JOHN (COUGAR) MELLENCAMP lyrics - A Ride Back Home 


	This is my first time tabbing asong (x02210@1)from scratch and I have no music training
	It's all from ear and watching the video. Em?7, either the Emor (022000@1)Em7 thats the 
	only chord that I could make fit I'm not sure if even belongs. There's nothing
	technical about this, I just tab it so I could play it. I think it's better 
	than the other C (x32010@1)name="chord_133211@1">F capo version so I'm going to share it.

	G6add9 = 1st string third fret thats it
Em?7 = Em or Em7

DHey (xx0232@1)Jesus can you give me a ride back home
                                                 AI've (x02220@1)been out here in this world too long on my own
GI (320003@1)won't bother you no more
DIf (xx0232@1)you can just get me in the door
A (x02220@1)               Em?7		           DHey (xx0232@1)Jesus can you give me a ride back home

DWhen (xx0232@1)I started out I was so young and so strong
                                                    AI (x02220@1)just let it roll off my back when things went wrong
GNow (320003@1)it's starting to get to me
DAll (xx0232@1)of this inhumanity
A (x02220@1)               Em?7                   DHey (xx0232@1)Jesus can you give me a ride back home
	
G (320003@1)                     DYou (xx0232@1)wouldn't know it by looking at me now
G (320003@1)                           DBut (xx0232@1)I was showing some promise once upon a time
A (x02220@1)      G6add9
But it's gone now
A (x02220@1)          G6add9
And it ain't coming back
A (x02220@1) G6add9
My time's come and gone
A (x02220@1)          G6add9
It's as simple as that

DHey (xx0232@1)Jesus this world is just too troublesome for me
                                                AI (x02220@1)try to fight off all these devils but I'm just too weak
GWhen (320003@1)I'm out here walking all alone
DI (xx0232@1)feel like taking my life but I won't
    A (x02220@1)           Em?7                     D (xx0232@1)		
Too big a coward, can you give me a ride back home
Hey Jesus can you give me a ride back home
Hey Jesus can you give me a ride back home
