2- Honey I’ve Been Thinkin’ ‘Bout You

5- A Thing Called RainNOTES: Capo on 2nd fret. Pretty difficult way of finger picking. The chords that the picking is centered around are D, A7, E, G. You can strum them instead of picking them, but it wont sound as much like it. I wrote out the first two sequences, and it just repeats. He varies the pattern a little bit each time, but for the most part, this is how it goes:

I kept your picture in a frame, I kept your heart out on a chainBut hearts don’t belong on chains, and pictures don’t belong in frames

People come and people go, foe to friend and friend to foeAnd you do just what you’re supposed to do, cause the clock don’t ever stop for you

and she thinks she knows me well, for 6 nights in a cheep motelshe gave her heart away for free, she gave it all away to me

now I’m needle dancing on a pin, match under my heals againnot every bird will sing for you, no matter how you ask her to

I can’t believe the way she acts, she doesn’t even know the factsBut ain’t that the way it goes, you’re telling truths in liars clothes

Born and raised and born again, I can’t tell you why or whenBut everything will happen twice, sure as fire plain as ice

So I’ts broken hearts and dusty roads, somewhere there my soul explodes With every peace of every day, everything I meant to say

And where I’ll be no one can tell, I’m fishing in a wishing wellI’m doing the best I can, I hope you’ll understand.

I seen the lights that shine, countless colors in my mindThey climb and swim and spark and glow, and ask me what it is I know

Well I know a thing called love, a thing called thunder in the sky aboveAnd I know a thing called pain, I know a thing called rain

7- I Don’t Care About My BabyNOTES: Capo on 3rd fret. Same pattern is played throughout the song. It’s very difficult to get the hang of it, but once you do, man, this song is bad ass. When listening to the recording, notice the sound that comes on the off beats (2 and 4), this is simply Jackie slapping his guitar while he is playing. This is very important to master if you want the song to sound exactly like Jackie plays it. On some of the tricky parts, I’ll add in the finger that you’re supposed to use underneath the tab. 1=index, 2=middle, 3=ring, 4=pinky. There are some notes that he plays right before the measure starts so I had to alter the way the tabs look from previous songs, but it should be pretty obvious what I’m trying to get across.

LEGENDS=slide. So 3s5= start on 3rd fret and slide up to the 5th fretH=hammer. So 0h2= start with no finger down and hammer finger down on 2nd fret.P=pluck. So 2p0= start with finger planted on 2nd fret and then when you let go, pull off hard on the string you let go with so it makes a sound without strumming it. The sound is made without right hand strumming the string. ~=let ring

There was a time when you cared for meHoney there was a time you prepared for meThose days are gone honey they’re down the drainYou got to find someone else to call your name

I don’t care about my babyShe don’t care about meI don’t care about my babyShe don’t care about me

There was a time when you loved me soHoney there was a time you wouldn’t let me goThose days are gone honey I’m well awareThose days are gone but I just don’t care

I don’t care about my babyShe don’t care about meI don’t care about my babyShe don’t care about me

Someday soon and I wont be longSomebody gonna hurt you somebody gonna do you wrongYou’ll be cryin honey don’t you come my wayI’ll look at you and laugh honey and then I’ll say

I don’t care about you baby You don’t care about meI don’t care about you baby

You don’t care about me

You just runnin round…..

Part 1See the cars down the roadHow they go they come and they goSee the fools work all dayFade away and they don’t even knowIt’s a shame it’s insaneIt’s the world that happening here

And it’s hard to maintainWhen everything so insincereAnd alice is on the rooftopAnd alice is on the rooftop

Part 1Theres a part in a play That I swear was meant just for meIt’s the part of a sailor That’s becoming afraid of the seaWhere you goin where you beenAre you tryin so hard to fit inWhat’s the point fix the jointAnd tomorrow you can tell me againAnd alice is on the rooftopAnd alice is on the rooftop

Part 2 AAnd the sun don’t ever comePart 2 BWhere the rain refuses to fallPart 2 AAnd you can’t jump the bridge Part 2 CWhen there aint no bridge at all.

