This is my first tab. It sounds right to me. You can pick the verses and then strum the chorus. No Capo (Verse) D Well, I was thumbin' from Montgomery F Had my guitar on my back G D When a stranger stopped beside me in an antique Cadillac. D F He was dressed like 1950, half drunk and hollow-eyed. G D He said, "It's a long walk to Nashville. Would you like a ride, son?" (Verse) D F I sat down in the front seat. He turned on the radio, G D And them sad old songs comin' out of them speakers was solid country gold. D F Then I noticed the stranger was ghost-white pale when he asked me for a light G D And I knew there was something strange about this ride. (Chorus) D C G D He said, "Drifter, can you make folks cry when you play and sing? D Have you paid your dues? Can you moan the Blues? D A Can you bend them guitar strings?" A C G D He said, "Boy, can you make folks feel what you feel inside? D C G D 'Cause if you're big-star bound, let me warn you it's a long, hard ride." (Verse) [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/d/david-allan-coe/365140.html ] D F Then he cried just south of Nashville and he turned that car around. F G D He said, "This is where you get off, Boy, 'Cause I'm goin' back to Alabam'." D F As I stepped out of that Cadillac, I said, "Mister, many thanks." G He said, "You don't have to call me 'Mister', Mister; D The whole world called me 'Hank'!" (Chorus) D C G D He said, "Drifter, can you make folks cry when you play and sing? D Have you paid your dues? Can you m-o-o-oan the Blues? D A Can you bend them guitar strings?" A G C D He said, "Boy, can you make folks feel what you feel inside? D C G D 'Cause if you're big-star bound, let me warn you it's a long, hard ride." D C G D He said, "Drifter, can you make folks cry when you play and sing? D Have you paid your dues? Can you m-o-o-oan the Blues? D A Can you bend them guitar strings?" A G C D He said, "Boy, can you make folks feel what you feel inside? D C G D 'Cause if you're big-star bound, let me warn you it's a long, hard ride." D C G D If you're big-star bound, let me warn you it's a long, hard ride. |
