Subject: TAB: Concrete Blonde


for this one, I put alot of emphasis on the bass notes
I havent spent years on it or anything but this is
how I think it might go:

CARRY ME AWAY- Concrete Blonde

  Am (x02210@1)  Em (022000@1)      C (x32010@1)      G (320003@1)    AmToday (x02210@1)I went and bought myself a bottle
                 G (320003@1)                AmLike (x02210@1)we used to do, reminded me of you.

  Am (x02210@1)   Em (022000@1)   C (x32010@1)      G (320003@1)     AmToday (x02210@1)I saw a train roll by the river
                  G (320003@1)                 AmBlowing (x02210@1)off its steam, reminded me of me

  G (320003@1)                                  AmThat's (x02210@1)when I threw the bottle in the river,
  G (320003@1)                                  Am (x02210@1)  G (320003@1) C (x32010@1) EmThat's (022000@1)when I started running for the train.

         Am (x02210@1)    Em (022000@1)     C (x32010@1)    G (320003@1)   AmThere's (x02210@1)nothing that you need I cant deliver
           G (320003@1)            AmCarry (x02210@1)me away, carry me away

            Am (x02210@1)     Em (022000@1)     C (x32010@1)    GThink (320003@1)it's seven or nine California time
        Am (x02210@1)                                                      GHe (320003@1)who said he(it) was a small one(world) was either a liar or a fool,

'cos its not true.

          Am (x02210@1)       Em (022000@1)        C (x32010@1)     GAnd (320003@1)the promises we make are as easy to break
        AmAs (x02210@1)the plastic people on a wedding cake
         G (320003@1)           AmSo (x02210@1)says you, to know I do.

For the next part, play G and Am like this:
(I saw him do it this way in concert)
