This is an awesome song which is great fun to play.
Saw Dave performing this song at the Revival Tour which was great
but figured out these chords on my own.
I'll give you the chords and I tried to figured out the intro
but for the solo you will have to care for yourselves if you want to do it
or I'll just add it lateron...
Tuning: standard
Chords used: A F#m D E
Intro:
I e ----0--0--0-----0-0-0-----0--
B -----------3-2-3------3-2----
IIe ----0--0--0-----0-0-0
B -----------3-2-3------3-2--2--3--5--3--2
Verse:
S[A]pring is rolling in I smell the sunlight on your skin
Want to get on outside let our hair back into the [F#m]wind?
I've been t[A]ired of hanging 'round, tired of all the news of decay
Getting tired of this town, and running out of reasons to[F#m] stay
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/d/dave_hause/melanin_crd.html )
Pre-Chorus:
Just pro[D]mise you[E]'ll stay mi[F#m]ne
Just pro[D]mise It'll [E]all work out f[A]ine
(Repeat intro II)
The [A]air is so cold this time of year, it's cold like a killer's sin
And the lonely old forced hot air dries out your [F#m]skin
And it g[A]ets me so down when the loneliness spreads to your eyes
Don't tell me it's fine, I know it's a [F#m]lie
Repeat pre-chorus
Intro II again
Verse:
If we tu[A]rn it up, the r[F#m]adio can sing us home
The sno[D]w is melting faster now that sun's making me feel s[E]toned
[A]Turn it up, c'mo[F#m]n baby sing along
Let's [D]loose these winter [E]blues an we'll stumble h[A]ome
Solo
Pre-Chorus:
Just pr[D]omise you'[E]ll stay m[F#m]ine
Oh, pro[D]mise it'll[E] all work out...
Chorus x 2
Ending:
We're gonna lo[D]ose these winter b[E]lues and we'll stumble [A]home
End with Intro I and II
That's it, I hope you like it. If you have any suggestions, feel free to contact me via email :-)
