Chords, Guitar Tablature & Lyrics
____________________________________________________________________________________
I don't know about y'all, but I had one hell of a time tryin' to finger this one out! I seem to have a lot of trouble decipherin' Larry Lee songs (ie, Jackie Blue, which Lee co-wrote with Steve Cash was also very tricky).
Anyway, I think that there are three acoustic guitars playing rhythm in this song. There are also at least two electrics - one which does a beautiful slow picking during the verse and ending guitar solo. I know that there is a sweet electric guitar twin-solo in the middle of the song and a killer electric lead at the end - but I can't tab them at this time - I've already spent too much time on this one song. So, I'm just going to show you 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.

people goin' here, goin' there,
G
where's that leave me
D A
now they're comin' in my door
C(w/9th) Cmaj7 Bm/B
to explore what's running around in me
Bm/A Bm/G#
but it's not me that they'll finally find
Bm/G D A
behind the smile on my face
C(w/9th) Cmaj7
when I tell them they have
Bm/B Bm/A
all lost the race to the end
Bm/G# Bm/G
'cause they've passed themselves with-in
D
with-out
A C G
D A C G
(GUITAR SOLO)

people comin' in, goin' out,

they don't see me
D A
so I'm flyin' through the air
C(w/9th) Cmaj7 Bm/B
I'm not scared of people all underneath,
Bm/A Bm/G# Bm/G
in a heap, askin' how'd we get to here
D A C(w/9th)
from there where our lives had some meaning

TIPS:
During the intro, keep your 2nd finger down on the 1st string on all chords but the Dsus4/E - it sure makes playin' a lot easier.
The strumming is pretty much one big strum on every beat.
When switching between the string of Bm chords with the descending bass notes (Bm/B, /A, /G#,/G), keep the f# note (1st string, 2nd fret) ringing throughout. The first finger must press firmly across the entire keyboard - it's a bitch, but it can be done! Also, if you think of the Bm/G as a Gmaj7th - that makes the fingering not seem so convoluted.
Note that the G chord is not the usual fingering - make sure you do not play the 1st string.
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!
