Came across that piece on sugarman.org. An awesome site when you want to know about Sixto Rodriguez. However, listening to the song and watching some videos I reckon the version with the 7 chords much more fits what he plays. Check it out Em A Em7 A7 Born in the troubled city Em A Em7 A7 In Rock and Roll, USA Em A Em7 A7 In the shadow of the tallest building Em A Em7 A7 I vowed I would break away Em A Em7 A7 Listened to the Sunday actors Em A Em7 But all they would ever say Em That you can't get away from it A Em A No you can't get away Em No you can't get away from it A Em No you can't get away Em A Em7 A7 Schooled on the city sidewalks Em A Em7 A7 Coldness at every turn Em A Em7 A7 Knew I had to find the exits Em A Em7 A7 I never, ever would return Em A Em7 A7 Scoffed at the prophet's omens Em A Em7 A7 That said I would live to learn Em A Em7 That you can't get away from it Em. A no you can't get away Em. A. no you can't get away from it Em. A no you can't get away [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/r/rodriguez/380919.html ] Em A Em7 A7 Going unaided (up 80?) toward the west coast Em A Em7 A7 Stopped in the sleepy town Em A Em7 A7 Left my change and walked out Em A Em7 A7 I didn't even turn around Em A Em7 A7 What they were getting next to Em A Em7 A7 Was that old familiar sound Em A Em7 A7 That you can't get away from it Em. A no you can't get away Em. A no you can't get away from it Em. A no you can't get away Em A Em7 A7 In a hotel room in Amsterdam Em A Em7 A7 On a wild and windy August night Em A Em7 A7 As a cloud passed over a cold moon Em A Em7 A7 My heart was seized with terror and fright Em A Em7 A7 Seeping up through the floorboards Em A Em7 A7 Coming in through the walls Em A Em7 A7 Coming in through the doorway Em A Em7 A7 Ringing up and down the halls Em A Em7 That you can't get away from it Em no you can't get away A Em A7 no you can't get away from it Em A Em7 A7 no you can't get away Em A no you can't get away Em A no you can't get away Em A no you can't get away... |
