The only chord for the verse is D7 really. at the end of each line, play an improv on
d chord,
particularly after "he used to pick up my guitar" - live, neil extends this into a solo
mid-verse.
You can play the D7 chord like this:
e|----| e|----| B|----| B|-1--| G|-2--| G|-2--| D|-0--| OR D|-0--| A|-3--| A|-0--| C|-2--| C|-2--|
... with fills like these - both sound good:
e|--------------------------| e|--0--0-------------| B|--------------------------| B|--1--1----1--3-----| G|--------------------------| G|--2--2----2--2-----| D|--------------------------| OR maybe D|--0-------0--0-----| A|--------------------------| A|--0----------0-----| C|--/7-7--9--/7--7--5--0--2-| C|--2----------2-----|
Listen to the recording to get a feel. I think this could be performed live just with
one
guitar, as the song is quite sparse and slow. Make it your own!
Here are the chords, just to help:
[D]Tonight's the [C]night, [D]tonight's the [C]night,
[D]tonight's the [C]night, [D]tonight's the [C]night,
[D7]Bruce Berry was a workin' man;
[D7]He used to load that Econoline Van.
[D7]A sparkle was in his eyes,
[D7]but his life was in his hand.
[D7]Well late at night when the people were gone
[D7]he used to pick up my guitar
[D7]and sing a song in a shaky voice
[D7]that was real as the day was long.
[D]Tonight's the [C]night, [D]tonight's the [C]night,
[D]tonight's the [C]night, [D]tonight's the [C]night,
A couple of other verses follow, with same chords.
| / slide up
| slide down
| h hammer-on
| p pull-off
| ~ vibrato
| + harmonic
| x Mute note
