CLINT BLACK -- STATE OF MIND
------------------------------
From the album: "No Time To Kill," (BMG Music, 1993)
Written by Clint Black (ASCAP, 1993)
NOTES: Each letter in the intro and the two verses (ie. the indented
portions) represents 1 measure (4 beats). Each letter in the chorus/bridge
represents only half a measure (2 beats). On the CD there is a long
harmonica intro and fiddle outro which are not transcribed.
INTRO: D A G A
[D]Got a big leather suitcase,[A] all I own's inside.
[G]Seems I been walkin' for days[G], can't even bum a ride.
[D]Try steppin' to a tune,[A] with the rhythm of a walking man;
[G]Mind drifts like a big balloon, [G]out of my situation at hand.
[D]Ain't it funny how a [A]melody,[G] can bring back a [A]memory?
[D] [A] [G] [A][D][A]
[G]Take[A] you to another place in time, completely change your state of mind.
[D]Walkin' down a lonely highway,[A] not feelin' alone;
[G]Thinkin' back when things went my way[G], and not the road I'm on.
[D]Well, I've been down a time or two,[A] but it never lasts long;
[G]I can always make it through,[G] on a wing and a prayer and a song.
[D]Ain't it funny how a [A]melody,[G] can bring back a [A]memory?
D A G A D D(stop)
Take you to another place in time, completely change your state of mind.
[D]It can make a [A]right from a wrong,[G] it can make you [A]fall in love.
[D]It can get you [A]singin' along, chase the [G]clouds away and make the [A]sun shine
a[D]bove. A [A]melody,[G] can bring back a [A]memory.
[D]Take you to another [A]place in time,[G] completely [A]change your state of
[D]mind. A [A]melody,[G] can bring back a [A]memory.
[D]Take you to another [A]place in time,[G] completely [A]change your state of [D]mind.
