@SONG: * HANNAH JANE
(tabbed by randell@heinous.music.uiowa.edu)

Intro: G---Am---G---Am-D-G---Am---Bm---Cmaj7

G                D
 You've got your big girls
C                  D
 Now you have your young ones too
 Wonder if someday I can have them
 The way I once had you

Em               D
 I remember your grin and remarks
Em                     D
 We'd get drunk and go out after dark
C	              D
 Searching for someone we could take home

   G                Am
    You don't wanna be alone
   G                Am      D
    You don't wanna see the sun go down
   G                Am
    You don't wanna open the door
   D        C   D    C
    And see her go
    One step and tomorrow comes
    Two steps and she's off with someone
    Three steps and it's all you know
              Bm              C
    You'll be home, she'll be gone

(G-D-C-D)
So what are you gonna do about me?
I'll be there when you have no one else
Spotted the ocean in the south's holy land
I'll be there, be your friend

(Em-D thing)
Hold on strong, don't let go
There'll never be no one to take your place
So don't you wanna reach out and take my hand?

(chorus) 

Solo: G-D-C-D thing, then Em-D thing

(chorus) 
(repeat 2nd half of chorus)

@SONG: * HOLD MY HAND
(tabbed by Paul Hutchinson )

Intro:
|Bsus2 E    |  x4

              Bsus2 E          Bsus2     E
With a little love    and some tenderness
      Bsus2         E            Bsus2          E   etc
We'll walk upon the water, we'll rise above the mist
With a little peace, and some harmony
We'll take the world together, we'll take them by the hand

F#               E*       B   
  Cause, I got a hand for you, oh
F#               E*       B
  Cause, I wanna run with you

Yesterday, I saw you standing there
Your head was heavy, your eyes were red, no comb had touched your hair
I said "Get up, and let me see you smile
We'll take a walk together, walk the road a while"

  Cause, I got a hand for you  -  I got a hand for you
  I wanna run with you         -  won't you let me run with you

    B    E* F#
    Hold my hand   -  want you to hold my hand
    B    E* F#
    Hold my hand   -  I'll take you to a place where you can be
    B    E* F#
    Hold my hand   -  anything you wanna be, because
  E*
    I wanna love you the best that, the best that I can

See I was wasted, and I was wasting time
Till I thought about your problems, I thought about your crimes
Then I stood up, and then I screamed aloud
"Don't wanna be part of your problems, don't wanna be part of your crowd, no"

  Cause, I gotta hand for you  - I got a hand for you
  I wanna run with you         - won't you let me run with you

    Hold my hand - want you to hold my hand
    Hold my hand - I will take you to the promised land
    Hold my hand - Maybe we can't change the world but,
    I wanna love you, the best that, the best that I can

Solo: |Bsus2 E    | x4
      |F# E* |B     | x2

    Hold my hand - want you to hold my hand
    Hold my hand - I'll take you to a place where you can be
    Hold my hand - anything you wanna be cause
    I, no lo lo, oh ho  (!?)

    Hold my hand - want you to hold my hand
    Hold my hand - I will take you to the promised land
    Hold my hand - Maybe we can't change the world but,
    I wanna love you, the best that, the best that I can

@SONG: * LET HER CRY
(tabbed by randell@heinous.music.uiowa.edu)

G               D
 She sits alone by a lamppost
C (or Csus9)                                 G
 Trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind
 She says Dad's the one I love the most
 But Stipe's not far behind

She never let's me in
Only tells me where she's been
When she's had too much to drink
I say that I don't care
I just run my hands through her dark hair
Then I pray to God you gotta help me fly away
And just...

            C
    Let her cry
           G
    If the tears fall down like rain
            C
    Let her sing
          Em    G       D
    If it eases all her pain
            C
    Let her go
            G
    Let her walk right out on me
               D
    And if the sun comes up tomorrow
            C           G
    Let her be, let her be

This morning I woke up alone
Found a note standing by the phone
Saying, "Baby, maybe I'll be back someday"
I wanted to look for you
You walked in I didn't know just what I should do
So I sat back down and had a beer and felt sorry for myself
Saying...

(chorus)

(solo - 8 bars over verse)

(chorus)

Last night I tried to leave
Cried so much I could not believe
She was the same girl I fell in love with long ago
She went in the back to get high
And I sat down on my couch and cried
Yelling "Oh mama, please help me
Won't you hold my hand" 
And...

