Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
This is a Cover of the Johnny Cash song that Father John Misty has done for the short
film "Johnny Cash - Out Among the Stars (With Brandon Flowers, Father John Misty &
Local Natives)" produced by La Blogotheque (you can check it on Youtube to get the feel
of the song.)
The lyrics of the songs are a bit different because the song is originally a duet and
not sung solo. I'm not putting any specific riffs that Father John Misty is doing in that
video. Try your own things, play around with the scale of C, check the strumming
pattern. The song is quite easy to play so it leaves plenty of room for immagination :)
If anyone can put the tab for the 2nd guitar with the slide in the comments, that'd be great.
These chords in the cover are played in this way but you'll get the same sound with the
regular chord forms:
C (Capo on 2)
332010
G (Capo on 2)
300033
F (Capo on 2)
x33210
edit: The Bdim chord is played like this (Capo on 2)
x2313x
Capo 2
Verse:
C
If I drove a truck
F
And you were a waitress
C
I ordered coffee
G
And you poured me some
F C
Then I'd stop by on my way somewhere later
And if we mud-wrestled
G C Bdim
I'd say that you won
Chorus:
C Em G
Ai-eeee-ay my baby, ride easy, ride high in the saddle all day
C F
If your loving is good
G C
Often easy
F G G7 C
I'd fall off the wagon and we'll..... ride away
C Em F Am G C
Verse:
F
If you were a pale winsome senorita
C G
And I a bull-fighter, way down in the sand
F C
While the band they kept on playing that Old Caso Dore
Would you throw me a flower
G C Bdim
While I take your hand?
Chorus 2:
C Em G
Ai-eeee-ay my baby, ride easy, ride high in the saddle all day
C F
If your loving is good
G C
Freaky easy
F G G7 C
I'd fall off the wagon and we'll..... well we'll ride away
C Em F Am G C
Verse:
If I ran the country
F
You my first lady
C G
Smoke cigarettes at the end of the day
F C
And spy on civilians and put brown folks in prison
C
If your dad's got some money
G C Bdim
I think I can run
Chorus 3:
C Em G
Ai-eeee-ay my baby, ride easy, ride high in the saddle all day
C F
If your loving is good

Frequent and easy

I'd fall off the wagon and we'll..... ride away
