This is mostly correct, but try this for the Chorus:
pre> Em D C And the people who love me still ask me Em D C When are you coming back to town G Am7 And I answer quite frankly G/B C When they stop building roads G D G And all God needs is gravity to hold me down /pre> -tdavis | 12/18/2004 |
yeah that is right -guitarplayer456 | 12/27/2004 |
Thanks for the correction :D -EMRLDEYZS | 12/27/2004 |
Ron said he plays it tuned way down on his guitar. He tunes it B F# B F# B C#. He needed a new saddle, nut and bridge just for this song and Dan plays it in standard tuning. Just thought I'd pass this info on. Scott -scottmiller | 1/18/2005 |
Glad to know I have to rebuild my rig :) I really appreciate the hardwork that you all do. I have really improved playing along to songs I like and them actually sounding correct. I see so much criticism in the comments on other tunes, people get really bent out of shape, the way I look at it, they could try to tab them themselves. Keep up the good work.

does anyone know the chords/tab ron plays in his tuning? -malfoyxb | 2/21/2005 |
I prefer to play it with the capo on 2 (same key as the recording) G becomes A C becomes D D becomes E Em becomes F#m
also please try this for Chorus 2 F#m E D And the people who love me still ask me F#m E D When are you coming back to town A Bm And I answer quite frankly C#m D When they stop building roads A E F#m And there aint no more highways to be found A Bm And I answer quite frankly C#m D When they stop buildin roads A E A And all God needs is gravity to hold me down -eboswald | 3/7/2005 |
To Eboswald, I agree yours is the correct version. I've been playing it this way as well.(Capo 2, key of A) It has a much fuller sound, and lends itself to better transitions between chords. I highly recommend it.
Also, the beginning is as follows: E, D, A...then boogie!
To Emeraldeyes, In chorus 2: G D Em And there ain't no more highways to be found (but you knew that) -vfrjeff | 3/10/2005 |
I play it capo 2 also.. I only did it in G for beginning players... Someone who has been playing as long as you or I knows how to transpose it. Beginning players usually can't play the barre chords. -EMRLDEYZS | 3/10/2005 |
Would it be a problem if on occasion one played it;
A D And I answer quite frankly A D When they stop buildin roads
Instead of;
A Bm And I answer quite frankly C#m D When they stop buildin roads
Sometimes, when I'm tired or trying to keep up with others, this gets me by. Any complaints? -vfrjeff | 4/22/2005 |
