Dropped D (DADGBE)
I'll never be your beast of burden
My back is broad but it's a hurting
All I want is for you to make love to me
I'll never be your beast of burden
I've walked for miles, my feet are hurting
All I want is for you to make love to me
Am I hard enough Am I rough enough Am I rich enough
I'm not too blind to see
I'll never be your beast of burden
So let's go home and draw the curtains
Music on the radio
Come on baby, make sweet love to me
Am I hard enough Am I rough enough Am I rich enough
I'm not too blind to see...oh little sister
Pretty, pretty, pretty girl
You're such a pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty girl
Pretty, pretty such a pretty, pretty, pretty girl
Come on, baby please, please, please
I'll tell ya
You can put me out on the street
Put me out with no shoes on my feet
But put me out, put me out, put me out... out of misery
All your sickness I can suck it up
Throw it all at me
I can shrug it off
There's one thing, baby, I don't understand
You keep telling me I ain't your kind of man
Ain't I rough enough
Ain't I tough enough
Ain't I rich enough
In love enough
Ooh Ooh please
repeat first verse
end:
I don't need no beast of burden
I need no fussing, I need no nursing
Never, never, never, never, never, never, never be...

Crazy Mary
Victoria Williams
She lived on a curve in the road
In an old tar paper shack
On the south side of the town on the wrong side of the tracks
Sometimes on the way in to town
We say 'Mama, can we stop and give her a ride?'
Sometimes we did, but her hands flew from her side
Wild eye... Crazy... Mary
Down a long dirt road, past the Parson's place
Their old blue car, we used to race
Little country store, with a sign tagged to the side
Said 'NO L-O-I-T--R-I-N- ALLOWED'
Underneath that sign allows congregated quite a crowd
Take a bottle drink it down, pass it around (drink it down)
Take a bottle drink it down, drink,
(pass it around) pass it around (pass it around)
Take a bottle drink it down, pass it, pass it a, pass it a-around
One night thunder cracked, Mercy backed outside her windowsile
Dreamed I was flying high above the trees, over the hills
Looked down into the house of Mary
Terrible thought(?), newspaper covered walls
and Mary rising up above it all...
ah... ah...
Next morning on the way into town,
Saw some skid marks and followed them around
over the curb through the fields into the house of Mary
??????????????????????????????????????????????????
That what you fear the most will meet you half way
??????????????????????????????????????????????????
That what you fear the most will meet you half way
Take a bottle drink it down, pass it around (drink it down)
Take a bottle drink it down, pass it a, pass it around
Take a bottle drink it down, pass it a, pass it a, pass it a-around

(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay
Otis Redding & Steve Cropper
Verse 1
Sittin' in the mornin' sun,
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' comes.
Watching the ships roll in,
then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah.
Chorus
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay,
watching the tide roll away.
Oo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay,
wastin' time.
Verse 2
I left my home in Georgia,
headed for the 'Frisco Bay.
I have nothing to live for,
it look like nothin's gonna come my way.
Chorus
So, I'm just gon' sit on the dock of the bay,
watching the tide roll away.
Oo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay,
wastin' time.

Look like nothing's gonna change.
Ev'rything still remains the same.
I can't do what ten people tell me to do,
so I guess I'll remain the same, yes.
Verse 3
I'm sittin' here restin' my bones,
and this loneliness won't leave me alone, yes.
Two thousand miles I roamed
just to make this-a dock my home.
Chorus
Now, I'm just gon' sit at the dock of the bay,
watching the tide roll away.
Oo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay,
wastin' time.

I Won't Back Down
Tom Petty
Well I won't back down, no I won't back down
You can stand me up at the gates of hell
But I won't back down
Gonna stand my ground, won't be turned around
And I'll keep this world from draggin' me down
Gonna stand my ground and I won't back down
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
hey I will stand my ground and I won't back down
Well I know what's right I got just one life
In a world that keep on pushin' me around
But I'll stand my ground and I won't back down
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
Hey I will stand my ground and I won't back down
And I won't back down

