THESE OLD WHEELS
Capo IV

G: 320000
C: 032010 or 332010
F#?: 200230
Em: 022000

Intro: Play G chord, but hammer on the 3 from an open E. Listen to recording. He
also hammers and pull offs a 1 on the B string


G Walk-up C
Silence is golden some may say, some may say
C G F#?
I say silence is an aimless time to kill
Em F# C
Its a restless feeling pounding on my brain both night and day
G F# G
and these old wheels of mine spin louder as it builds

Repeat for rest of song

Yes the sky would surely fall if my dear eardrum did fail
to beat a single time, in time or out
Some may make it out alright and some may have never known
but these old wheels spin far too loud, far too loud

For I love to hear a chorus from the morning bird choir
and the sounds of coffee boiling on the pot
How I love to hear I love you in a dry morning tone
And just assume that if I can’t these wheels would stop

Yes happy is the day I lay my poor head down
with neither trial nor trouble to compete
with the chirp of summer crickets nor a tree frog’s croak
And these old wheels slow down enough so that I may sleep

Solo is just the chord progression again

Silence is golden some may say, some may say
I say silence is an aimless time to kill
It’s a restless feeling pounding on my brain both night and day
and these old wheels of mine spin louder as it builds
