Here's the most accurate chording for Caught in the Briars for both the Off The Record and WERS 88.9 sessions. They include the additional song "Sundown," denoted below. I also included the cool little riff he plays in Tab form. There's another version of this song that I much prefer, which is in DADGAD, but this is an easier, mellower version that doesn't require retuning or excessive hand movements. ENJOY! [Verse 1] C The back alley's full of rain G And everything's shining C As holy as she can be G The trick’s in the timing [Verse 2] C Free as a morning bird G Fragile as china C She’s stuck in the weakest heart G Of South Carolina [Chorus] Cm Where all of the naked boys Bm Lay down beside her Am Sing her the saddest song G All caught in the briars C (C's are flourished by playing open and one on the B String) G (G's are flourished by hammering open and two on the A and D strings) C G [Verse 3] Cm I never meant to fall Bm So hard in the doorway Am And all the sinners here D Have crosses for Sunday [Verse 4] Cm Kissed at the county fair Bm Frisked in the city Am Which proves as an answered prayer G But ain’t it a pity [Chorus] C Where all of the naked boys G Lay down beside her C Sing her the saddest song G All caught in the briars C G (flourish then move into strumming) [Sundown] C There go the cops with the tomcat teeth G Here come the church mice trying too hard C She had a way to be kind with words G I had a knife in the back of my car C Nobody knows when the rain may come G Nobody wants wake up and be cruel C She locked the door and the sun went down G In South Carolina with nothing to lose Cm Bm All of her naked boys Am G And not even I was true [BONUS} Riff he was playing at the beginning of the videos |-------------------| |---0---------------| |-----0-----------0-| |-----------0-0h2---| |-------0-2---------| |-3-----------------| |-------------------| |---0---------------| |-----0-------------| |-----------0-0h2-0-| |-------0-2---------| |-3-----------------| |-------------------| |-------------------| |-----------------0-| x2 |-----------0-2-----| |-------0-2---------| |-3-----------------| |-------------------| |---1-------------1-| |-----0-----0-0h2---| |-------0-2---------| |-3-----------------| |-------------------|
