That Western Skyline Dawes
The Key for the version I have is Bb
The [cb]Bb[/cb]] [cb]F11[/cb]] [cb]Eb[/cb]] [cb]Bb[/cb]] just repeats in the
verses (I didn't bother typing it out each time)
I play the Bb as an E-shaped bar chord with the root at the 6th fret, and I play the Eb
as an A-shape with a root at the 6th. (the F in the OOO's section is also an A-shape bar chord)
MOST importantly, the chord I'm calling F11 is played :
E--X
[A--7]D--8
[G--7]B--8
E--X
[cb]Bb[/cb]]Oh, Lou- I'd like to [cb]F11[/cb]]let you know... [cb]Eb[/cb]]that I do
not feel [cb]Bb[/cb]]welcome
All the birds, the trees, the [F11]falling snow, [Eb]no they were not made for [cb]Bb[/cb]]me
And though this is where her heart resides... we met in California
She saw cities, promise reaching through my eyes, and she turned her self away
[cb]Eb[/cb]]Well how I curse that western [cb]Bb[/cb]]skyline
[cb]Eb[/cb]]And yet I thanked it for my [cb]Bb[/cb]]start
[cb]Eb[/cb]]Oh Lou, though my [cb]Bb[/cb]]dreams did [cb]Eb[/cb]]not come
[cb]F11[/cb]]true... [cb]Eb[/cb]]no they only came a[cb]Bb[/cb]]part
So I followed her here to Birmingham... where the soil is so much richer
And though my aching pride might guide my hand, she did not ask for me to come
So I wait for her all through the day, as if I wait for her surrender
And every time I get her to look my way, she says I'm not where I belong
But I watch her father preach on Sundays
And all the hymnals of my heart
But oh Lou, no my dreams did not come true; no they only came apart
[cb]Dm[/cb]]Ohhhh, [cb]Bb[/cb]]oh [cb]F[/cb]]oh [cb]Bb[/cb]]oh [cb]Eb[/cb]]oh
[cb]Dm[/cb]]Ohhhh, [cb]Bb[/cb]]oh [cb]F[/cb]]oh [cb]Bb[/cb]]oh [cb]F[/cb]]oh
[cb]Dm[/cb]]Ohhhh, [cb]Bb[/cb]]oh [cb]F[/cb]]oh [cb]Bb[/cb]]oh [cb]Eb[/cb]]oh
[cb]Dm[/cb]]Ohhhh, [cb]Bb[/cb]]oh [cb]F[/cb]]oh [cb]Bb[/cb]]oh [cb]F[/cb]]oh
All the snow fall this time of year, it's not what Birmingham is used to
I get the feeling that I brought it here, and now I'm taking it away
But let's share one more drink together
Before I go reload my car
An oh, Lou no my dreams did not come true- no they only came apart
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
Take me home...
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
