark hair
Then I pray to God you gotta help me fly away
And just...
DO
Let her cry
If the tears fall down like rain
DOLet her sing
MIm SOL REIf it eases all her pain
Let her go
SOLLet her walk right out on me
REAnd if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be, let her be
This morning I woke up alone
Found a note standing by the phone
Saying, "Baby, maybe I'll be back someday"
I wanted to look for you
You walked in I didn't know just what I should do
So I sat back down and had a beer and felt sorry for myself
Saying...
(chorus)
(solo - 8 bars over verse)
Last night I tried to leave
Cried so much I could not believe
She was the same girl I fell in love with long ago
She went in the back to get high
And I sat down on my couch and cried
Yelling "Oh mama, please help me
Won't you hold my hand"
And...
(chorus) x 2
ONLY WANNA BE WITH YOU
NB Capo 2nd fret
Intro MI LAadd6 MI LAadd6 MI LAadd6 SIsus4
MI LAadd6 MI LAadd6
You and me, we come from different worlds
MI LAadd6 MI LAadd6You like to laugh at me when I look at other girls
Sometimes you're crazy and you wonder why
I'm such a baby, cause the dolphins make me cry
Well there's nothing I can do
MI LAadd6 MI LAadd6I've been looking for a girl like you *
You look at me, you got nothing left to say
I'm gonna pout at you until I get my way
I won't dance, you won't sing
I just want to love you, but you want to wear my ring
But there's nothing I can do
I only wanna be with you *
You can call me a fool
E etc
I only wanna be with you
Put on a little Dylan** sitting on a fence
I say that line has made you ask me what it meant by it
Said I shot a man named Grey, took his wife to Italy
She inherited a million bucks and when she died it came to me
I can't help it if I'm lucky, I only wanna be with you *
Ain't Bobby so cool, I only wanna be with you
Solo: (Same chords as verse)
Well I'm tangled up in blue, I only wanna be with you *
You can call me a fool, I only wanna be with you
Sometimes I wonder if it'll ever end
you get so mad at me when I go out with my friends
Sometimes you're crazy and you wonder why
I'm such a baby, yeah, the dolphins make me cry
But there's nothing I can do - I only wanna be with you *
You can call me a fool, I only wanna be with you *
LA SIsusYeah I'm tangled up in blue, I only wanna be with you *

Chords: E-022100 Aadd6-x04200 Bsus-x24400 F#m7sus-244200 A-x02220
NB: Note that the bass guitar treats the Aadd6 chords as B
Dylan as in Bob whose borrowed line from Idiot Wind appears in this
song. They credit Bob in the liner notes for the first album Kootchypop.
They also refer to Tangled up in Blue from the same album. Curiously enough,
they also are probably reffering to Dillon Fence a band from the same area,
which has had some regional success. And you thought you were just getting
a CRD file
;-) -sjv
There's a ton of guitars on this song (maybe a mandolin too) and it's
very difficult to audibly separate them. Just strum along. However, there is
a fill used at the points of the song marked with an asterisk *:

This is doubled an octave up - you can do this on one guitar with an octave
pedal or a pitch shifter set an octave up.
This is the solo. Note that for the first few bars, since it is played
close
to the capo, I've given fret positions relative to the capo.

RUNNING FROM AN ANGEL
Note: This song is capo'd at the second fret. Chords are relative to the
capo, single notes are at their true fret positions. It also sounds good to
play the D chords by plucking the D string and then playing the chord.
(intro) RE SIm RE SIm LA RE SIm RE LA RE x3
(First time just riff - see tab,
second time acoustic enters,
third time w/band)
Don't look a gift horse in the mouth
RE SIm RE LA REDon't try and tell me what they're talking about, oh
Those things you're dealing with, you're living a lie
Everytime I see you it makes me wanna cry
(intro riff)
The times we laughed and talked, seems like yesterday
Then you let the white horse come and take you away
They came to get you it was coal black
The wheels were in motion, there was no turning back

NB This is doubled an octave above by violin. You can copy this with an
octave pedal (as in Only Wanna Be With You) if you have one.
During the verses, the electric just strums the chords, but plays the last
bar of the intro riff over the D A D bar -"what they're talking about"
Solo:
Play this over the D chords in the solo- (just strum for the other chords)

