***************************************************************************** This is my first posting, but I'm pretty sure it's close if not right on to the original recording by Alabama (according to what I can hear anyway!). Tabbed by: Non-registered Guest ***************************************************************************** Chord diagram shows something different than I'm doing: C7 I'm using = standard C + pinkie on 3rd fret 3rd string ***************************************************************************** Song Title: HIGH COTTON Artist: Alabama [F] We didn't know the times were lean [Bb] Round our home the grass was green It [F] didn't seem like things were all that [C7] bad I [F] bet we walked a thousand miles [Bb] Chopin' cotton and pushin' plows And [F] learnin' how to [C7] give it all we [F] had. [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/a/alabama/225414.html ] [F] As life went on and years went by [Bb] I saw the light in daddy's eyes And [F] felt the love in mama's [C7] hands They [F] kept us warm and kept us fed [Bb] Taught us how to look ahead Now [F] lookin' back, [C7] I [F] understand. Refrain 1: We were Walkin' in [F] High Cotton Old times [Bb] there are not forgotten Those [F] fertile fields are never far a-[C7] way We were Walkin' in [F] High Cotton Old times [Bb] there are not forgotten Leavin' [F] home was the hardest [C7] thing we ever [F] faced. When [F] Sunday morning rolled around [Bb] We dressed up in hand-me downs Just [F] in time, together with the [C7] church Sometimes [F] I think how long it's been [Bb] And how it impressed me then It [F] was the only day [C7] my daddy wouldn't [F] work. REPEAT Refrain 1 (Change to key of G:) Refrain 2: [F] We were Walkin' in [G] High Cotton Old times [C] there are not forgotten Those [G] fertile fields are never far a-[D7] way [P] We were Walkin' in [G] High Cotton Old times [C] there are not forgotten Leavin' [G] home was the hardest [D7] thing we ever [G] faced. REPEAT Refrain 2 We Were Walkin' In High Cotton.  |
