Tuning: STANDARD
CAPO 1
This is the first song off of ?The Shade Of Poison Trees?. It?s a pretty simple song,
here you go enjoy! You can figure out the strum pattern. I?m using my finger to mute the
on purpose in order to make the sound match the cd recording.
THIS IS FOR THE RHYTHEM GUITAR MEANT TO BE PLAYED SOLO

Intro: G C9 Em7 A
[G]Step on the stage
The l[C9]ights the praise
The [Em7]curtain calls
And the [A]big parade
[G]You know that life [C9]all too well[Em7][A]
[G]The promise the pain
The [C9]valor the rage
[Em7]Hold up your hands
For the [A]bow and the wave
[G]You know his touch
A [C9]little too well[Em7][A]
[Em7]You throw yourself
[D/F#]Into their arms
[G]Mistresses have [C9]all the fun
[Em7]But no one's ever [D/F#]there to take you [G]home
[G]Box up your gloves and your
[C9]Down coats
[Em7]Bound for the sun and the
[A]West coast
[G]Where upper crust [C9]tragedies abound[Em7][A]
[G]A tip for the girl at the
[C9]Coat check
[Em7]The guy at the door and the
[A]Bar back
[G]They know your face
[C9]Oh so well[Em7][A]
[Em7]But movies never [D/F#]made you famous
[G]All your dreams got [C9]lost or traded
[Em7]And all you ever [D/F#]cared about got lost[G][C9]
[Em7]But you were sure[D/F#]ly still an actress
[G]Older men would find[C9] attractive
[Em7]And all you ever [D/F#]cared about got lost[G][C9]
[G] [C9]
Where there's [Em7]gold, there's a [A]gold digger
[G]You throw yourself
[C9]Into their arms
[Em7]Mistresses have [A]all the fun
[G]But no one's ever [C9]there to take you [Em7]home[A]