(chorus) x 2

@SONG: * ONLY WANNA BE WITH YOU
(tabbed by Steve Vetter 
 and Paul Hutchinson )

NB Capo 2nd fret

Intro: |E   Aadd6 |E   Aadd6 |E   Aadd6 |Bsus4     |
       |E   Aadd6 |E   Aadd6 |E   Aadd6 |E   Aadd6 |

E        Aadd6  E                  Aadd6
 You and me, we come from different worlds
E            Aadd6              E             Aadd6
 You like to laugh at me when I look at other girls
 Sometimes you're crazy and you wonder why
 I'm such a baby, cause the dolphins make me cry

             F#m7sus           A
Well there's nothing I can do
                                  E    Aadd6  E    Aadd6
I've been looking for a girl like you *

You look at me, you got nothing left to say
I'm gonna pout at you until I get my way
I won't dance, you won't sing
I just want to love you, but you want to wear my ring

But there's nothing I can do
I only wanna be with you  *
        A              Bsus
You can call me a fool
                     E    etc
I only wanna be with you

Put on a little Dylan** sitting on a fence
I say that line has made you ask me what it meant by it
Said I shot a man named Grey, took his wife to Italy
She inherited a million bucks and when she died it came to me

I can't help it if I'm lucky, I only wanna be with you  *
Ain't Bobby so cool, I only wanna be with you

Solo: (Same chords as verse)

Well I'm tangled up in blue, I only wanna be with you *
You can call me a fool, I only wanna be with you

Sometimes I wonder if it'll ever end
you get so mad at me when I go out with my friends
Sometimes you're crazy and you wonder why
I'm such a baby, yeah, the dolphins make me cry

But there's nothing I can do - I only wanna be with you *
You can call me a fool, I only wanna be with you        *
         A                 Bsus
Yeah I'm tangled up in blue, I only wanna be with you   *
I only wanna be with you                                *
I only wanna be with you                                *
I only wanna be with you                                *

Chords: E-022100  Aadd6-x04200  Bsus-x24400  F#m7sus-244200  A-x02220

NB: Note that the bass guitar treats the Aadd6 chords as B
...............
**Dylan as in Bob whose borrowed line from Idiot Wind appears in this 
song. They credit Bob in the liner notes for the first album Kootchypop.  
They also refer to Tangled up in Blue from the same album.  Curiously enough,
they also are probably reffering to Dillon Fence a band from the same area, 
which has had some regional success.  And you thought you were just getting 
a CRD file 
;-)  -sjv
................

There's a ton of guitars on this song (maybe a mandolin too) and it's 
very difficult to audibly separate them. Just strum along. However, there is 
a fill used at the points of the song marked with an asterisk *:

  +   +   +   +     +   +   +   +
|-----------------|-----------------|
|-----------------|-----------------|
|-----------------|-----------------|
|-------2---4---4-|/6-4-2-4---2-----|
|---2-4-----------|-----------------|
|-----------------|-----------------|

This is doubled an octave up - you can do this on one guitar with an octave
pedal or a pitch shifter set an octave up.

This is the solo. Note that for the first few bars, since it is played 
close 
to the capo, I've given fret positions relative to the capo.
  +       +       +       +         +       +       +       +

@SONG: * RUNNING FROM AN ANGEL

 and Paul Hutchinson )

Intro:  |E   |G#m  |F#m   |E    |   x3 (Band in 2nd time)			

E       G#m                      
  Mama please don't go 
          F#m      E
Won't you stay for one more day
I've been your boy for so long now
There's so much I, I still have to say
The sky ripped open and I held my heart in my hand 
Like a soldier on his very last day
Cried myself to sleep that night
And I listened as I heard the angels sing, Sha la la

      E        B             D               A
	Sha la la la, sha la la la, I'm goin home
	Sha la la la, la la la la, I'm goin home	

Something inside of me makes me scream
How could God take you from a little boy?
He'll be all right he's by my side
He's not a little boy, he's my pride and joy, Sha la la la 

	Sha la la la, sha la la la, I'm goin home
	Sha la la la, la la la la, I'm goin home	

Solo: (Same chords as half a verse)