Part 1There’s a cross in the handOf a man who’s ready to dieThere’s a bird on my windowI believe she’s ready to flyTake your toes from the ledgeAnd your arms open wideYou’re so tied you’re so tornBut you’re heard keep beating in sideAnd alice is on the rooftopAnd alice is on the rooftopPart 1Hey Alice…

9- Seven Jealous SistersNOTES: Capo on 5th fret. This song needs a whole band to play in order for it to get the full effect. I’ve never seen Jackie play this solo. This doesn’t mean he never has, just that I’ve never heard it. I wrote the chords in with the first two verses, but the pattern repeats so I only wrote the lyrics. There’s a little riff that he plays before each verse and I’ll call it “riff.” Here are the chords and the riff:

E7 - Blues A 3 Blues B 23 2 41 - 22 2 42 - 2- x 2

Riff-- 3- 3 -- 2- 2 -- - - - -- 2 -2 -- - - - -- - - - -Riff E7 Riff E7Tell me baby, tell me baby A EWhat you want, what you wantE7Well It’s 95 miles between here and MoblieE7And I ain’t got nothing but time to kill B E7You tell me, what you want

Riff E7 Riff E7Don’t mistreat me, don’t mistreat me A EI wont hurt you, I wont hurt youE7You can love me fast, you can love me longE7You can love me all night or all day long B E7Don’t mistreat me, honey don’t

I’m gonna move out, I’m gonna move outAway from here, away from hereI’m gonna build my house in the mud and sticksJust me, myself and the devil in a fixGonna move out, away from here

Operator, operatorDial me Jesus, dial me Jesus

I been waitin so long, so patientlyI been waitin too long just to be set freeDial Jesus, dial him now

Sun is bleedin, sun is bleedinOn my head, on my headWell they call me boy, they call me kidBut they don’t understand a word I saidSun’s bleedin, on my head

Take me home baby, take me home babyLet me be your other manWell I aint good lookin and I aint too brightBut I can keep you busy in the middle of the nightYa take me, take me home

Seven sisters, seven sistersOn my mind, on my mindWell they all live apart, they don’t ever speakSo I can have me one every day of the weekSeven sisters, on my mind

10- Emily’s in HeavenNOTES: Capo on 3rd fret. The song is mostly chords, but there is a recurring sequence that I will call “step down.” Also, there is a part that comes before each verse; I’ll call it “intro.” Here are the chords, intro, and the step down.

13- Don’t Mind Me, I’m Only Dying SlowNOTES: Capo on 2nd fret. Low E string (deepest string) tuned two whole steps down to a C. If you have trouble figuring this out, just put the capo on the 2nd fret and the note it’s supposed to be tuned to is the very first one he plays (use him as your guide.) Here are the chords:

C - C1 - C2 - Am - G0 3 F0 3 G02 3 Em -1 1 1 1 3 1 - -- - - 2 - 2 - -2 3 - 2 - 3 - 23 3 3 - 2 - 2 2- - - - x x x 4

C C1 C C2 COut from my window the people are passing on byC C1 C C2 CI hear them complain but I know that they don’t even try Am G0 F0 G02 C C2 CAnd the lights down on main street don’t shine like they used to Am G0 F0 G02 C C2 CAnd I’m thinking of nothing but spending a lifetime with you

C C1 C C2 CYou know that I love you, you know that I’ll wait by your doorC C1 C C2 CYou know how I’m feelin so I wont have to feel it no more Am G0 F0 G02 C C2 C

But nobody could love you like I can Am G0 F0 G02 C C2 CHoney someday you’ll wake up and maybe you’ll understand

C C1 C C2 CI got a friend of a friend who drives a nice carC C1 C C2 CAnd I got acquaintances down at the neighborhood barAm G0 F0 G02 C C2 CI got some women who stop by my home Am G0 F0 G02 C C2 CBut somehow I end up waking each morning alone

AmThe train that I ride gots nothing aside EmFrom the phantom conductor with a dog at his side

F0And the ghost of a weeping wedingless bride G02Who should have been married but never arrived AmAnd I see through the windows like I see through the lies EmLike I see through every useless disguise F0 G0That everyone wears but everyone swears that they don’t

C C1 C C2 CI’m tryin so hard just not to thinking about youC C1 C C2 CI try not to care about anything that you do Am G0 F0 G02 C C2 CBut 4 in the morning, and I can’t sleep Am G0 F0 G02 C C2 CWell the pills aint workin and I can’t get no relief

C C1 C C2 CI feel like a hound dog moanin along with the rainC C1 C C2 CAny day now the jukebox could drive me insane Am G0 F0 G02 C C2 CAnd there’s an old man in the corner that nobody knows

Am G0 F0 G02 C C2 CHe says “laugh while you can because someday you’ll be wearing my clothes.”

C C1 C C2 CWell I guess I can’t tell you what you don’t already knowC C1 C C2 CI aint no prophet my landlord he told me so Am G0 F0 G02 C C2 CBut my mind is a burnin ring, a Saturn flame Am G0 F0 G02 C C2 CI feel things inside that I, I just can’t explain

AmI know that you know how to fake and to take EmWhat you break, what you burn, what you never did learn F0And you turn and you say that you made a mistake G02As your head starts to spin and your head starts to ache AmBut all that you make will be all that you get EmWhen the curtain goes down so don’t you forget F0 G0That all you regret is a cheep silhouette and that’s all
