Tuning: Standard
Really easy and great fun song to play. Chords are:
e|-[C]0-[F]1-[E]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]Oh Christine your love, I saw it drinking at the bar just the other ni[F]ght
Under ceiling of li[C]ght. Old time marigolds, I saw you winking at the
stars in the warring ni[F]ght, if I saw you ri[C]ght?
You were ga[E]lloping d[F]own the r[C]oad, [E]past my [F]home to be s[C]ure
[E]If I t[F]ake my t[C]ime, [E]will I [F]make it back [C]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.