Summer on the radio                        }
When the phone rang, and it was Jeannette  }- Without guitars
Saying, "Boy, we got to let her go"        }
I beg, "No, no not yet"                    }
You left six of us to fend for ourselves
Guess it's just part of someone's master plan
We'll see you left cause your my best friend
You were lighter then and I smiled when the angels sang sha la la la

	Chorus: (Repeat to fade)

Chords: E-022100  G#m-466444  F#m-244222  B-x24442  D-x00232

NB: Although I think the chord formations shown above are those used on the 
recording, if you are playing this by yourself you can make the chorus 
sound really big by using B-799800  D-x50770.  :-)

@SONG: * DROWNING
(tabbed by randell@heinous.music.uiowa.edu,
 and Paul Hutchinson )

(intro): |G   Fadd9|  x8

G                Fadd9	            G	           Fadd9
Trouble with the world is we're too busy to think about it, all right
Why is there a rebel flag hanging from the state house walls?
Tired of hearin' this shit about heritage not hate
Time to make the world a better place

Why must we hate one another?
Well no matter what we gotta live together
Just that you don't look like me, tell me what do you see 
When we pass on the street what do you wanna see?

Am-C-Am-G-Am-C-D

Peace coming is all I gotta say
Wanna turn and run away
They're just telling you how they see it
Right or wrong they don't care, you wish that they would quit

Am-C-Am-G-Am-F-G

  C        F     G            F
   Drowning in a sea of tears
   Hatred trying to hide your fears
   Living only for yourself
   Hating everybody else
   Cause they don't look like you

|G   Fadd9|  x4

Nancy singing it's a hard life wherever you go
About some fat racist living in Chicago
Trying to teach his kids to hate everyone
Well tell me why is that something you wanna teach your son?

Am-C-Am-G-Am-C-D

Why must we hate one another?
When the people in the church, they tell me you're my brother
You don't walk like a redneck, you don't talk like redneck
Go back to Africa, I just don't understand

(chorus)

(solo): |G   Fadd9|  x8

(C-F-G-F)
(Drowning) I'm trying to be someone that he could look up to, but
(Hatred)   When I walk down the street, tell me what do you see?
           I'm a man, I'm a man, I'm a man
(Living)   No I'm not like you
           Why do you hate me so?
           I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
(Hating)   Hating everybody else cause they don't look like you
................
There are two rhythm guitars here. A clean electric (mixed left) strums 
chords throughout the song. Note that Fadd9 is played as 1x3213 (playing the
bass string with your thumb). An acoustic (mixed right) is played with a capo
on the fifth fret - to convert the chords:
 G becomes D, Fadd9 => Cadd9 (x32033), Am => Em, C => G, F => C, D => A

There are also two lead guitars in this song, which play the solo and the 
links between the verses. They play power chords for the Am-C... things.
If you only have one lead guitarist in your band, you can loosely approximate
both guitar parts with a pitch shifter by playing the right channel guitar 
(the one on top) with pitch shifter set to a perfect 4th (5 frets) above- use
your ears and change the bits which end up sounding particularly daft.

@SONG: * TIME
(tabbed by Paul D ,
 randell@heinous.music.uiowa.edu
 and Paul Hutchinson )

(intro): |D  Em  |  x4

D Em D Em       D       Em D Em
Time__,  why you punish me
Like a wave crashing into the shore 
You wash away my dreams
Time__,  why you walk away
Like a friend with somewhere to go
You left me crying

           Asus2
   Can you teach me about tommorow
       G                      D    Em       D  Em
   and all the pain and sorrow, running free
           Em                       Asus A
   Cause tomorrow's just another day
                          D    Em  etc
   And I don't believe in time

Time__,  I don't understand
Chidren killing in the streets
Dying for the color of a rag
Time__,  hey there red and blue
Wash them in the ocean make them clean
Maybe their mothers won't cry tonight

   Will you teach me about tommorow
   When all the pain and sorrow, running free
   But tomorrow's just another day
   And I don't believe in 

      D              
      Time is wasting
        Em
      Time is walking
     D             Em      
      You ain't no friend of mine
     D             Em
      I don't know where I'm going
     D          Em        A    G
      Think I'm out of my mind
                     D    Em   D    Em
      Thinking about time
    Em                  Asus
      If I die tomorrow yeah
           A              D    Em   D    Em
      just lay me down to sleep

