GHOST RIDERS IN THE SKY – The Outlaws (Johnny Cash, Spiderbait)
Am C
An old cowpoke went riding out one dark and windy day
Am
Upon a ridge he rested as he went upon his way
Am (F/A) (D/A) (F/A)
When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw
F (Dm) Am
coming through the ragged sky, and up a cloudy draw
Am C
Their brands were still on fire and their hot breath he could feel
Am
Their horns were black and shiny and their hooves were made of steel
A bolt of fear went through him as they rumbled through the sky
F (Dm) Am
Then he saw the riders coming hard, and he heard their mournful
cry
CHORUS
C Am (G)
Yippe-ai-ay, yippee-ai-oh
F (Dm) Am
Ghost riders in the sky
Am C
As the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name
Am
If you want to save your soul from hell, a riding on this range
Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride
F (Dm) Am
Trying to catch the devil's herd, across these endless skies
CHORUS

Des’ree LIFE
Chorus:
C G Am F
Life, oh life, oh life, oh life,
doo, doot doot dooo.
C G Am F
Life, oh life, oh life, oh life,
doo, doot dooo
C G
I'm afraid of the dark,
Am
'specially when I'm in a park
F
And there's noone else around,
Ooh, I get the shivers
C G
I don't want to see a ghost,
Am
It's a sight that I fear most
F
I'd rather have a piece of toast
C
And watch the evening news
(Repeat Chorus)
I'm a superstitious girl,
I'm the worst in the world
Never walk under ladders,
I keep a rabbit's tail
I'll take you up on a dare,
Anytime, anywhere
Name the place, I'll be there,
Bungee jumping, I don't care!
(Repeat Chorus)
life, doo, doot dooo
doo, doot dooo
So after all is said and done
I know I'm not the only one
Life indeed can be fun, if you really want to
Sometimes living out your dreams,
Ain't as easy as it seems
You wanna fly around the world,
In a beautiful balloon
(Repeat Chorus)
HURT – Johnny Cash
(Not actually about ghosts although maybe junkies can see them when they’re high?)
Replace all Ds with Dsus2 (lift bottom finger off regular D) and all Fs with Fadd9
(just let your index finger off the A – a lovely one finger chord)
C Dsus2 Am C Dsus2 Am
I hurt myself today to see if I still feel
C D Am C D Am
I focus on the pain the only thing that's real
C D Am C D Am
The needle tears a hole the old familiar sting
C D Am C D G
Try to kill it all away but I remember everything
Am F C G
What have I become? My sweetest friend
Am F C G
Everyone I know goes away in the end
Am F C G
And you could have it all My empire of dirt
Am F C G
I will let you down I will make you hurt
C D Am C D Am
I wear this crown of thorns upon my liars chair
C D Am C D Am
Full of broken thoughts I cannot repair
C D Am C D Am
Beneath the stains of time the feeling disappears
C D Am C D G
You are someone else I am still right here
For this last part just strum a G
If I could start again A million miles away
I would keep myself I would find a way

COUNTRY DEATH SONG
Violent Femmes
The other tabs were incorrect, so this is what I have found. I think it is pretty accurate.
First of all, this is the bass line throughout the entire song.
Every "-" indicates an eighth note
G|--------|--------|
D|--------|--------|
A|5---5---|5---5235|
E|--5---5-|--5-----|
The bassline starts, the after a few measures, the guitar kicks in with this...
Dm
e|--1---1-|
B|--3---3-|
B|2-2---2-|
D|--0-0-0-|
A|--------|
E|--------|
This is the pluck/strum pattern that is consistent throughout the entire song, it is
easy, just pluck the third string, then strum the entire chord, then pluck the fourth
then strum the entire chord. The lead instrument in the song is the banjo, and I do not
banjo so I cannot give you that tab. But this is the guitar.
Dm
I had me a wife, I had me some daughters.
Am
I tried so hard, I never knew still waters.
Dm
Nothing to eat and nothing to drink.
Dm
Nothing for a man to do but sit around and think.
Dm Am Dm
Nothing for a man to do but sit around and think.
Dm
Well, I'm a-thinkin' and a-thinkin', till there's nothin' I ain't thunk.
Am
Breathing in the stink, till finally I stunk.
Dm
It was at that time, I swear I lost my mind.
Dm
I started making plans to kill my own kind.
Dm Am Dm
I started making plans to kill my own kind.
(Banjo kicks in)
Dm
"Come, little daughter," I said to the youngest one,
Am
"Put your coat on, we'll have some fun.
Dm
We'll go out to the mountains, the one to explore."
Dm
Her face, it lit up, I was standing by the door.
Dm Am Dm
Her face, it lit up, I was standing by the door.
Dm
"Come, little daughter, I will carry the lanterns.
Am
We'll go out tonight, we'll go to the caverns.
Dm
We'll go out tonight, we'll go to the caves.
Dm
Kiss your mother goodnight and remember that God saves.
Dm Am Dm
Kiss your mother goodnight and remember that God saves."
(For this verse, the guitar part is only a percussive raking of the strings, Gordon
just strikes on the quarter notes but sometimes he mixes it up and plays a few eighth or
beats)
I led her to a hole, a deep black well.
I said "make a wish, make sure and not tell
And close your eyes dear, and count to seven.
Know your papa loves you, good children go to heaven.
Know your papa loves you, good children go to heaven."
(No guitar for this verse)
I gave her a push, I gave her a shove.
I pushed with all my might, I pushed with all my love.
I threw my child into a bottomless pit.
http://chordie.com/chord.pere/www.guitaretab.com/v/violent-femmes/20390.html
She was screaming as she fell, but I never heard her hit.
She was screaming as she fell, but I never heard her hit.
(Continues with percussive quarter note strums.)
(The bridge for the guitar is the same as the first verse, I have listened to the song
closely and any leads or solos are banjo or bass, the guitar just strums)
(The next two verses are just percussive rakes of the strings)
Gather 'round, boys, to the tale that I tell.
You wanna know how to take a short trip to hell?
It's guaranteed to get your own place in hell.
Just take your lovely daughter and push her in the well.
Take your lovely daughter and throw her in the well.
Don't speak to me of lovers with a broken heart.
You wanna know what will really tear you apart?
I'm going out to the barn, with a never-stoppin' pain...
I'm going out to the barn, to hang myself in shame.

