PORT OF SOULS - Gun Club
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From the album 'Mother Juno'

Tuning: Standard

Port of Souls is one of my favourite 'late era' Gun Club songs. It's pretty 
straightforward too! It's easiest to play all the rhythm guitar using a standard e-
major shape barre-chord. 
I've lifted the lyrics from Jeffrey-Lee's autobiography 'Go Tell the Mountain'.


Intro:

A (x02220@1)         E (022100@1)  G (320003@1)                 E (022100@1) Run Molly run,   your hills are on fire

A (x02220@1)             E (022100@1)         G (320003@1)                E (022100@1) Why don't you go downtown, and get it on the wire?

Bridge: BB, F#F#, G#G#

A (x02220@1)    E (022100@1)         G (320003@1)               E (022100@1) Now, easy street, can sure get you laid

A (x02220@1)              E (022100@1)              G (320003@1)          E (022100@1) Doesn't matter what you've done, and you get paid

EE, EE             E (022100@1)name="chord_x2444x@1">B C# (x43121@1)    In the Port of Souls

Lead break over chorus:

The above fits over these lines:

             EEE           AAA
Too much ocean, too much sea

             EEE                 C# (x43121@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A EIt (022100@1)is no wonder that you buried me

               B (x2444x@1)name="chord_x43121@1">C# A (x02220@1)name="chord_022100@1">E B (x2444x@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A (Hold 'A' into next verse)
But its alright

A (x02220@1)           E (022100@1)G (320003@1)             E (022100@1) Rose Connally   don't go in the field

A (x02220@1)                       E (022100@1)        G (320003@1)                 E (022100@1)You might find something underneath, underneath what is real

Bridge:  BB,  F#F#,  G#G#

A (x02220@1)                                              E (022100@1)              G (320003@1)    E (022100@1)Now stop pulling an eyelash, only you that I have

A (x02220@1)                 E (022100@1)   G (320003@1)                    E (022100@1)
 And it makes me so tired, and this could be the end

Repeat chorus

There's a bunch of feedback and stuff for half a verse, then 
Last half-verse:

A (x02220@1)                  E (022100@1)   G (320003@1)                E (022100@1)Now don't call John Henry, just kiss him goodbye

A (x02220@1)               E (022100@1)   G (320003@1)         E (022100@1)It don't matter anyway, so simply goodbye

Repeat chorus

Second part of chorus repeats several times with different lyrics:

1
I didn't get lonely dear, 
I didn't have a chance to see, but its alright

2
You don't have to say goodbye
No! no
But its alright

And different lead breaks:

b = bend

Last time round he's just throttling the life out of the b string on the 16th fret 
with lots of bend!

There we are then! Enjoy!
