Chords, Guitar Tablature & Lyrics
____________________________________________________________________________________
I think that there are 3 acoustic guitars in this one - along with a million keyboards. I'm going to show you just the chords - you can take it from there. Be sure to visit my tab page in order to understand how I write tablature on the web.
If there is enough interest, I'll post all the keyboard tab - just kiddin'. :)

THE CHORDS:
G G G G2 G/F#2
(GUITAR INTRO)
Em9 Am7 Em9 Am7 Em9
(KEYBOARDS ENTER)
Am7 Em9
sometimes I know how good it feels
Am7 Em9
to be as free as a rolling wheel
Am7 Em9
cause then you just appear to me
Am7 Cmaj7 Cmaj7/F#
within the shapes of things I see
Em9 Am7 Em9 Am7 Em9
when I leave
Am7 Em9
I watched an eagle way up high
Am7 Em9
makin' circles in the sky
Am7 Em9
I watched a river passin' by
Am7 Cmaj7 Cmaj7/F#
I've see it all from time to time
Em9 Em9 Am7 Am7
in your eyes
Em9 Em9 Am7 Am7
Em9 Em9 Am7 Am7
Em9 Em9 Am7 Am7 Em9
(KEYBOARD STUFF)
Am7 Em9
I've listened to the birds in spring
Am7 Em9
while taking walks in the late evening
Am7 Em9
and seen the clouds writing in the wind
Am7 Cmaj7 Cmaj7/F#
in you it all begins
Em9 Em9 Am7 Am7
and ends
Em9 Em9 Am7 Am7
Em9 Em9 Am7 Am7
Em9 Em9 Am7 Am7...
(repeat and fade)

TIPS:
EACH of the chord symbols represent four beats except for these two: G2 and G/F#2 , - each receives two beats.
I'm not very sure of the Cmaj7/F# chord - never have seen this one before - but that's what it sounds like (it could be the guitars are playing Cmaj7 and the bass alone is playing the F# - still weird). When you play this chord, definetely make sure you go lightly on the F# but let the other 5 strings ring out...
Try out the alternate chords for a change of pace...
I hope you enjoyed playing this piece.
Remember, that by learning this song, you are helping to preserve the music of the Ozark Mountain Daredevils!