Folsom Prison Blues Johnny Cash
Hear this song at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1xSt7iganA
From: Richard G’s Ukulele Songbook www.scorpex.net/uke.htm
[G] I hear the train a comin' it's rolling round the bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine since [G7] I don't know when
I'm [C] stuck in Folsom prison and time keeps draggin' [G] on
But that [D7] train keeps a rollin' on down to San An[G]ton
[G] When I was just a baby my mama told me son
Always be a good boy don't [G7] ever play with guns
But I [C] shot a man in Reno just to watch him [G] die
Now every [D7] time I hear that whistle
I hang my head and cry [G]
[G] I bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car
They're probably drinkin' coffee and [G7] smoking big cigars
Well I [C] know I had it coming I know I can't be [G] free
but those [D7] people keep a movin'
And that's what tortures [G] me
[G] Well if they'd free me from this prison
If that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move it all a little [G7] further down the line
[C] Far from Folsom prison that's where I want to [G] stay
And I'd [D7] let that lonesome whistle blow my blues a[G]way
The original recording of this song is in F.

Substitute the following chords to play along:
G=F, G7=F7, C=Bb, D7 = C7

It's good enough for me
Well, it was good enough for my grandpa

It was good enough for my grandpa
It was good enough for my grandpa
Sister don't get worried

Because the world is almost done

It was good enough for Billy Burroughs


Because the world is almost done
*Interlude* (verse)

It was good enough for Isabelle Eberhardt


Because the world is almost done...

To the caverns of my heart

Hanging down towards the ground

Would you still come around?

To the lamplight

Of your eyes

On the back of a cartoon coaster
Am7
In the blue TV screen light
Dm C
I drew a map of Canada
C G2 Am7
Oh Ca - na - da
Dm C G2
With your face sketched on it twice
F Em
Oh, you're in my blood like holy wine
Dm C
You taste so bitter and so sweet

Oh, I could drink a case of you darling and I would
Dm C G2 C
still be on my feet, oh I would still be on my feet
C G
Oh I am a lonely painter
Am7
I live in a box of paints
Dm C
I'm frightened by the devil
G Am7 G2
And I'm drawn to those ones that ain't afraid
C G Am7
I remember that time you told me, you said love is touching souls
Surely you touched mine 'cause

Dm C
Part of you pours out of me
G
In these lines from time to time
F Em
Oh, you're in my blood like holy wine
Dm C
Taste so bitter and so sweet

Oh, I could drink a case of you darling

Still I'd be on my feet

I would still be on my feet
C G
I met a woman, she had a mouth like yours
Am7
She knew your lies
She knew your devils and your deeds, and she said
Dm C
Go to him, stay with him if you can
G
But be prepared to bleed
F Em
Oh but you are in my blood, you're my holy wine
Dm
You're so bitter, baby
C
Bitter and so sweet
C C G2 Am7
Oh I could drink a case of you darling

