Tuning: Standard

Really easy and great fun song to play. Chords are:

C F E
e|-0-1-0|
B|-1-1-0|
G|-0-2-1|
D|-2-3-2|
A|-3-0-2|
E|-0-0-0|

Each time you play the C chord, take your middle finger
off the D string and and strum the chord with that string
open, then hammer it on on the next strum, followed by
three more fast strums. Like this:

D = Down Strum
U = Up Strum

D D U D U
e|-0--0--0-0-0|
B|-1--1--1-1-1|
G|-0--0--0-0-0|
D|-0--2--2-2-2|
A|-3--3--3-3-3|
E|-0--0--0-0-0|

C F
Oh Christine your love, I saw it drinking at the bar just the other night
C
Under ceiling of light. Old time marigolds, I saw you winking at the
F C
stars in the warring night, if I saw you right?
E F C E F C
You were galloping down the road, past my home to be sure
E F C E F C
If I take my time, will I make it back home?


The rest of the verses carry on the same pattern.


Oh blight life you're parable, I saw you smoking in the bar just
the other night, if I saw you right?
Oh matrimonial, I saw you drinking at the bar just the other day
what's that I heard you say?

You were galloping down the road, past my home to be sure
If I changed my life, over the flames of the road.

Oh Christine our love, I saw it drinking at my home just the other
night, under a ceiling of right
And old matrimonial, I saw you drinking in the photos on my wall
Stoned as a kite.

You came bearing gifts to the ghosts, past my home to be sure
Past the sheet on the street, the corner of Blanchard and Bell.
