Dwight Yoakam  -  Love Caught Up To Me (tab)

By axehappy  -  axehappy at countrytabs.com


I think all of the lead in this song is played on a baritone guitar or something
like that, but I've kinda arranged it to be played on a guitar using Dropped-D tuning,
so its not exactly what is played (some parts I've tabbed higher), just similar.

The chords shown here are just to be played on a standard tuned guitar.


D     =   xx0232                                 G     =   320003

A     =   x02220                                 F#    =   244322

E     =   022100                                 F     =   133211

Bb    =   x13331

INTRO



                 G                         D
Baby, I couldn't hide no matter how hard I tried.
                      A                          D
Was foolish to have begun to believe I'd ever outrun.
                    G                         D
And honey, I had no call to try and escape at all,
                              A                  D 
'Cause by the time I got free, love caught up to me.



                     G                 D
Baby, I used to have ways to avoid any place,
                       A                      D
That even had half the chance to cut in on my dance.
                          G                             D
Yeah, my cool heart hung around, only if it couldn't be found,
                          A                       D
But showed up permanently, when love caught up to me.



F#                         G
  The fascinations of each lie,
F#                           G
  I told myself were reasons why
E                         F
 The feeble boast I made alone,
Bb                              A
  Sounds faded, worn and all outgrown.

INSTRUMENTAL



                     G                        D
Hey, I could never afford honey, all it would cost,
                    A                 D
To replace what you do if it ever got lost.
                      G                        D
But baby, I'd beg and steal just to keep how I feel,
                       A                       D
A way I never did need, 'til love caught up to me.



F#                         G
  The fascinations of each lie,
F#                           G
  I told myself were reasons why
E                         F
 The feeble boast I made alone,
Bb                             A
  Sound faded, worn and all outgrown.



                 G                    D
Baby, I couldn't hide no matter how I tried.
                      A                          D
Was foolish to have begun to believe I'd ever outrun.
                    G                         D
And honey, I had no call to try and escape at all,
                              A                  D     
'Cause by the time I got free, love caught up to me.
                            A                  D      
Yeah, by the time I got free love caught up to me.
