Capo 1st fret
Dropped
(4) x20230
(6) x30230
Intro
WHEN I'M COLD AND ALONE ALL I WANT IS MY FREEDOM,
AND A SUDDEN GUST OF GRAVITY I STOP WAILING AND KICKING
JUST TO LET THIS WATER COVER ME
COVER ME
ONLY IF I REST MY ARMS, REST MY MIND YOU'LL OVERCOME ME AND
SWELL UP AROUND ME
WITH MY FIGHTING SO VAIN WITH MY VANITY SO FOUGHT,
I'M ROLLING OVER
Chorus
'CAUSE IN JUST THE SAME WAY
THAT THE STREAM BECOMES SWOLLEN
SWOLLEN WITH COLD UP OVER THE GROUND
WHEN MY HEART DRAWS CLOSE
TO THE CLOSE OF AUTUMN
YOUR LOVE ABOUNDS
Verse 2
ALL THE TIME I'M THINKING
WONDERING HOW WOULD IT BE
TO BREATH IN DEEP
GUESS I NEED TO BE CAREFUL
WHEN I ASK FOR A DRINK
JUST MIGHT GET WHAT I ASK FOR
AND I KNOW JUST WHAT YOU'D SAY TO ME
THAT'S WHY I DON'T ASK YOU
WHAT WOULD I ASK YOU?
LIKE A BULL-HEADED BOY THESE DAYS
CRYING "MY TOY'S GONE"
YOU'RE SHINY AND NEW
Chorus
'CAUSE IN JUST THE SAME WAY
THAT THE STREAM BECOMES SWOLLEN
SWOLLEN WITH COLD UP OVER THE GROUND
WHEN MY HEART DRAWS CLOSE
TO THE CLOSE OF AUTUMN
YOUR LOVE ABOUNDS
Verse 3
GUESS I'LL DROP MY ANGER HERE
BEFORE I FLOAT AWAY
AND THE CHAINS AROUND ME
AN AWFUL LOT OF TALKING
I DON'T LEAVE YOU MUCH TO SAY
YOU DIDN'T EVER LEAVE ME
AND MY GREATEST FEAR
WAS YOU'D LEAVE ME HERE
A LONG TIME BACK MY FEET
COULD TOUCH THE BOTTOM
2. Not The Land
/ 035200
Intro
Verse 1
SO MANY MILES BEHIND, STILL I DRIVE, PEDAL DOWN
OFF THE MAP HOURS BACK, IT'S BENEATH THE SEAT, I THINK
WITH TWO PENNIES AND A MATCH AND SOMETHING ELSE, I CAN'T REMEMBER
BUT IN THE TIME THAT IT WOULD TAKE TO FISH IT OUT, I'LL BE ANOTHER MILE GONE
AND I FEEL SO WRONG,
TRYING TO FEEL RIGHT
IN LIGHT OF ALL THE THINGS I'VE PASSED,
YOU'D THINK THAT I HAVE LEARNED
Chorus 1
THIS IS NOT THE LAND WAS PROMISED ME
EVEN AS FAR AS MY EYES CAN SEE
I'M SO WOUND UP LORD I CAN'T EVEN BREATH
I DON'T WANT WORDS, I JUST WANT SOME PEACE
SOME PEACE,
SOME PEACE
Verse 2
IT SEEMS I'VE MISPLACED MY FAITH,
IT'S ELEVEN-TWELVE AND NOTHING'S CHANGED
WELL NOTHING EXCEPT THE CHANNEL I'M AFRAID,
AND THE NUMBER THERE, NO IT'S THE SAME
OH THIS MUST BE THE SAVIOR OF THE MONTH,
AND WHAT I MUST HAVE, WHERE'S THE NIGHT GONE?
'CAUSE I'M SO TIRED AND OUT OF SHAPE,
YOU'VE GOTTA GET ME UP, BUT I CAN'T GET UP TODAY
'CAUSE IT'S BEEN SO LONG,
SINCE I'VE FELT RIGHT
ALL THE ROTE, REHEARSAL, PROOF
YOU'D THINK THAT I'D HAVE LEARNED
Chorus 1
THIS IS NOT THE LAND WAS PROMISED ME
EVEN AS FAR AS MY EYES CAN SEE
I'M SO WOUND UP LORD I CAN'T EVEN BREATH
I DON'T WANT WORDS, I JUST WANT SOME PEACE
SOME PEACE,
SOME PEACE
Guitar solo
Bridge
BREAK ME, BREAK ME, BREAK ME, BREAK ME, BREAK ME, BREAK ME
Chorus 2
THIS IS NOT THE LAND WAS PROMISED ME
GOTTA GET OUT OF BED, GET SOMETHING TO READ
I GOTTA FEED MY BROTHER, NOT MY EYES
IF NOT, THEN I'LL BE ALL I DESPISE
Chorus 1
THIS IS NOT THE LAND WAS PROMISED ME
EVEN AS FAR AS MY EYES CAN SEE
I'M SO WOUND UP LORD I CAN'T EVEN BREATH
I DON'T WANT WORDS, I JUST WANT SOME PEACE
SOME PEACE,
SOME PEACE.
