Artist: Band
Song: Weight


Take A Load Off
By Marshall Tucker Band
Tabbed by Ryan Taylor

I was very surprised that there wasn't already a tab for this on the site.
This tab when played with the song sounds 100% correct, you just have to figure out the 
pattern by listening to the record.

Intro
E -----------------5-----------------------------------------|
B -----5---5---5h7----5h7-5---5------3---3---3-------2-2-2---|
G -----6---6---6------6---6---6------2h4-4---2-------2-4-2---|
D -----------------------------------0---0---0-----0-------4-|
A -----------------------------------------------------------|
E -----------------------------------------------------------|

(Strum Chords)
    A                          C#m              D
Verse           I pulled into nazareth     was feelin' bout half past dead
E --0-0---0-0-0----------------4----------------2-------------------|
B --2-2---2-3-2----------------5----------------3-------------------|
G --2-2---2-2-2----------------6----------------2-------------------|
D --2-2---2-2-2----------------6----------------0-------------------|
A --0-0---0-0-0----------------4----------------0-------------------|
E ------------------------------------------------------------------|

The verse repeats those three chords until the chorus


Chorus
    A         E        D
       Take a load off Annie
E --0---------0--------2-----|
B --2---------0--------3-----|
G --2---------1--------2-----|
D --2---------2--------0-----|
A --0---------2--------0-----|
E ------------0--------------|(3x)

On the 3rd time let the D chord ring

Bridge(right after "put the load right on me")
    A          D
E --0----------2----------|
B --2----------3----------|
G --2----------2----------|
D --2----------0----------|
A --0----------0----------|
E ------------------------|
