Chords

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Robbie Email: [email protected] This is a pretty straight forward song to play. The other tab has got the chord progression completely wrong, as well as putting it in the wrong key. Main riff (arranged for single guitarist):

             Bm(1 bar) E (1 bar)   A (2 bars)
e|-----------2---------0-----------0---------|
B|-----------3---------0-----------2---------|
G|-----------4---------1-----------2---------|
D|-----------4---------2-----------2---------|
A|-------0-2-2---------2-4-2-0-2-4-0---------|
E|-0-0-2---------------0----------------|

N/C              Bm
It's a long dark road

E              A
That I call my home

(A)              Bm
It's a long dark road

E                   A
That I'm cursed to roam

      Bm                    E
These many nights I've been banished here

      A             Dmaj7 (xx0222)
My companion is the stars

       Bm             E
With a bed-roll and a blanket

             A               Dmaj7
And just the rocks to lay my bones

    Bm           E
One day from the darkness

          A               Dmaj7
I'll come rapping at your door

         Bm              E        A
And I'll never walk this road any more

Solo (I've tabbed it out in an easy-to-play format, but I suspect Richard Hawley plays it on fewer strings, and slides between a lot more of the notes):
