Take Me Home The Jakes
Tabbed by Ann Hogan
Hello, all.
There were a few errors in the previous submission of this tab, so I posted
my corrected version of it.
In this song, some of the chords are the same, just with different
fingerings, so I marked the different ones with an asterisk (*).

[Dmaj7]Sweetn[Bm]ess,
[Bm]On the rips of your [Aadd9]old [A]dress.
[Dmaj7]Twilig[Bm]ht
[Bm]Passed the banks of the [Aadd9]warm [A]fire.
[Dmaj7]Whispers in the dark, they hit the trees[Bm]
[Aadd9]And they run in to your heart to find mamas sleeves.[A]
[Dmaj7]Daddy aint awake, and daylights gone.[Bm]
[Aadd9]Afraid of the dark, you think of mamas b[A]ones.
[E7]Cause I cant live like this

Because I heard your mama cry.

Behind the door Im listening;
A Dmaj7*
She said shes gonna fly.
Dmaj7* E7* Riff
With words your mouth shes kissing.
[E7]And she said, "[Amaj7]Woah, oh, oh, [Dmaj7]child,[Bm]

Your back is straight;

Dont let hurt curve it that way."

[Bm]On the ribs of your [Aadd9]bare [A]chest.
[Dmaj7]Twilig[Bm]ht
[Bm]On the roof of that [Aadd9]snowy [A]night.
[Dmaj7]You ran outside without your boots on.[Bm]
[Aadd9]You could be lost, youd find yourself at home[A]
[Dmaj7]Where mamas house is up on the sunrise.[Bm]
[Aadd9]Sweet good God, just take me by [A]surprise.
[E7]Cause I cant live like this,

Because I heard your mama cry.

But I said, "Mama, please take me home;
Cause I cant [Amaj7]stand being al[Dmaj7]one[Bm]
Cause the [E7]pain is shooting down my spi[Dmaj7]ne aga[Bm]in."