Still I'd be on my feet

Bizarre Love Triangle
Fm7 G
Every time I think of you
Em F
I get a shot right through into a bolt of blue
G
It's no problem of mine but it's a problem I find
Em F
Living a life that I can't leave behind
F G
There's no sense in telling me
Em F
The wisdom of a fool won't set you free
F G
But that's the way that it goes and it's what nobody knows
Em F
And every day my confusion grows
Fm7 G
Every time I see you falling
Em F
I get down on my knees and pray
F G
I'm waiting for that final moment
Em F
You say the words that I can't say
Fm7 G
I feel fine and I feel good
Em F
I feel like I never should
G
Whenever I get this way I just don't know what to say
Em F
Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday
F G
I'm not sure what this could mean
Em F
I don't think you're what you seem
G
I do admit to myself that if I hurt someone else
Em F
Then I'd never see just what we're meant to be

[G] For my [D] mum [G*] [D] [G]
When actually I’m just [G] standing be[G] neath
Target [G] air conditioner’s [G] freezing [D] hum [G*] [D] [G]

Between the [D] gingham and the [G] polyester [D] mix [G*] [D] [G*]

The usual crowd was assembled And big Joe McKinney was there.
He was standing at my shoulder.

His eyes were bloodshot red;
He turned to the crowd around him,
These are the very words he said:
"I went down to the St James Infirmary

I saw my baby there,
She's laid out on a cold white table,
So so cold, so white, so fair."
chorus
"Let her go, let her go, God bless her;
Wherever she may be
She may search this wide world over
She’ll never find a sweet man like me."
Oh, when I die, bury me

In my high top Stetson hat;
Put a twenty-dollar gold piece on my watch chain
God'll know I died standin' pat.
I want six crap shooters for pall bearers.

Chorus girl to sing me a song.
Put a jazz band on my hearse wagon.
Raise Hell as I roll along.
Roll out your rubber tired carriage,

Roll out your old time hat.
Twelve men going to the graveyard
And eleven coming back.
Now that I've told my story,

I'll take another shot of booze.
And if anyone should happen to ask you,
I've got those gamblers' blues.

TO HAVE AND TO HAVE NOT
Billy Bragg
C F C Am G C
C F C
up in the morning and out to school
Am G C
mother says there'll be no work next year
C F C
qualifications once the golden rule
Am G C
are now just pi eces of paper
C F C
Just because you're better than me
Am G C
doesn't mean i'm lazy
C F C
just because you're going forwards
Am G C
doesnt mean i'm going backwards
(same riff for the whole song)

if you look the part, you'll get the job
in last year's trousers and your old school shoes
the truth is son, it's a buyer's market
they can't afford to pick and choose
just because you're better than me

just because i dress like this
doesn't mean i'm a communist
the factories are closing and the army's full

i don't know what i'm going to do
but iv'e come to see that in the land of the free
there's only a future for the chosen few

doesn't mean i'm going backwards
at twenty-one you're on top of the scrap heap

at sixteen you were top of the class
all they tought you in school was how to be a good worker
the system has failed you, don't fail yourself

doesn't mean im going backwards
thats just the chords. i suggest listening to the cd and playing around with the
dynamics. alo try picking through the chords or just hitting the overdrive and playing
power chords. just have fun with it. send questions, comments, or corrections to

I Will Survive-Gloria Gaynor 32
(Am)First I was afraid I was (Dm)petrified,

Kept thinkin' (G)I could never live without you (C)by my side.
But then I (F)spent so many nights thinkin'
(Dm)How you did me wrong,
And I grew (E)strong and I learned (E7)how to get along.
And so you’re back(Am)back from outer(Dm)space

I just walked(G)in to find you here with that sad(C)look upon your face
I should have (F)changed that stupid lock,
I should have(Dm) made you leave your key
If I had (E)known for just second you’d be (E7)back to bother me.
Go on now(Am) go, walk out the (Dm)door,

Just turn (G)around now, cause you’re not (C)welcome anymore
(F)Weren’t you the one who tried to (Dm)hurt me with goodbyes?
Did you think I’d (E)crumble? Did you think I’d (E7)lay down and die?
Oh no not(Am) I, I will(Dm)survive
For as (G)long as I know how to love I (C)know I’ll stay alive.
I’ve got(F)all my life to live, I’ve got (Dm)all my love to give,
And I’ll (E)survive, I will (E7)survive—hey hey.
(Am)(Dm)(G)(C)(F)(Dm)(E)
It took(Am) all the strength I had not to (Dm)fall apart,

Kept trying (G)hard to mend the pieces of my (C)broken heart.
And I spent(F)oh so many nights just feeling (Dm)sorry for myself
I used to (E)cry, but now I (E7)hold my head up high...
And you see(Am) me, somebody(Dm) new;

I’m not that(G)chained up little person still in (C) love with you.
And so you(F) felt like dropping in, and just (Dm)expect me to be free
And now I’m (E)savin’ all my lovin’ for (E7)someone who’s lovin’ me.
Go on now(Am) go, walk out the (Dm)door,

Just turn (G)around now, cause you’re not (C)welcome anymore
(F)Weren’t you the one who tried to (Dm)hurt me with goodbyes?
Did you think I’d (E)crumble? Did you think I’d (E7)lay down and die?
Oh no not(Am) I, I will(Dm)survive
For as (G)long as I know how to love I (C)know I’ll stay alive.
I’ve got(F)all my life to live, I’ve got (Dm)all my love to give,
And I’ll (E)survive, I will (E7)survive—hey hey.

