Chords

The first tab for this is close but a few parts are a little off. So I thought I'd and do my own version. I haven't bothered to include any tab for the second electric guitar. Mainly cause I'm and no one asked for it :) The acoustic guitar in the song is capoed at the 2nd fret, as in the earlier tab.

Baby doll

Do you believe they'll catch you when you fall?

         Am                              D      C D
And when morning comes, the sun is gonna shine

G
Don't forget

          D/F#                 Em
Your minor keys, your half-lit cigarette

            Am                                      D     C D
'Cause when morning comes, God knows that you'll be mine
[Pre-Chorus 1]
            G      B7
So let me in

             Em         D           C
I'm ready to beg and to sing for my sins

                Em        D           C
Not leave it to chance, a sweet coincidence

                 A
Well that's just crazy

And you know it's true
[Chorus 1]

Well they said you was long gone

Bm                  C
I just laughed and said

         G            C       D
"All right, bring her home tonight"

      G             D/F#        Em
And I heard you was graciously put on

Bm                   C
I just laughed and said

           G        C      D      (D)   C D
"Good night, guess it's alright"
[Verse 2]
G
Baby doll

                    D/F#       Em
The men who hang like flowers in your hall

           Am                      D      C D
Are asking when your love is gonna show

G
And who knows why

                  D/F#       Em
The love you need will always pass you by?

                  Am                     
Well I heard it's true

                    D      C D
Your love is gonna grow
[Pre-Chorus 2]
          G      B7        
So let me know

            Em         D           C
'Cause I can stay, or honey I can go

               Em        D           C
Just to wherever you tell me so

                    A
I'll find my place there

               D Dsus4  C D
And there I'll stay
[Chorus 2]
          G     D/F#        Em
Well they said you was burned out

Bm                  C
I just laughed and said

         G          C       D
"Come on, she's not burnt, she's just gone"

      G             D/F#        Em
And it took me too long 'til I found out

G              C      D      (D)   C D
Faces that you know the best, oh well I guess
[Chorus 3]
         G                D/F#         Em
And they laughed when you said you was leaving

Bm         C        G     C              D
Everybody knows you well, except for me, can't you tell?

         G                D/F#         Em
And you once from the wings of the late show

Bm            C        G       C       D
Roses by your feet all red, for me you said
[Outro] (Play verse chords to fade) Baby doll, baby doll, baby doll, etc. That's pretty much it. There's a nice electric lead part that plays throughout the song, does a little solo-ing at the end. As mentioned above, I haven't included it. But if interested I can probably tab it out. Send me an e-mail at [email protected]. enjoy just strumming along. This is a sweet little tune.