I'M GOIN' HOME
Intro: |E |G#m |F#m |E | x3 (Band in 2nd time)
MI SOL#m
Mama please don't go
Won't you stay for one more day
I've been your boy for so long now
There's so much I, I still have to say
The sky ripped open and I held my heart in my hand
Like a soldier on his very last day
Cried myself to sleep that night
And I listened as I heard the angels sing, Sha la la
Sha la la la, sha la la la, I'm goin home
Sha la la la, la la la la, I'm goin home
Something inside of me makes me scream
How could God take you from a little boy?
He'll be all right he's by my side
He's not a little boy, he's my pride and joy, Sha la la la
Sha la la la, sha la la la, I'm goin home
Sha la la la, la la la la, I'm goin home
Solo: (Same chords as half a verse)
Summer on the radio }
When the phone rang, and it was Jeannette }- Without guitars
Saying, "Boy, we got to let her go" }
I beg, "No, no not yet" }
You left six of us to fend for ourselves
Guess it's just part of someone's master plan
We'll see you left cause your my best friend
You were lighter then and I smiled when the angels sang sha la la la

NB: Although I think the chord formations shown above are those used on the
recording, if you are playing this by yourself you can make the chorus
sound really big by using B-799800 D-x50770. :-)

DROWNING
(intro) SOL FAdd9 x8
Trouble with the world is we're too busy to think about it, all right
Why is there a rebel flag hanging from the state house walls?
Tired of hearin' this shit about heritage not hate
Time to make the world a better place
Why must we hate one another?
Well no matter what we gotta live together
Just that you don't look like me, tell me what do you see
When we pass on the street what do you wanna see?
LAm-C-Am-G-Am-C-D
Peace coming is all I gotta say
Wanna turn and run away
They're just telling you how they see it
Right or wrong they don't care, you wish that they would quit
DO FA SOL FA
Drowning in a sea of tears
Hatred trying to hide your fears
Living only for yourself
Hating everybody else
Cause they don't look like you
Nancy singing it's a hard life wherever you go
About some fat racist living in Chicago
Trying to teach his kids to hate everyone
Well tell me why is that something you wanna teach your son?
LAm-C-Am-G-Am-C-D
Why must we hate one another?
When the people in the church, they tell me you're my brother
You don't walk like a redneck, you don't talk like redneck
Go back to Africa, I just don't understand
(chorus)
(solo): |G Fadd9| x8
(Drowning) I'm trying to be someone that he could look up to, but
(Hatred) When I walk down the street, tell me what do you see?
I'm a man, I'm a man, I'm a man
(Living) No I'm not like you
Why do you hate me so?
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
(Hating) Hating everybody else cause they don't look like you
There are two rhythm guitars here. A clean electric (mixed left) strums
chords throughout the song. Note that Fadd9 is played as 1x3213 (playing the
bass string with your thumb). An acoustic (mixed right) is played with a capo
on the fifth fret - to convert the chords:
G becomes D, Fadd9 => Cadd9 (x32033), Am => Em, C => G, F => C, D => A
There are also two lead guitars in this song, which play the solo and the
links between the verses. They play power chords for the Am-C... things.
If you only have one lead guitarist in your band, you can loosely approximate
both guitar parts with a pitch shifter by playing the right channel guitar
(the one on top) with pitch shifter set to a perfect 4th (5 frets) above- use
your ears and change the bits which end up sounding particularly daft.

At this point an acoustic guitar enters strumming the chords. From this
point on, one of the electrics plays the riff during the verses, the part
shown above during the bridges, and strums the chords during the choruses
("Time is wasting..") and solo. The second electric plays the occasional
power chord during verses and bridges and strums along to the choruses.
It also takes the solo:

At the end of the last chorus, the second guitar drops out; the acoustic
and the first electric play the main riff in unison to the end, finishing
with an open D chord.
LOOK AWAY
(riff-see tab)
Saw her standing there
Tears upon her cheeks told me something was wrong
I asked her what it was
She looked away and said, "My daddy's home"
(riff)
I knew what that meant
It meant that I can never see you again
I had seen this once before
I didn't wanna deal with it anymore
SOL MIm
"Look away", she said
RE RE/FA# SOLAs she turned a-way from me
And I tried to hold her
RE RE/FA# SOLCouldn't let her be
MIm RE RE/FA#Let her be, let her be
(riff)
I said "Why,
Why do you make me cry"
She said, "I love you so
Look away, I don't wanna know"
(riff)
I saw her standing there
Tears upon her cheek told me something's wrong
I said, "What baby"
She looked away and said, "My daddy's home"
"Look away", she said
As she turned away
My God, I know I loved her, couldn't let her be
Let her be, let her be
Look away
Look away
She said, "I love you so
Look away"

