TITLE: BARSTOOL BLUES
ALBUM: ZUMA
SUBMITTED BY: Steve Nicholson
NOTE:
Kevin Goodsell (GOODSELK@bus.svhs.cache.k12.ut.us) suggested this
should be played with a capo at fret 2.
Then you should play: E as a D-shape, B as a A, A as a G, F#m7 as
a Em7. I think both versions sound ok, so you'll have to decide
for yourself.
INTRO:
E (x4)
B F#m7 E
I could hold on to just one thought for long enough to know
B F#m7 E
Why my mind is moving so fast and the conversation is slow
A E
Burn off all the fog and let the sun through to the snow
B A E
Let me see your face again before I have to go.
I have seen you in the movies and in those magazines at night
I saw you on the barstool when you held that glass so tight
And I saw you in my nightmares, but I'll see you in my dreams
And I might live a thousand years before I know what that means
INSTRUMENTAL:
B - F#m7 E -
Once there was a friend of mine who died a thousand deaths
His life was filled with parasites and countless idle threats
He trusted in a woman and on her he made his bets
Once there was a friend of mine who died a thousand deaths
INSTRUMENTAL:
A - - E B - A E (x8)
