G Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9 Dsus4/F#
Intro: G G Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9 Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4 G
(The last G is the first one where the lyrics start)
Theres also a keyboard playing and heres the tab for if you have a second
guitar and want to play it. It also plays at other various points in the
song but its exactly the same throughout.
G These G steps they re Em7 mind me of Dsus4 places I Cadd9 used to know,
The Em7 smell and the Dsus4 sand of Lake G Tahoe,
The Em7 restaurants and Dsus4 strip malls and Cadd9 chimney smoke,
G And these G bricks they re Em7 mind me of Dsus4 places I Cadd9 used to go,
With Em7 log cabins Dsus4 lining a G dirt road,
When Em7 my oblig Dsus4 ations were Cadd9 in the snow,
G Dsus4/F# I miss Em7 home and Dsus4 I miss Cadd9 you,
G When there's Dsus4/F# no one ar Em7 ound and Dsus4 nothing to Cadd9 do,
G And G I still re Em7 member those Dsus4 weekends when Cadd9 I was nine,
And Em7 four hours Dsus4 seemed like a G lifetime,
But Em7 look out the Dsus4 window son, Cadd9 you'll be fine,
G And G I traced the Em7 railroad through Dsus4 mountains and Cadd9 watched the trees,
The Em7 white powder Dsus4 resting on G their leaves,
As Em7 I pulled a Dsus4 blanket ov Cadd9 er my knees, Em7 Dsus4
For the solo, one guitar plays the verse chords with the same strumming
Guitar 1: G G Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9 Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4 G x2
Guitar 2:
The song picks right back into the chorus with a longer chord progression.
G Oh, Dsus4/F# I miss Em7 home and Dsus4 I miss Cadd9 you, Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4
G When there's Dsus4/F# no one ar Em7 ound and Dsus4 nothing to Cadd9 do, Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4
G And I Dsus4/F# know that you're Em7 keeping Dsus4 busy Cadd9 too, Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4
G But Dsus4/F# I miss Em7 home and Dsus4 I miss Cadd9 you. Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4
and end it on G and you should have played an awesome and simple song.