Oh What A Queer Sensation
[C] Young Ellen Lovecock [F] was a [C] lass, both beautiful and [F] tender [C]
There weren’t a lad in [F] all the [C] town who’d willingly [F] offend [C] her
But though she was but [F] just [C] fifteen and humble [F] was her [C] station
Each [F] night as [G] she lay [C] on her [Am] bed she [C] felt such a queer [F] sensation [C]
[C] Young Lubin he was [F] stout and [C] strong and kissed her more than [F] one [C] day
He used to walk her [F] in the [C] fields but that was every [F] Sunday [C]
One day while wandering [F] through a [C] grove in a state of [F] agitation [C]
He [F] slipped his [G] hand [C] above her [Am] knee for he [C] felt such a queer [F] sensation [C]
[C] Young Ellen blushed like [F] any [C] rose but o she couldn’t [F] resist [C] him
His fingers wandered [F] neath her [C] clothes and filled with joy she [F] kissed [C] him
While pressed unto her [F] belly [C] tight his roger [F] left his [C] station
And [F] stood [G] revealed [C] before her [Am] sight while she [C] felt such a queer [F] sensation [C]
[C] Then down they both sunk [F] on the [C] grass, Lubin till know had [F] felt [C] it
But Ellen’s petticoats [F] flew [C] up and of course he then [F] beheld [C] it
The sight increased his [F] lecherous [C] fire, she cried in [F] consternation [C]
Oh [F] Lubin; [G] Lubin [C] I [Am] expire, I [C] feel such a queer [F] sensation [C]
[C] Four times they played their [F] amorous [C] sport, till nature could no [F] longer [C]
Then Ellen sighed, O [F] would my [C] dear, that roger was but [F] stronger [C]
But after all, [F] indeed it’s [C] true, Whate’er your [F] rank and [C] station

The Centre of the Universe – Nigel McRae
⎜G⎜ Jesus didn’t have much to ⎜Am⎜ say about anal ⎜Em⎜ play
I guess he didn’t ⎜Bm⎜ think about it ⎜C⎜ very much
Or maybe he was ⎜Bm⎜ out of touch ⎜Am⎜
⎜G⎜ I think he’d say it’s ⎜Am⎜ok, you don’t have to be ⎜Em⎜ gay
To enjoy some ⎜Bm⎜ stimulation of the ⎜C⎜ back passage
A little intimate ⎜D⎜ tongue massage
Chorus
These ⎜Em⎜ days seem to have ⎜C⎜ blown that sucker ⎜G⎜ away
We know he had ⎜D⎜ something to say
But in a ⎜Em⎜ world far from here ⎜C⎜ superstitious and fearful
Where they ⎜D⎜ still thought the earth was the centre of the universe
Instr.
⎜G ⎜Am ⎜G ⎜C D ⎜
⎜G ⎜Am ⎜G ⎜C D G ⎜
⎜G⎜ Jesus didn’t know that the ⎜Am⎜ bees communicate with their ⎜Em⎜ knees
He didn’t know that you could ⎜Bm⎜ make a baby in a ⎜C⎜ petri jar
Or how much like ⎜Bm⎜ monkeys we are ⎜Am⎜
⎜G⎜ Jesus didn’t know we would ⎜Am⎜ fly, to join the ⎜Em⎜ mile high club
He’d ⎜Bm⎜ have to have climbed a ⎜C⎜ mountain
Miracles ⎜D⎜ discounting
Chorus
Instr x2
⎜G⎜ Jesus didn’t know that his ⎜Am⎜ words would become so ⎜Em⎜ absurd
When in the ⎜Bm⎜ hands of rich and ⎜C⎜ powerful men
Maybe he’ll come ⎜Bm⎜ back again ⎜Am⎜
⎜G⎜ And if the priests and he ⎜Am⎜ met, would they lie down and ⎜Em⎜ confess
Or would they ⎜Bm⎜ string him up like they ⎜C⎜ did last time
I guess they’d think that they’re ⎜D⎜ doing just fine
Chorus

With roses they will strew the way,
Get ready for the Jubilee,

Hurrah! Hurrah!
We'll give the hero three times three,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
The laurel wreath is ready now
To place upon his loyal brow
Let love and friendship on that day,

Hurrah, hurrah!
Their choicest pleasures then display,
Hurrah, hurrah!
And let each one perform some part,
To fill with joy the warrior's heart,
