hi tyler!
Is that correct? (lines 1-2 sound strange):
VERSE 1: When you (C) wake up in the mornin', baby (Am) look inside your mirror, I won't be next to (F) you You (C) know I won't be (G) near
I'd be (C) curious to know if your re(Am)flection is as clear As the (F) one that I've got (G) on my (C) mind
(F) Mama you've been (G) on my (C) mind
-honky-tonk_boy | 8/22/2005 | On my "Orange Blossom Special" album, there are 2 versions of this song: track 7 (recorded 12/17/64) and track 15 (a bonus track previously unreleased in the U.S. recorded 7/27-28/64). Lyrics and rhythm are a little bit different, but I think chords are the same... I prefer track 15 (earlier version of track 7) 'cause it is more "punchy", and 'cause lead guitar sounds better. So that's the song that I'm looking for. Thanks for helping. -honky-tonk_boy | 8/22/2005 | Honkeytonkboy,
Since you requested this song, I have went back through and changed the chord progression & lead to match the early take (track 15) of MAMA YOU'VE BEEN ON MY MIND. The one I posted before was the master take (track 7) recorded several months later. I was not sure at first which version you wanted. I also perfer the early take. Hope this helps.
Tyler -tyler1501 | 8/22/2005 | Hi Tyler,
My old computer broke off 1 month ago, but now I'm back on the internet with a brand new G5 computer! ^_^
During this time, I learnt a lot of Johnny's songs, and I've got some new ones to suggest you: (of course, lead guitar is welcome too)

Also, where you have the muted guitar riff after some of the verses, you could typr it out the first time it appears, and then write "Repeat" where it's needed. It's just a suggestion if you'd like to save time when typing up your tabs. This is a good tab. I use the original chords that Bob Dylan uses,(He uses C7, C7/B, and other different types of chords, but Cash's version is awesome. I love the guitars in Cash's songs. I've seen your tab here before, but didn't get a chance to say that you did a great job with it, like your other tabs. Countrytabs is very very lucky to have you submitting songs here. -macg1 | 11/9/2005 |