Solo: |Bm  A  |G     |Bm  A  |D  G  |A  G  |A  G  |A  G  |

      Time is wasting 
      Time is walking   
      You ain't no friend of mine
      I don't know where I'm going
      Think I'm out of my mind
      Thinking about time
	
Time__,  you left me standing there
Like a tree growing all alone
The wind just stripped me bare, stripped me bare
Time__,  the past has come and gone
The future's far away
But now only lasts for one second, one second

   Can you teach me about tommorow
   And all the pain and sorrow, running free
   Cause tommorow's just another day
   And I don't believe in 

      Time is wasting
      Time is walking  
      You ain't no friend of mine
      I don't know where I'm going
      Think I'm out of my mind     {keep playing Ds and Ems}
      Walking, wasted
      You ain't no friend of mine	
      I don't know where I'm going
                   A                        G
      Oh no, no, no, Do without courage and ???
                D     Em       D       Em
      It's just wasted, wasted, wasted time
    Em    Asus A
      Oh..

D  Em  D  Em  D  Em  D  Em 
           Ooo............
D Em D Em       D       Em   D
Time__,  why you punish me?

Chords: D-xx0232  Em-022033(technically Em7)  A-x02220  
        G-320033  Asus-x02230  Bm-x24432  Asus2-x02200
................

The following is the riff played (twice at the start as an intro, and then
throughout the verse) by two semi-clean electric guitars 
  +     +     +     +	    +     +     +     +	    
|-------------------3-----|-------------------3-----|

|----2--------0-----------|----2--------0-----------|
|-0--------0h2------------|-0--------0h2------------|
|-------------------------|-------------------------|
|-------------------------|-------------------------|

The bridge ("Can you teach me about tomorrow..") goes along these lines
  +   +   +   +	    +   +   +   +       
|-----------------|-----3---3-----3-|
|---------0-----0-|---3-------3-----|
|-----2-----2-----|-------0-----0---| 
|---2---2---------|-----------------|

Then the main riff again, followed by
  +   +   +   +	    +   +   +   +       
|---------3-------|-----------------|
|-------3---3-----|-3-----2---------|
|-----0-------0---|---2-------------|
|-----------------|-----------------|
|-----------------|-----0-----------|
|-0---------------|-----------------|

At this point an acoustic guitar enters strumming the chords. From this 
point on, one of the electrics plays the riff during the verses, the part
shown above during the bridges, and strums the chords during the choruses 
("Time is wasting..") and solo. The second electric plays the occasional 
power chord during verses and bridges and strums along to the choruses.
It also takes the solo:
  +   +   +   +	    +       +   +   +     +   +   +   +

|-------------------------------|---/7----------------------------|-----
|-------------------------------|---------------------------------|-----

At the end of the last chorus, the second guitar drops out; the acoustic
and the first electric play the main riff in unison to the end, finishing
with an open D chord.

@SONG: * LOOK AWAY
(tabbed by randell@heinous.music.uiowa.edu
 and Paul Hutchinson )

(riff-see tab)  
Saw her standing there
Tears upon her cheeks told me something was wrong
I asked her what it was
She looked away and said, "My daddy's home"

(riff)
I knew what that meant
It meant that I can never see you again
I had seen this once before
I didn't wanna deal with it anymore

   G       Em
    "Look away", she said
   D            D/F# G
    As she turned a-way from me
         Em
    And I tried to hold her
   D            D/F# G
    Couldn't let her be
            Em          D   D/F#
    Let her be, let her be

(riff)
I said "Why,
Why do you make me cry"
She said, "I love you so
Look away, I don't wanna know"

(riff)
I saw her standing there
Tears upon her cheek told me something's wrong
I said, "What baby"
She looked away and said, "My daddy's home"

    "Look away", she said
    As she turned away
    My God, I know I loved her, couldn't let her be
    Let her be, let her be

(riff)
Look away
Look away
She said, "I love you so
Look away"

@SONG: * NOT EVEN THE TREES
(tabbed by by Marc Virata ,
 Steve Vetter ,
 randell@heinous.music.uiowa.edu,
 and Paul Hutchinson )

Intro: |Dsus2 |A/D    |  x2

Dsus2       A/D
Alone, as I sit and watch the trees
Dsus2                                                    A/D
  Won't you tell me if I scream, will they bend down and listen to me
                Bm                   A        
And it makes me wonder if I'll know the words when you come
            G 
Or will you laugh at me or will I run?