3. April Showers
Clean Guitar
Intro
(Play twice)
Verse 1
Like April Showers on the slick cement
When I consider how our light is spent
Keeping the candles inside the cathedral
Hold on tight, Don't go into the night
So full of evil
Chorus
Rain rain don't go away
We need you this dry and dusty day
Rain rain don't go away
Though some may say please go away
Solo
I tried to break it up into sections where you can hear a "pause". listen to the cd, you'll
see what i mean.
Note on solo
2 things about this. 1st, it is my interpretation, so the fingerings
might be different than Derek's, but it sounds the exact same, i checked several times.
2nd, i play solo guitar, so i have added come chord inversions where usually cliff would
play, to fill it out. so sometimes there is _more_ here than on the CD. as always, mail
me if you are lost.
Verse 2
(Same as Verse 1)
Like the April Showers on the slick cement
And the roads once straight have now become so bent
Weaving through the trees of vain security
Rounding round the hard rocks of hard morality
Cadd9 G D (This time the Cadd9 G after verse is played only once)
Chorus
See above)
(Intro Lick is played ONCE)
Bridge
And the sacred cows
Feed on the green
While the least of these
Barre- (10th fret)
Are dying on the streets
And they're crying...
Chorus

Outro
Pick through -- slowly (ritard)

4. I Just Don't Want Coffee
5. Forget What You Know
Cliff: Clean Guitar (playing in E)
Intro
(Derek only; Cliff does not play)
Verse 1
hE hAsus2
My friend why do you whip yourself
hE hAsus2
With the leather of your life
hE hAsus2 C#m
Why do your memories build like
hE hAsus2
Poison in your mind
Bridge 1
You're re-running the mistakes (of your mind)
In the theater of your mind
Hoping that there'll be
A happily ever after this time
Chrous 1:
open-
Let go
open-
Let go
open-
Let go
open-
And forget what you know
Verse 2
(Same as Verse 1)
You fear you've walked too far
In the hemlock forest and you are lost
But what error could you invent
With more power than the cross
Chorus 2
open-
Let go
open- open-
Your sin is not an axe
Let go
open- open- open-
That can fell the sacred tree
open-
Let go
open- open-
Your regret is not a net
Let go
open- open- open-
That can dredge the forgetting sea
(Solo) Play verse chords over it: hE hAsus2 C#m A
Bridge 2
(Same as Bridge 1 above)
Play Chorus 1, then Chorus 2 until out...
Play verse riff and then stop as Derek, then cajon drums lead out.
Intro
This is _fast_ and is built around a Dsus2 chord. Practice,
practice, practice... it is played through all the verses also.
This is repeated about a million times, i didn't even try to count.
It doesn't change until the bridge
Verse 1
Play intro riff
Bridge
(These changes are along with Cliff's... finally, an easy part!)
( )
Chorus 1
(Changes at same time with Cliff)
Verse 2
Go back to playing intro riff
Chorus 2
(Changes at same time as Cliff's)
(Solo)
Bridge 2
Same as Bridge 1, see above)
Chorus 2
(Same changes as Cliff's)
Play Chorus 1, then Chorus 2 through
Outro
Intro riff over cajon drums, end on strummed Dsus2 chord
Chord Signatures:
Cliff: (clean)
hE hAsus2 open- open-
6. Another Ten Miles
Intro
Just repeat this over and over.
The best way to finger this:
2nd string: 1st finger
3rd string: 2nd finger
4th string: 3rd finger
5th string: 4th finger
6th string: loop thumb over
It will take time to get used to pulling that 3rd finger up, just keep
practicing. It will come.
Verse 1
The changes are really fast, so I'm not gonna put chords over words.
I will put the part, it is only 4 strums, and it is just repeated over
and over. Work on playing it muted, it sounds better. Also, in the middle
of each verse, one riff of the intro is thrown in. It is obvious when you
listen to the record.
The best fingering for these:
First one, the one like a G:
1st string: 4th finger
2nd string: 3rd finger
6th string: 2nd finger, also muting 5th string
3rd string: (the hammer) 1st string
I don't see what you see in me
I'm just flesh and bone
Many hours at the carrousel,
Postcards from far from home
Sometimes I feel as useless
as my empty words, old
president's dogs, clean paws,
no dirt-
What do these words mean?
Sometimes I just don't know.
Sometimes I just can't see
where it is I go- I waste
my whole day thinking over
things I've said and avoiding myself
like the plague in my head
Bridge 1
I know that you see me and I know
You're about me, that's why You
let me roam
Chorus
Just play the intro part over and over...
Another 10 Miles...
(Sax solo)
Verse 2
(Same as verse 1, see above)
Where does this all lead, and
why must I follow it?
Nothing is black and white,
(even me, I must admit).
I jot down the facts and work
on consistency, but open up the
closet door; it's George, and
the cat, and me.
My shifting eyes like sands
cannot focus on the void,
concentration still,
"Get thee behind me, Freud."
I'm grasping at straws and
the bale is almost gone;
the fire's grown much too dim,
nights grow much too long-
Bridge 1
Same as above)
Chorus
Same as above)
Bridge 2
I am holding things Yours, not mine
while I should cling to You like a
cow beneath the light of a highway sign.
(Percussion and Sax solo)
Bridge 1
Same as above)
