The Hammer Goin' Down - Chris Knight/Dean Miller The original key is in Bm (Dmaj). I prefer to do the song in Am standard tuning no capo or original key Am with capo on second fret. I have submitted the tab in the original Bm key. Shane Intro: Bm (4 measures) Verse 1 Bm D The sun's goin' down on me, thoughts of her keep hauntin' me, G Dm D desperation's takin' hold. My hands are on the steerin' wheel, but G my heart's back in Louisville, at the far end of a thousand miles of Bm road. Chorus1 G Bm G My mind's grindin' like a steel gear baby, I've gotta cover some A G D G ground, she'd know how hard and fast I'm fallin' for her if she A Bm could just hear sound, of the hammer goin' down. Verse 2 Bm D Now I ain't gonna waste my time talkin' on no pay phone line, G Bm words just don't get the message through. If this rig will hold out D G one more day, she'll hear me forty miles away, tearin' in this four Bm lane half in two. [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/c/chris-knight/366473.html ] Chorus2 G Bm G My mind's grindin' like a steel gear baby, I've gotta cover some A G D G ground, she'd know how hard and fast I'm fallin' for her if she A Bm could just hear sound, of the hammer goin' down. Solo after chorus 2nd chorus G Bm G A G D G A Bm Verse 3 Bm D Now she ain't just a truck stop queen, she's the light guiding me, G Bm a thousand miles for her love. Well I'd go a million for one kiss, D G drive those pistons with my fist, and do it all again if it ain't Bm enough. Chorus3 G Bm G My mind's grindin' like a steel gear baby, I've gotta cover some A G D G ground, she'd know how hard and fast I'm fallin' for her if she A Bm could just hear sound, of the hammer goin' down. Outrro G A Bm ...if she could hear sound, of the hammer goin' down (2x) Long guitar solo Bm |