Little boy says to me "Where you goin' now, son?"
I said "I don't know where I'm goin' boy 
I only know where I'm from."
And it makes me wonder if the stars shine when my eyes close
           G                       D
Or does my brother's heart cry, oh I don't know

   G                        D
     I'm a stranger in my home
   G                          D
     Now that everybody's gone
   G                                   Bm          Bm7
     Someone please talk to me cause I feel you cry
                A                      G
     And you're sitting with him and I know I'll never see you again

Lying down in Charleston underneath the Carolina sky
You see I'm tired of feeling this pain
I'm tired of livin' my own little lie
And it makes me wonder when I see you in my dreams
Does it mean anything, are you trying to talk to me?

I'm a stranger in my home
Tell me, are you feeling alone?
Someone tell me what to do,
'Cause I'm feeling strong
And I wonder how you feel
                                G    F#m  Em
Does he realize, my pain is for real

                Bm
I see you in my dreams
      Asus                     A7                           Bm    Bm7
and I wonder if you're looking down at me and smiling right now
        A G                                Bm
Oh yeah I wanna know if it's true, when he looks at me
Bm7                      Asus   
Won't ya tell me, does he realize, 
   A7
he came down here, and he took you to soon, oh

And now my days are short and my nights are long
I lay down out with memories of you, that keep me going on, going on
Now I know that it makes me wonder, as I sit and stare,
Will I see your face again - tell me, do you care?

I'm a stranger in my home
Livin' life on my own
Right now I just can't see
'Cause I'm feeling weak
And my soul begins to bleed
And no one's listening to me
Not even the trees

This is played over the first half of the verses, twice before each verse,
and four times at the end of the song. 
The following is played over the second half of the first verse:
  +   +   +   +     +   +   +   +     +   +

|-2-------2-------|-0-------0-------|-2----
|-----------------|-----------------|-3----
   
At the end of the other verses, going into the chorus, rather than holding
the G chord, play the following:
  +   +   +   +     +   +   +       +         +   +   +       +

|-----------------|-------------------------|-------------------------|
|-3-------3-------|---------------------2---|-3-------3-3-3-3-----3---|

Note that after the first verse, there are three guitars on the recording
doing their own thing - but since there isn't really anything fancy enough
to justify wasting a lot of space tabbing them all out, the chord 
formations shown above make a reasonable arrangement for one guitar. 
However, do note that over the verse riff, one of the other guitars
(an acoustic) uses these chords: Dsus2-xx0235  A/D-xx0225

@SONG: * GOODBYE
(tabbed by randell@heinous.music.uiowa.edu)

Note: This is the piano part, transcribed for guitar - it sounds 
really cool to arpeggiate the chords some... :)

Intro: G---Em---C-Bm-Am---

  G                   Em
Tomorrow used to be a day away
    C                       Bm                Am
Now love is gone and you're into someone far away
I never thought the day would come
When I would see his hand not mine
Holding on to yours because I could not
Find the time

                      G   Am
    And now I can't deny
                     G    Am
    Nothing lasts forever
                      C                 D		      Em    A
    But I don't wanna leave and see the teardrops in your eyes
                  C               D	             G-C  G/B-C-G
    I don't wanna live to see the day we say goodbye

Now there comes another fallen life
I come alone
Sitting at a bar with Chris that I can't leave 
'Cause my house ain't no home
I just wanna touch you girl
I wanna feel you close to me
Without your love I would give up now
And walk away so easily

    So maybe while we're gone
    We'll figure out together
    That even with the pain there's a remedy 
    We'll be alright
    I don't wanna live to see the day we say goodbye

D             C                          G
 When I first met you I couldn't love anyone
         Em                      A
 But you stole my dreams and you made me see that
       D                             C          
 I can walk into the sun and I could still be me

    And now I can't deny
    Nothing lasts forever
                  C                 D		      Bm    Am
    But I don't wanna leave and see the teardrops in your eyes

    So maybe while we're gone
    Lets figure out together
    That even with the pain there's a remedy, oh, and
    We'll be alright
                  C               D	             G    C 
    I don't wanna live to see the day we say goodbye
               G    C
    We say goodbye
            G    C
    Oh, goodbye
        G/B  C  G
    Goodbye