NOT EVEN THE TREES
Intro REsus2 LA/RE x2
Alone, as I sit and watch the trees
REsus2 LA/REWon't you tell me if I scream, will they bend down and listen to me
SIm LAAnd it makes me wonder if I'll know the words when you come
Or will you laugh at me or will I run?
Little boy says to me "Where you goin' now, son?"
I said "I don't know where I'm goin' boy
I only know where I'm from."
And it makes me wonder if the stars shine when my eyes close
SOL REOr does my brother's heart cry, oh I don't know
SOL RE
I'm a stranger in my home
Now that everybody's gone
SOL SIm SIm7Someone please talk to me cause I feel you cry
LA SOLAnd you're sitting with him and I know I'll never see you again
Lying down in Charleston underneath the Carolina sky
You see I'm tired of feeling this pain
I'm tired of livin' my own little lie
And it makes me wonder when I see you in my dreams
Does it mean anything, are you trying to talk to me?
I'm a stranger in my home
Tell me, are you feeling alone?
Someone tell me what to do,
'Cause I'm feeling strong
And I wonder how you feel
Does he realize, my pain is for real
I see you in my dreams
LAsus LA7 SIm SIm7and I wonder if you're looking down at me and smiling right now
LA SOL SImOh yeah I wanna know if it's true, when he looks at me
Won't ya tell me, does he realize,
LA7he came down here, and he took you to soon, oh
And now my days are short and my nights are long
I lay down out with memories of you, that keep me going on, going on
Now I know that it makes me wonder, as I sit and stare,
Will I see your face again - tell me, do you care?
I'm a stranger in my home
Livin' life on my own
Right now I just can't see
'Cause I'm feeling weak
And my soul begins to bleed
And no one's listening to me
Not even the trees

This is played over the first half of the verses, twice before each verse,
and four times at the end of the song.
The following is played over the second half of the first verse:
|-----2------2----|-----0------0----|-3----
|-------3------3--|-------2------2--|-3----

|----------4------|----------2------|-0----

At the end of the other verses, going into the chorus, rather than holding
the G chord, play the following:
+ + + + + + + + + + + +|-----3------3----|-------------------------|-3-------3-3-3-3-----3---|
|-------3---3--3--|-3-------3-3-3-3---3-----|-3-------3-3-3-3-----3---|

Note that after the first verse, there are three guitars on the recording
doing their own thing - but since there isn't really anything fancy enough
to justify wasting a lot of space tabbing them all out, the chord
formations shown above make a reasonable arrangement for one guitar.
However, do note that over the verse riff, one of the other guitars
(an acoustic) uses these chords: Dsus2-xx0235 A/D-xx0225
GOODBYE
Note: This is the piano part, transcribed for guitar - it sounds
really cool to arpeggiate the chords some... :)
Intro: G---Em---C-Bm-Am---
SOL MIm
Tomorrow used to be a day away
DO SIm LAmNow love is gone and you're into someone far away
I never thought the day would come
When I would see his hand not mine
Holding on to yours because I could not
Find the time
SOL LAm
And now I can't deny
SOL LAmNothing lasts forever
But I don't wanna leave and see the teardrops in your eyes
DO RE SOL-C SOL/SI-C-GI don't wanna live to see the day we say goodbye
Now there comes another fallen life
I come alone
Sitting at a bar with Chris that I can't leave
'Cause my house ain't no home
I just wanna touch you girl
I wanna feel you close to me
Without your love I would give up now
And walk away so easily
So maybe while we're gone
We'll figure out together
That even with the pain there's a remedy
We'll be alright
I don't wanna live to see the day we say goodbye
RE DO SOL
When I first met you I couldn't love anyone
MIm LABut you stole my dreams and you made me see that
I can walk into the sun and I could still be me
And now I can't deny
Nothing lasts forever
DO RE SIm LAmBut I don't wanna leave and see the teardrops in your eyes
So maybe while we're gone
Lets figure out together
That even with the pain there's a remedy, oh, and
We'll be alright
I don't wanna live to see the day we say goodbye
SOL DOWe say goodbye
SOL DOOh, goodbye
Goodbye
Motherless Child

Trying to find a thought that's
..escaped her mind
She says Dad's the one I love the
..most
But Stipe's not far behind
She never let's me in
Only tells me where she's been
When she's had too much to drink
I say that I don't care
I just run my hands through her
..dark hair
Then I pray to God you gotta help
..me fly away
And just...
DO
Let her cry
SOLIf the tears fall down like
..rain
DOLet her sing
If it eases all her pain
DOLet her go
SOLLet her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up
..tomorrow
Let her be, let her be
This morning I woke up alone
Found a note standing by the phone
Saying, "Baby, maybe I'll be back
..someday"
I wanted to look for you
You walked in I didn't know just
..what I should do
So I sat back down and had a beer
..and felt sorry for myself
Saying...
(chorus)
(solo - 8 bars over verse)
Last night I tried to leave
Cried so much I could not believe
She was the same girl I fell in
..love with long ago
She went in the back to get high
And I sat down on my couch and
..cried
Yelling "Oh mama, please help me
Won't you hold my hand"
And...

