QUITTIN' TIME (by Robb Royer & Roger Linn; performed by Mary-Chapin Carpenter) ----------------------------------- Okay, a couple notes about this song. First of all, the electric guitar plays this song in D, and Mary-Chapin plays the acoustic guitar in C, capoed up two frets (as I've written it here). Don't worry too much about the bass notes in the chorus; they were just so obvious I had to put them in. The little riff at the end of the C Fmaj7 G G lines (after "tell me what we're gonna do") is just Gsus4-Gsus4-G, Gsus4-Gsus4-G. Finger G as 320003, and use your index finger to do the first fret on the B string. (Of course, it's Asus4-Asus4-A if you play it in D.) Each chord is half a measure. Capo 2.
One more thing: in her 1994 Acoustic Tour, MCC performed a slowed-down version of this song. The chords were pretty much the same, but it was finger-picked instead of strummed, and there was an E or E7 chord between the G and Am, right before "But you pretend..." Try it.
