Tuning:Standard
I was suprised no one has tabbed this song out yet, so I decided to do it. I just did the chords so listen to the song for all of the extra guitar parts. This is my first tab so sorry if I made some mistakes or if stuff is confusing but it should be pretty solid sounding anyway.
Also the *D just means its a quick one stroke on the D and then back to the Em quickly. Listen to the song for details. You dont have to play it if im confusing but I think it sounds nice at some spots.
Intro: EmGC *DEm (play x4)
(pause)
Verse 1 part 1 EmCDEmC Down in the holler there’s a thriving town a treasure trove that makes the DEm world go round CDEmGC when the city barrens bring their legal papers and guns oh darling don’t be DEm afraid to run
(no break between these two verse parts)
Verse 1 part EmCDEmCD when we came to settle here we came to stay maybe raise a family,earn Em decent wage CDEmGCD now ever public servant reeks of suspi-cion, so darlin don’t be afraid to Em run
Chorus GCDEmGCDEm darlin don’t be afraid to run and don’t turn your back on the noon day sun GCDEmGCD some day redemption will wash everyone but there’s no telling when that day Em will come GCD so darlin don’t be afraid......
(solo starts after x2) EmGC *DEm (play EmGC *D x4 including the last Em of the chorus) ..to run
(long pause)
Verse 2 maybe we'll rendezvous out in no-wheres-ville or maybe we'll find each other running still until we reach that auspicious liaison oh darlin don’t be afraid to run
Chorus2 darlin don’t be afraid to run and don’t turn your back on the noon day sun the people will meet you with derision, you'll never be their model citizen so darlin don’t be afraid.......to run
Play Em G C *D x9 (i think) with solo and end on Em
