Just Dropped In Kenny Rogers
[Notes: the guitars are so distorted it's hard to tell, but the chord
notated as Am7 might actually be A7#9 (54555x) - try both and see
which you think sounds more like the record. The bass is definitely
tuned below concert pitch (see the second break), and I suspect that
the distorted rhythm guitar is as well - try tuning to DGCFAD and
playing in Em/Fm/F#m. -- AWR]

[key cbange to Ebm]
I p[Ebm]ushed my soul in a [Ab/Eb]deep dark hole and then I [Ebm]followed it in
I found myself crawlin' out as I was c[Bbm7]rawlin' in
I got[Ebm] up so tight, I c[Gb]ouldn't unwind
