I've noticed that the chords on the other version of this song on this
site is, I'm sorry to say, very wrong. I don't wanna act like mr smart
guy, but here I'm giving you the right chords and the tab on the verses.


The verses:

E ---------------- | 
B ---------------- | 
G -(0-0)-(0-0)--0- | 
D --5-5---5-5---4- | 
A --5-5---5-5---5- | 
E 00----00----00-- | 

You can successfully play the 0's on the G-string - especially on the
last chord. It gives more depth to the chords and a nice dissonance to
the last one.

Play this tab over and over through the verses.

Verse 1:

Somebody told me... I know where to go...
Somebody showed me... I was last to know...

Sell me down the river...
Sell me down the river...
Sell me down the river...
Sell me down the river...


Chorus, with chords:
C9 and F# - see explanation on the bottom of this page (they're a little
special).

C9         G     F# D C9            G     F# D
... What I wanted...  ... is what I wanted....

C9         G     F# D C9              G     F# D A
... What I wanted...  ... is what she wanted..........


Verse 2:

Unfriendly feelings... down on wounded knee...
Unfriendly reasons... some blind mothers need...

Sell me down...
(four times once again)

Chorus: The same.


Bridge:

    A        G               A         G
You read the words, and it sells you life...

    A        G                 A       G    F
You sell their words, but it's all a lie.........


Guitar as on verses...

Chorus...

I'm not sure about the order in the end. I don't have the song
listenable right this minute.

C9          F#
E-0         E-0
B-3         B-3
G-0         G-2
D-2         D-0
A-3         A-0
E-0         E-2


That's about it folks! Have fun!
