Tell My Mother I Miss Her So
by Ryan Bingham
Roadhouse Sun
Fun song by Bingham.
The verse is really just a C chord strummed with different voicings, but I
sometimes do this alternating C - F pattern. It's your decision if you want to do
basically a C(var.)/C/Cadd9/C pattern (explained in the intro) or what I've got for the verse.
Intro: C (X32013)- C (X32010) - Cadd9 (X32030) - C (X32010)
~~~ You are basically playing a C chord and walking down the E and B strings
Verse:
C F
Take me to see the voodoo queen,
C
Let her put a spell on me,
C F
A little bit of change will ease my pain
C
Gonna set a young man free.
Chorus:
Am G F C
Cause I've been down through your hometown
Am G F C
And all across your distant land.
Am G F C
One things for sure, honey I'll be gone,
Am G F C
Tell my mother I miss her so.
Take me to France and watch me dance,
Let me drink that wine,
Spinning around a dark haired girl,
Having us a good ol' time.
Chorus: repeat
When you can the medicine man,
Will let a feather set me free,
Out on the range outrunning them trains,
You're never gonna see me leave
Repeat Chorus several times
Repeat Am - G - F - C for the rest of the song.
