Chords

For his run up riff on the E chord check out the tab for the intro to Banded Clovis. Otherwise, watch the video above to get a feel for the song. The Esus4 is just a hammer on and off from the E chord. Notice that he likes to hammer on the B on the A string while playing the open E chord. Notice also that when he plays the B7 he's switching between the B and the F# in the base. [Intro] E [Verse 1]
                 E   Esus4  E
I was out on a drunk

                       B7
I was wild enough to shoot at
Too high to hit
             E  Esus4  E
Too low to try
Try as I may
             B7
Have good intentions
Natural-born heathens
                    E  Esus4 E
Love backslider's wine
[Verse 2]
                E  Esus4  E
Brothers and sisters

               B7
That would be bourbon
That'd be 'bout the furthest
               E  Esus4  E
Thing that I need
All my born days
                     B7
I ain't never been decent
At hidin' the demons
                E  Esus4  E7
I'm haulin' in me
[Chorus]
      A
Too often I reach

                                E               A
For things I know keep me for bein' all that I can

        B7
Like a man
[Interlude] E B7 E E Esus4 E [Verse 3]
                      E  Esus4  E
There are things I recall

                            B7
There are things that are hazy
There are things that just shame me
                           E  Esus4  E
There are things I can't change
Try as I might
                 B7
Too have good intentions
Natural-born heathens
                   E  Esus4  E7
Love backslidin' ways
[Chorus]
              A
Too often I reach

                                E               A
For things I know keep me for being all that I can

        B7
Like a man