..treats the Aadd6 chords as B
Dylan as in Bob whose borrowed

song. They credit Bob in the liner
..notes for the first album
..Kootchypop.
They also refer to Tangled up in

..Curiously enough,
they also are probably reffering

NB: Although I think the chord
..formations shown above are those
..used on the
recording, if you are playing this
..by yourself you can make the
..chorus
sound really big by using B-799800
.. D-x50770. :-)

DROWNING
(intro) SOL FAdd9 x8
Trouble with the world is we're
SOL FAdd9..too busy to think about it, all
..right
Why is there a rebel flag hanging
..from the state house walls?
Tired of hearin' this shit about
..heritage not hate
Time to make the world a better
..place
Why must we hate one another?
Well no matter what we gotta live
..together
Just that you don't look like me,
..tell me what do you see
When we pass on the street what do
..you wanna see?
LAm-C-Am-G-Am-C-D
Peace coming is all I gotta say
Wanna turn and run away
They're just telling you how they
..see it
Right or wrong they don't care,
..you wish that they would quit
LAm-C-Am-G-Am-F-G
DO FA SOL FA
Drowning in a sea of tears
Hatred trying to hide your
..fears
Living only for yourself
Hating everybody else
Cause they don't look like you
Nancy singing it's a hard life
..wherever you go
About some fat racist living in
..Chicago
Trying to teach his kids to hate
..everyone
Well tell me why is that something
..you wanna teach your son?
LAm-C-Am-G-Am-C-D
Why must we hate one another?
When the people in the church,
..they tell me you're my brother
You don't walk like a redneck, you
..don't talk like redneck
Go back to Africa, I just don't
..understand
(solo): |G Fadd9| x8
(C-F-G-F)
(Drowning) I'm trying to be
..someone that he could look up
..to, but
(Hatred) When I walk down the
..street, tell me what do you see?
I'm a man, I'm a man,
..I'm a man
(Living) No I'm not like you
Why do you hate me so?
I don't know, I don't
..know, I don't know
(Hating) Hating everybody else
..cause they don't look like you
There are two rhythm guitars here.
..A clean electric (mixed left)
..strums
chords throughout the song. Note
..that Fadd9 is played as 1x3213
..(playing the
bass string with your thumb). An
..acoustic (mixed right) is played
..with a capo
on the fifth fret - to convert the
..chords:
G becomes D, Fadd9 => Cadd9
..(x32033), Am => Em, C => G, F =>
..C, D => A
There are also two lead guitars in
..this song, which play the solo
..and the
links between the verses. They
..play power chords for the
..Am-C... things.
If you only have one lead
..guitarist in your band, you can
..loosely approximate
both guitar parts with a pitch
..shifter by playing the right
..channel guitar
(the one on top) with pitch
..shifter set to a perfect 4th (5
..frets) above- use
your ears and change the bits
..which end up sounding
..particularly daft.

(intro) RE MIm x4
RE MIm RE MIm RE MIm RE MIm

Chidren killing in the streets
Dying for the color of a rag

Like a tree growing all alone
The wind just stripped me bare,
..stripped me bare
Time__, the past has come and

The future's far away
But now only lasts for one second,
..one second
Can you teach me about tommorow
And all the pain and sorrow,

At this point an acoustic guitar
..enters strumming the chords.
..From this
point on, one of the electrics
..plays the riff during the
..verses, the part
shown above during the bridges,
..and strums the chords during the
..choruses
("Time is wasting..") and solo.
..The second electric plays the
..occasional
power chord during verses and
..bridges and strums along to the
..choruses.
It also takes the solo:

At the end of the last chorus, the
..second guitar drops out; the
..acoustic
and the first electric play the
..main riff in unison to the end,
..finishing
with an open D chord.
LOOK AWAY
(riff-see tab)
Saw her standing there
Tears upon her cheeks told me
..something was wrong
I asked her what it was
She looked away and said, "My
..daddy's home"
(riff)
I knew what that meant
It meant that I can never see you
..again
I had seen this once before
I didn't wanna deal with it
..anymore
SOL MIm
"Look away", she said
As she turned a-way from me
MImAnd I tried to hold her
RE RE/FA# SOLCouldn't let her be
Let her be, let her be
I said "Why,
Why do you make me cry"
She said, "I love you so
Look away, I don't wanna know"
I saw her standing there
Tears upon her cheek told me
..something's wrong
I said, "What baby"
She looked away and said, "My
..daddy's home"
"Look away", she said
As she turned away
My God, I know I loved her,
..couldn't let her be
Let her be, let her be
(riff)
Look away
Look away
She said, "I love you so
Look away"

NOT EVEN THE TREES
Intro REsus2 LA/RE x2
Alone, as I sit and watch the
..trees
Won't you tell me if I scream,
LA/RE..will they bend down and listen
..to me
SImAnd it makes me wonder if I'll
LA..know the words when you come
Or will you laugh at me or will I
..run?
Little boy says to me "Where you
..goin' now, son?"
I said "I don't know where I'm
..goin' boy
I only know where I'm from."
And it makes me wonder if the
..stars shine when my eyes close
SOLOr does my brother's heart cry, oh
RE..I don't know
SOL RE
I'm a stranger in my home
Now that everybody's gone
SOLSomeone please talk to me
SIm SIm7..cause I feel you cry
And you're sitting with him
SOL..and I know I'll never see you
..again
Lying down in Charleston
..underneath the Carolina sky
You see I'm tired of feeling this
..pain
I'm tired of livin' my own little
..lie
And it makes me wonder when I see
..you in my dreams
Does it mean anything, are you
..trying to talk to me?
I'm a stranger in my home
Tell me, are you feeling alone?
Someone tell me what to do,
'Cause I'm feeling strong
And I wonder how you feel
Does he realize, my pain is for
..real
I see you in my dreams
LAsusand I wonder if you're looking
LA7 SIm..down at me and smiling right now
LA SOL
Oh yeah I wanna know if it's true,
SIm..when he looks at me
Won't ya tell me, does he realize,
LA7he came down here, and he took you
..to soon, oh
And now my days are short and my
..nights are long
I lay down out with memories of
..you, that keep me going on,
..going on
Now I know that it makes me
..wonder, as I sit and stare,
Will I see your face again - tell
..me, do you care?
I'm a stranger in my home
Livin' life on my own
Right now I just can't see
'Cause I'm feeling weak
And my soul begins to bleed
And no one's listening to me
Not even the trees

Note that after the first verse,
..there are three guitars on the
..recording
doing their own thing - but since
..there isn't really anything
..fancy enough
to justify wasting a lot of space
..tabbing them all out, the chord
formations shown above make a
..reasonable arrangement for one
..guitar.
However, do note that over the
..verse riff, one of the other
..guitars
(an acoustic) uses these chords:
..Dsus2-xx0235 A/D-xx0225
GOODBYE
Note: This is the piano part,
..transcribed for guitar - it
..sounds
really cool to arpeggiate the
..chords some... :)
Intro: G---Em---C-Bm-Am---
SOL MIm
Tomorrow used to be a day away
Now love is gone and you're into
LAm..someone far away
I never thought the day would come
When I would see his hand not mine
Holding on to yours because I
..could not
Find the time
SOL LAm
And now I can't deny
Nothing lasts forever
DOBut I don't wanna leave and
RE MIm LA..see the teardrops in your eyes
I don't wanna live to see the
RE SOL-C SOL/SI-C-G..day we say goodbye
Now there comes another fallen
..life
I come alone
Sitting at a bar with Chris that I
..can't leave
'Cause my house ain't no home
I just wanna touch you girl
I wanna feel you close to me
Without your love I would give up
..now
And walk away so easily
So maybe while we're gone
We'll figure out together
That even with the pain
..there's a remedy
We'll be alright
I don't wanna live to see the
..day we say goodbye
RE DO
When I first met you I couldn't
..love anyone
MIm LABut you stole my dreams and you
..made me see that
REI can walk into the sun and I
DO..could still be me
And now I can't deny
Nothing lasts forever
But I don't wanna leave and
RE SIm LAm..see the teardrops in your eyes
So maybe while we're gone
Lets figure out together
That even with the pain
..there's a remedy, oh, and
We'll be alright
DOI don't wanna live to see the
..day we say goodbye
SOL DOWe say goodbye
SOL DOOh, goodbye
Goodbye
Motherless Child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless
..child
Sometimes I feel like a mother, a
..motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless
..child
A long, long way from my home...
