Tuning: Standard
This is 100% correct as far as the key and root notes. However, as a bass player you can
obviously embellish and add your own style.
You?re playing the root notes throughout entire song. Here?s a tabbed view.
G|---------------------------| D|---------------------------| A|--3--------6-----3---------| E|-----4--6-----1-----1--3---|
I like to include the minor 7th at the beginning of the measure. I also double up on
some notes, but the point is that as long as you?re hitting the root notes ? you can make
this song your own.
The [C]young man[G#] stands on the [A#]edge of his p[D#]orch
The [F]days were[C] short and th[F]e father w[G]as gone
There was [C]no one in the[G#] town and [A#]no one in the f[D#]ield
This [F]dusty barren[C] land had give[F]n all it cou[G]ld yield
Bass comes in at the end of Vs 1 (0:33)
I've been [C]kicked off my[G#] land at the [A#]age of sixt[D#]een
And [F]I have no i[C]dea where else m[F]y heart could ha[G]ve been
I [C]placed all my[G#] trust at the [A#]foot of this h[D#]ill
And n[F]ow I am[C] sure my heart c[F]an never[G] be still
So [C]collect your[G#] courage and col[A#]lect your h[D#]orse
And p[F]ray you never[C] feel this sam[F]e kind of[G] remorse
(Bass is quiet during the first chorus)
Chorus 1
[C]Seal my[G#] heart and [A#]brake my p[D#]ride
I've [F]nowhere to[C] stand and no[F]w nowhere [G]to hide
A[C]lign my[G#] heart, my [A#]body, my m[D#]ind
To [F]face what I've[C] done an[F]d do [G]my time
Well y[C]ou are my[G#] accuser, now [A#]look in my f[D#]ace
[F]Your opression[C] reeks of you[F]r greed a[G]nd disgrace
So [C]one man[G#] has and an[A#]other has n[D#]ot
[F]How can you[C] love what i[F]t is you ha[G]ve got
When you [C]took it all[G#] from the weak [A#]hands of the p[D#]oor?
[F]Liars and[C] thieves you know no[F]t what is [G]in store
There [C]will come a[G#] time I will [A#]look in your e[D#]ye
You [F]will pray to the[C] God that yo[F]u always d[G]enied
The [C]I'll go out[G#] back and I'll [A#]get my g[D#]un
I'll say, "You [F]haven't[C] met me, I am th[F]e on[G]ly son"
[C]Seal my[G#] heart and [A#]brake my p[D#]ride
I've [F]nowhere to[C] stand and no[F]w nowhere [G]to hide
A[C]lign my[G#] heart, my [A#]body, my m[D#]ind
To [F]face what I've[C] done an[F]d do [G]my time
(Instrumental Bridge)
It is simply double time what you have been playing.
