Madder Rose--"I Almost Lost My Mind"

transcribed by Patrick Glass (pglass@comp.uark.edu)

from the wonderful album you probably don't own Panic On

These lyrics may be wrong, but you get the idea :)

Opening Riff (these are the notes to it, even though they use harmonics
on the record, this will be much easier for most of you

 G		   Em
-3------------------0---2---0----------|
-0---0-0------------0------------------|
-0-------0----------0------------------|		play twice
-0-0----------------2------------------|		then lyrics start
-2------------------2------------------|
-3------------------0------------------|


(during the chorus after each Em chord, hammer on the 2nd finger on the
high E string)

G			 Em
If I just hang around outside

G			   Em
I may just see you passing by

G   			    Em
And spend another sleepless night

G			         Em
Looking for the nerve to face you

    G                              Em
And I can only think of one thing

G   				Em
I can only think of one thing

(these chords just pick them not one note at a time, whatever works for you)

G             A     C        A                 C
It comes from way inside, to let you know that I

        G                        A
See you crying all the time, and you'll cry

        C                    C (hold)
See you crying all the time, I almost lost my mind


play the riff twice again

G		         Em
If I could summon up the will

G		          Em
To call you up and talk until

G  				 Em
I'd get bedrezzled (??) from the chill

G                		Em
It's always left me shaking

    G					Em
And I can only think of one thing

G				Em
I can only think of one thing

   G	      A     C        A                 C
It comes from way inside, to let you know that I

        G                               A
See you crying all the time, and you'll cry

	C                    C (hold)
See you crying all the time, I almost lost my mind


then there's a solo, where I usually play the opening riff again, and the
G and Em chords or something. I'm too lazy to figure out the solo though,
since I just have an acoustic guitar and don't really like to play them :)

the song ends on Em
