Chords, Guitar Tablature & Lyrics
____________________________________________________________________________________
I think that there are two electric guitars and one acoustic guitar in this one. I'm going to show you the chords and a tip or two - you can take it from there. Be sure to visit my tab page in order to understand how I write tablature on the web.

THE CHORDS:
(intro lick) Ab Db
(PIANO & GUITAR INTRO)
Db Gb
last night, while you were far away
Ab Db
I thought I saw the devil and heard him say
Db Gb
I've come to take away your soul
Ab Db
to a place where you can't play no rock-n-roll
Db Gb
well, I've got dreams that wake me in the night
Ab
gonna turn my hair to gray,
gonna make me fade away,
Db
gonna make me see a little light
Db Gb
a man once told me with a smile
Ab Db
lock all your troubles in a fire
Db Gb
but then someone showed up with the key
Ab Db
you know you can't never hide what you can't see
Db Gb
and I've got dreams that wake me in the night
Ab
gonna turn my hair to gray,
gonna make me fade away,
Db
gonna make me see a little light
Db Gb
dreams that wake me in the night
Ab
cryin' out for heaven sake,
gonna make me lay awake,
Db
gonna make me see a little light
Db Gb Ab Db
(SLIDE SOLO)
Db Gb
pretty girls with curly hair
Ab Db
I sometimes think that I should take my share
Db Gb
but that special one that means so much
Ab Db
I just don't want to lose her special touch
Db Gb
and I've got dreams that wake me in the night
Ab
gonna turn my hair turn to gray,
gonna make me fade away,
Db
gonna make me see the light
Db Gb
dreams that wake me in the night
Ab
cryin' out for heaven sake
gonna make me lay awake,
Db
gonna make me see a little light
Ab Db Gb Ab Db Ab Db
gonna make me see a little liiiiiight

TIPS
The intro lick is (string/fret) 6/4, 5/4, 5/3, 6/6 - play the 6/4 with your second finger and the rest falls in place. Play the first note rather quickly. The notes in between the Db chord symbols are (string/fret) 6/4, 6/6, 6/8. I had to tune my guitar slightly higher to be in tune with the recording.
I hope you enjoyed playing this one.
Remember, that by learning this song, you are helping to preserve the music of the Ozark Mountain Daredevils!
