Mud in Your Eye Nils Lofgren
Criticism is encouraged.
This is my first Lofgren tab that I?ve done. The Cadd9 chord and C chord at the end of
first 2 verses I?m not sure about, but it sounds good. The second half after the first
verses I obtained a part or two I couldn?t pick out from shinesilently.com. Criticism encouraged.
Enjoy.

song after that for the intro.
You used to leave your scent (GEDG)
On his whiskey soaked collar (GEDG)
You both would paint the town (EDBmE)
Drink up his very last dollar (GEDG)
And then you loved him for fun (EDEG)
And rode away when it was done (GEDG)
Now he?s confused and I know why (Cmaj7-C-Cadd9-D)
Ain?t that mud in your eye (GEDG)
(Sturm w/everything muted for the next lyric)
(Some of these lyrics towards the end of this verse are sang while playing the riffs,
that?s why it appears one riff to be left over at the end of this progression, starting at
realized you were no longer free?)
Ain?t like rain (GEDG)
Remember lively little Richard. (GEDG)
But his men were painting town (EDBmE)
You were in need of attention (GEDG)
So he thought he?d take you on down (EDEG)
And there you first saw me (GEDG)
And realized you were no longer free (Cmaj7-C-Cadd9-D)
Cuz true love good girls can?t deny (GEDG)
It comes and goes like mud in you?re eye. (Cmaj7-C-Cadd9-D)
(After that progression and the last lyric there comes another GEDG
And from here out chords are played during singing instead of prior)
[F]Sometimes a victim can run
[Am]But not when both have been ?von
[D-C-D]And I ain?t no stranger
I built you up to shoot you down
[C]Once you could thrill me
[Am]Now I?m the jury
[D]And you?ll be a cinch to convict
[Em-F#m-E-A]Your boy?s gonna make the great escape
[A-F#m-E-A]While your laid bare on the ground
[A-F#m-E-C#m-F#m]This vengeance had to and in crime
[F#m-A-F#m-E-A]I built you up and shoot you down
[A-F#m-E-F#m-E]You know I?m not usually that kind
[E-A-F#m-E-A]But you didn?t know he was a brother of mine
[A-Dmaj7]But I?ll just laugh if you cry
[E]Now ain?t that mud in your eye
[A-F#m-E-A]