You can see my eyes and tell that I'm not lying

With a thousand smiles she gives to me free

Masters of War
Bob Dylan
Come you masters of war
You that build the big guns
You that build the death planes
You that build all the bombs
You that hide behind walls
You that hide behind desks
I just want you to know I can see through your masks
And the song just continues in that vein for the rest of the
Verses
You that never have done nothin' but build to destroy
You play with my world like it's your little toy
You put a gun in my hand then you hide from my eyes
Then you turn and run farther when the fast bullets fly
Like Judas of old you lie and deceive
A world war can't be won, and you want me to believe
But I see through your eyes and I see through your brain
Like I see through the water that runs down my drain
You that fasten all the triggers for the others to fire
Then you sit back and watch while the death count gets
higher
You hide in your mansions while the young people's blood
Flows out of their bodies and gets buried in the mud
You've thrown the worst fear that can ever be hurled
Fear to bring children into the world
For threatening my baby, unborn and unnamed
You ain't worth the blood that runs in your veins
How much do I know to talk out of turn
You might say that I'm young, you might say I'm unlearned
But there's one thing I know, though I'm younger than you
Even Jesus would never forgive what you do
Let me ask you one question: is your money that good?
Will it buy you forgiveness? Do you think that it could?
I think you will find when your death takes its toll
All the money you made won't ever buy back your soul
And I hope that you die and your death will come soon
I'll follow your casket through the pale afternoon
And I'll watch while you're lowered into your death bed
Then I'll stand over your grave till I'm sure that you're
dead

And the rivers shall open for the righteous (2x)
And the rivers shall open for the righteous, someday
I went walking, with my brother
And he wondered, oh, how I am

I am a patriot, and I love my country
:
And I ain't no communist, and I ain't no socialist
And I ain't no capitalist, and I ain't no imperialist
And I ain't no democrat, I sure ain't no republican either
I only know one party, and that is freedom, I am, I am, I am

Redemption Song
Bob Marley
Old Pirates, yes, they rob I.
Sold I to the merchant ships
minutes after they took I from the bottomless pit.
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the Almighty.
We forward in this generation triumphantly.
Chorus
Won't you help to sing these songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever had, redemption songs,
redemption songs.
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery,
None but ourselves can free our minds.
Have no fear for atomic energy,
'Cause none of them can stop the time.
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look?
Yes, some say it's just a part of it.
We've got to fulfill the book.

Rockin' in the Free World
Neil Young
Intro/Verse:
For the verses you basically need: Em, D and C
but the strumming pattern and fretting actually
involve a G. Here's how to strum the Em measure
(intro and verse alike):
-
(1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +)
DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP
B - $ $ - $ $ $
Meaning it is an Em chord for the whole measure,
play only the bass note (the E string) on the first
beat (indicated by the 'B' -from Bass- above), the '-' means don't
strum on the strings and a '$' means play the chord indicated
above (Em in this case).
The D and C measure is strummed as follows:
N N
- - - -
DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP
$ $ $ $ - $ $ $
Meaning play a D chord for the first beat then on the
down stroke of the second beat hit the strings without
any fretting (indicated by 'N' above), this would actually
sound as a G (especially that you're most likely to hit only
the D, G, B and E strings). Then directly play a C chord on
the up-stroke of the second beat (in fact you'd ready your fingers
for the C chord while hitting the "G chord"). The same trick is
done at the last up-stroke of the 4th beat where you, again, play the
open strings just before hitting the bass of the Em chord of the
following measure (as indicated in the Em measure).
Chorus
As for the chorus: it is G, D, C and Em which is easy to play:
The 3 measures of G D and C are the same:
-
DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP
$ - ($) $ - $ $ $
The ($) means optional. In fact you'd interleave all kinds of strumming
patterns here.
The last measure (4th) of each line in the chorus goes like this:
DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP
$ $ $ $ - $ $ $
Here you'd notice that in fact you'd naturally hammer on
the Em on the upstroke of the 2nd beat.
Between chorus and verses:
Basically 4 measures of A (interleaved with A7) anyways if you want
to get a flavor of how it is played (read I play it ;-):
1) 2)
- - - - -
DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP
$ - $ - $ $ $ $ - $ $ $ $ $ $ $
3) 4)
- - - - -
DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP DN UP
- $ $ $ $ $ $ $ - $ $ - $ - $ -
The second time the bridge is played a different pattern is used
but who cares (I'm tired of typing ;-).
Sounds complicated? not really.
