Do try to find the original Ian and Sylvia version (available on a Vanguard various-artists comp, among other places) - you'll be amazed at how many liberties We Five took with the chord changes, melody, and even lyrics. --AWR "You Were On My Mind" (Sylvia Fricker) Intro (bass and drums only until final chord): E A E A E A E [N.C.] / / / / / / / / / / / / / Verse 1 [chords mostly implied by bass; note that there are some 12-string parts on the "whoa-oh"s that are present only on the mono mixdown]: E When I woke up this morning A B E A B You were on my mind A G#m F#m B And you were on my mind E Amaj7 I got troubles, whoa-oh E Amaj7 I got worries, whoa-oh E C#m A B I got wounds to bind Verse 2: E [xx6450] So I went to the corner Just to ease my pains Yeah, just to ease my pains I got troubles, whoa-oh I got worries, whoa-oh I came home again [repeat verse 1, completely different chords] E When I woke up this morning A B E E+ A B You were on my mi-i-i-ind and A G#m F#m B You were on my mind E Amaj7 I got troubles, whoa-oh E Amaj7 I got worries, whoa-oh E C#m F# I got wounds to bind Bridge: B C# F# And I got a feelin' B C# F# F#+ B C# Down in my sho-oo-oo-oes, said B A#m G#m C# Way down in my sho-oo-oes F# B Yeah, I got to ramble, whoa-oh F# B I got to move on, whoa-oh F# D#m G#m7 C# I got to walk away my blues [repeat verse 1, completely different chords yet again] F# When I woke up this morning B C# F# B C# You were on my mind B A#m G#m C#sus4 You were on my mind F# B I got troubles, whoa-oh F# B I got worries, whoa-oh F# G#m E C#7sus4 C#7 I got wounds to bind Coda (electric 12-string): (F#) (F#sus4) F# v v v v v v v v v -9---6---9---6---|-7---6---7---6---|-6-- ---7---7---7---7-|---7---7---7---7-|-7-- -----------------|-----------------|-6-- -----------------|-----------------|---- -----------------|-----------------|---- -----------------|-----------------|---- -- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
