--Capo on fret 4--
[Intro]
Chord D the whole time for the intro
With tab on 6th string going from normal D (2nd fret) for three strums,
To 3rd fret for 2 strums,
Back to 2nd fret for another only one,
then 0 for only two strums.
Just keep doing that for every D chord in the verses. You should be able to hear it in the song.
[Verse 1]
D
I remember to this day
G A D
The bright red Georgia clay
D
And how it stuck to the tires
A
After the summer rain
D
Will power made that old car go
G A D
A woman's mind told me that so
D
Oh how I wish
C
We were back on the road again
[ G-G-G-G-G--A ] x2 (One strum for each cord)
[Chorus]
G A D
Me and you and a dog named boo
G A D
Travellin' and livin' off the land
G A D
Me and you and a dog named boo
C G D
How I love being a free man
[Verse 2]
D
I can still recall
G A D
The wheat fields of St. Paul
D
And the morning we got caught
D A
Robbing from an old hen
D
Old McDonald he made us work
G A D
But then he paid us for what it was worth
D
Another tank of gas
C
And back on the road again
[ G-G-G-G-G--A ](One strum for each cord)
[[Chorus]]
D
I'll never forget the day
G A
We motored stately into big L.A.
D
The lights of the city put settlin'
A
Down in my brain
D
Though it's only been a month or so
G A D
That old car's buggin' us to go
D C
We've gotta get away and get back on
The road again
[ G-G-G-G-G--A ](One strum for each cord)
[[Chorus]]
Keep playing chorus and fade, or about 3 times.
