Mary Chapin Carpenter – Rhythm Of The Blues (Guitar Tab)

(These chords with a capo on the third fret are the chords that Mary-Chapin Carpenter plays; The tablature is what John Jennings plays in C with a capo at the fifth fret.) [Intro] D A Em7 Em7 D A Em7 Em7 [Verse 1] D A Em7 I can hear the rain come down, I can listen with my heart D A Em7 I can see with both eyes closed in the dark G D G Sleep will come in just a while but till it does I choose D Bm G To listen to the rain, it's the rhythm of the blues [Verse 2] D A Em7 I walk along these streets of home that once belonged to us D A Em7 And now baby I walk alone and I am lost G D G In the sound of my own footsteps on the avenues D Bm G I guess I'm only walking to rhythm of the blues [Bridge] F#m Bm G A F#m Bm G A I don't wanna hear another word spoken, I don't wanna see another tear shed F#m Bm G A C C G I can't seem to fix what's broken, like this record baby in my head [Interlude] D A Em7 Em7 D A Em7 Em7 G D G Lonely looks as bad on me as lonely looks on you D Bm G And still we keep on moving to the rhythm of the blues [Coda] D A Em7 I want a place to call my own, where you have never been D A Em7 I wanna look around and know you won't be coming back again G D G On some pretense paper-thin that I can see right through D Bm G You come and go baby, like the rhythm of the blues D Bm G You come and go baby, like the rhythm of the blues D Bm G You come and go baby, like the rhythm of the blues -------- (Note that the tab parts are written as if there is a capo at the fifth. fret, since this is how John Jennings plays the song.) [Intro] (This is played twice. The notes in parentheses are probably played by the other guitar.)
