Chords

I transcribed this from watching the video of him playing this live on SNL. This is identical to what he plays and in my opinion is easier than the other versions out there because it is all in the first position and makes for an easy transition from the intro/solo to chords. Enjoy jammin’ this great tune!

************************************ | / Slide up | h Hammer-on | \ Slide down ************************************ [Lyric] [Verse 1] Street lights along the highway Throwing shadows in the dark And the memories keep on turning To the rhythm of a broken heart [Chorus] You only need a roof when it’s raining You only need a fire when it’s cold You only need a drink when the whiskey Is the only thing you have left to hold Sun comes up and goes back down And falling feels like flying till you hit the ground Say the word and I’ll be there for you Baby, I will be your parachute Parachute [Verse 2] There’s a song that I remember I never learned to play And a lifetime of forgotten words I never got to say [Chorus] You only need a roof when it’s raining You only need a fire when it’s cold You only need a drink when the whiskey Is the only thing you have left to hold Sun comes up and goes back down And falling feels like flying till you hit the ground Say the word and I’ll be there for you Baby, I will be your parachute Parachute [Bridge] If you think you’re going down Just know I will be around [Chorus] You only need a roof when it’s raining You only need a fire when it’s cold You only need a drink when the whiskey Is the only thing you have left to hold Sun comes up and goes back down And falling feels like flying till you hit the ground Say the word and I’ll be there for you Baby, I will be your Baby, I will be your parachute Parachute
