Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Haven't seen the chords for this song anywhere so I decided to do it on my own. It was kinda hard to get the chords right, but just listen to the song while you play it the first times and you will get it. By the way, I wasn't good enough to find out the chords for the outro. Sorry for that.
Intro (this might look tricky but you simply play each chord for each note):
CmBb/DBbCmAbAbBbGmAbCmCmBb/DBbCmAbAbBbGmAbEb
Eb Leaves are fallin' down on the beautiful ground Cm I heard a story from the man in red Eb He said "The leaves are fallin' down
Such a beautiful sound Cm Son, I think you'd better go ahead Eb But you always hold your head up high Cm 'Cause it's a long, long, long way down Eb This town was meant for passing through
Boy it ain't nothin' new Cm Now go and show 'em that the world stayed round AbGmFmEbEbAbGmBb But it's a long, long, long way down Eb You better run for the hills
Before they burn Cm Listen to the sound of the world
Don't watch it turn FmGm I just want to show you what I know Ab And catch you when the current Bb Lets you go Eb Or should I just get along with myself Cm I never did get along with everybody else Eb I've been tryin' hard to do what's right CmAb But you know I could stay here, all night Fm And watch the clouds fall from the sky BbEbCm This river is wild EbCmBb/F This river is wild
Eb Run for the hills before they burn Cm Listen to the sound of the world
Don't watch it turn
I shake a little Eb Sometimes I'm nervous when I talk
I shake a little Cm Sometimes I hate the line I walk FmGm I just want to show you what I know Ab And catch you when the current Bb Lets you go Eb Or should I just get along with myself Cm I never did get along with everybody else Eb I've been tryin' hard to do what's right CmAb But you know I could stay here, all night FmBb And watch the clouds fall from the sky CmBb/DBbCmAb Because this river is wild AbBbGmAbCm Godspeed ya, boy CmBb/DBbCmAbAbBbGmAb This river is wild
Eb Now Adam's taking bombs and he's stuck on his mom Cm Because that bitch keeps tryin' to make him pray Eb He's with the hippie in the park combing over the dark Cm Just tryin' to get some of that little-girl play AbGm You better run for the hills before they burn Fm Listen to the sound of the world Eb Don't watch it turn FmGm I just want to show you what I know Ab And catch you when the current Bb Lets you go
Eb Or should I get along with myself AbGm I never did get along with everybody else BbCm I've been tryin' hard to do what's right EbAb But you know I could stay here
All night AbFmBb And watch the clouds fall from the sky AbBb This pain is hell in me tonight
CmBb/DBbCmAb Because this river is wild AbBbGmAbCm Godspeed ya, boy CmBb/DBbCmAbAbBbGmAb This river is wild CmBb/DBbCmAb Because this river is wild AbBbGmAbCm Godspeed ya, boy CmBb/DBbCmAbAbBbGmAbEb This river is wild
And cars are everywhere Raisin' dust at the fairground I don't think I ever seen so many headlights But there's somethin' pullin' me The circus and the crew Well they're just passin' through Makin' sure the merry still goes 'round But it's a long, long, long way down
