So there are a few easy walks on the bass note that are semi-important and the piano does them in the real song. When I show them I'll only show the relevant strings. Like for the first run I only show the A and the D strings but it really means: e-----------| B-----------| G-----------| D--------1--| A--2--4-----| E-----------| Pay close attention to what these chords are called and their voicings. Don't use the ones that chord books suggest, use these: Eadd9 Etype2 *A* Amaj7 A6 A/C# e--2 e--4 e--0 e--4 e--2 e--0-| B--0 B--0 B--4 B--2 B--2 B--2-| G--1 G--1 G--2 G--2 G--2 G--2-| D--2 D--2 D--2 D--2 D--2 D--2-| A--2 A--2 A--0 A--0 A--0 A--4-| E--0 E--0 E--0 E--0 E--0 E--0-| When those A chords are melting away at the ends of some of those lines (led me to today...), you'll see that my Amaj7 and my *A* will be part of an easy line that should just move your pinkie down a note at a time and keep the meat of the A chord intact. Like this or something similar: A6 A *A* A e--2----0----0----0-| B--2----2----4----2-| G--2----2----2----2-| D--2----2----2----2-| A--0----0----0----0-| E--0----0----0----0-| Intro: E A F#m B D--------1--| A--2--4-----| E A F#m B [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/m/mountain-goats/305148.html ] E A F#m B In the holding tank I built for myself, it's feeding time E A F#m B And I start to feel afraid 'cause I'm the last one left in line F#m E D A6 A *A* A/C# The endless string of summer storms that led me to today E A B E Began one afternoon with you long ago and far away C#m A E Amaj7 A6 A *A* And someone leads the beast in on its chain E B A A6 Amaj7 But I know you're thinking of me 'cause it's just about to rain E A B Eadd9 So I wont be afraid of anything ever again E A F#m B A--2--4--2 E A F#m B E A F#m B In the cell that holds my body back, the door swings wide E A F#m B And I feel like someone's lost child as the guards lead me outside F#m E D A6 A Amaj7 And if the clouds are gathering, it's just to point the way E A B E To an afternoon I spent with you when it rained all day C#m A E A/C# *A* A And someone leads the beast in on its chain E B A A/C# *A* A/C# But I know you're thinking of me 'cause it's just about to rain E A B Eadd9 Etype2 So I wont be afraid of anything ever again Etype2 A F#m B D-----1----| A--2-----2-| E A F#m B D--------1--| A--2--4-----| E A F#m B D-----1-----| A--2-----2--| E E/A Etype2 |
