Chords, Guitar Tablature & Lyrics
____________________________________________________________________________________
I think that there are two electric guitars and one acoustic guitar in this one. I'm going to show you the chords and a tip or two - you can take it from there. Be sure to visit my tab page in order to understand how I write tablature on the web.
By the way, I interpreted these chords from listening to the recording - I did not use any other written music as an aid in writing the tab presented on this page. If you think that I have made a mistake, please let me know about it by dropping me a quick note.

THE CHORDS: (intro lick) Ab Db (PIANO & GUITAR INTRO) Db Gb last night, while you were far away Ab Db I thought I saw the devil and heard him say Db Gb I've come to take away your soul Ab Db to a place where you can't play no rock-n-roll Db Gb well, I've got dreams that wake me in the night Ab gonna turn my hair to gray, gonna make me fade away, Db gonna make me see a little light Db Gb a man once told me with a smile Ab Db lock all your troubles in a fire Db Gb but then someone showed up with the key Ab Db you know you can't never hide what you can't see Db Gb and I've got dreams that wake me in the night Ab gonna turn my hair to gray, gonna make me fade away, Db gonna make me see a little light Db Gb dreams that wake me in the night Ab cryin' out for heaven sake, gonna make me lay awake, Db gonna make me see a little light Db Gb Ab Db (SLIDE SOLO) Db Gb pretty girls with curly hair Ab Db I sometimes think that I should take my share Db Gb but that special one that means so much Ab Db I just don't want to lose her special touch Db Gb and I've got dreams that wake me in the night Ab gonna turn my hair turn to gray, gonna make me fade away, Db gonna make me see the light Db Gb dreams that wake me in the night Ab cryin' out for heaven sake gonna make me lay awake, Db gonna make me see a little light Ab Db Gb Ab Db Ab Db gonna make me see a little liiiiiight

TIPS
The intro lick is (string/fret) 6/4, 5/4, 5/3, 6/6 - play the 6/4 with your second finger and the rest falls in place. Play the first note rather quickly. The notes in between the Db chord symbols are (string/fret) 6/4, 6/6, 6/8. I had to tune my guitar slightly higher to be in tune with the recording.
I hope you enjoyed playing this one.
Remember, that by learning this song, you are helping to preserve the music of the Ozark Mountain Daredevils!
