Capo: 2 Tuning: E A D G B E
After looking through the other versions on the site, there were a couple of things missing that I wanted to submit, like a full intro tab and the complete chords for the chorus. [Intro] (C) (G) (Em) (D) (C) (G) (Em) (D) e|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| B|0h1-0-3---3-----|8-----7---7-----|0h1-0-3---3-----|8-----7---7-----| G|0---0-0-----0---|0-----0-----0---|0---0-0-----0---|0-----0-----0---| D|----------------|------0---------|----------------|------0---------| A|3---------------|7---------------|3---------------|7---------------| E|------3---------|----------------|------3---------|----------------| e|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| B|0h1-0-3---3-----|8--10-8-7--8--7-|0h1-0-3---3-----|8---8-7---7-----| G|0---0-0-----0---|0---------------|0---0-0-----0---|0---0-0-----0---| D|----------------|--------0-------|----------------|------0---------| A|3---------------|7---------------|3---------------|7---------------| E|------3---------|----------------|------3---------|----------------| [Verse] e|----------------|----------------| B|0h1-0-3---3-----|8---8-7---7-----| G|0---0-0-----0---|0---0-0---0-0---| D|----------------|------0---------| A|3---------------|7---------------| E|------3---------|----------------| This pattern is slightly different than the intro, most noticeably in the second measure. Here it is varied throughout the song: * - The note on the G string is often added during the verse, and at times the note on B string feels like it is there but is soft. @ - Again, the note on the G string is often there, but not always. [Verse] e|----------------|----------------| B|0h1-0-3---3-----|8---8-7---7-----| G|0---0-0-----0---|0---0-0---0-0---| D|----------------|------0---------| A|3---------------|7---------------| E|------3---------|----------------| You’ve got a fast car, I want a ticket to anywhere Maybe we make a deal, maybe together we can get somewhere Anyplace is better.
