Tabbed by: goobrocker
Tuning: STANDARD
CAPO 1
This is the first song off of ‘The Shade Of Poison Trees’. It’s a pretty simple song,
here you go enjoy! You can figure out the strum pattern. I’m using my finger to mute the
on purpose in order to make the sound match the cd recording.
THIS IS FOR THE RHYTHEM GUITAR MEANT TO BE PLAYED SOLO

G C9 Em7 A D/F#

Intro: G C9 Em7 A
G
Step on the stage
C9
The lights the praise
Em7
The curtain calls
A
And the big parade
G C9 Em7 A
You know that life all too well
G
The promise the pain
C9
The valor the rage
Em7
Hold up your hands
A
For the bow and the wave
G
You know his touch
C9 Em7 A
A little too well
Em7
You throw yourself
D/F#
Into their arms
G C9
Mistresses have all the fun
Em7 D/F# G
But no one's ever there to take you home
G
Box up your gloves and your
C9
Down coats
Em7
Bound for the sun and the
A
West coast
G C9 Em7 A
Where upper crust tragedies abound
G
A tip for the girl at the
C9
Coat check
Em7
The guy at the door and the
A
Bar back
G
They know your face
C9 Em7 A
Oh so well
Em7 D/F#
But movies never made you famous
G C9
All your dreams got lost or traded
Em7 D/F# G C9
And all you ever cared about got lost
Em7 D/F#
But you were surely still an actress
G C9
Older men would find attractive
Em7 D/F# G C9
And all you ever cared about got lost
G C9
Em7 A
Where there's gold, there's a gold digger
G
You throw yourself
C9
Into their arms
Em7 A
Mistresses have all the fun
G C9 Em7 A
But no one's ever there to take you home
