Andersen Eric - Make It Last guitar tab

Here's a nice tune by Eric Andersen off his "Stages: The Lost Tracks" album.

Solo guitar accompaniment won't quite capture all the beauty of this one,

without the piano, mandolin, and nice harmonies by Shawn Colvin on

the actual recording.

MAKE IT LAST

(Eric Andersen)

Guitar: Capo III

Intro: G C G C F G C

verse 1:

C G C

It's 2 am and pitch black

F C

And I've got so far to go

F C

My hands are hangin' from the wheel

G F G

But my mind it only roams

C G C

The sun went down behind the hills

F D7

And the miles are draggin' past

C D7

This highway rolls forever

F G C

But I'm comin' home at last

Refrain:

C G

Make it last

F

I want to feel the mornin' come

C G

Make it last

F G

I want to see the mornin' sun

C

I want to fly

F

Like an angel in the wind

C G

Make it last

F G C

'til I'm in your arms again

verse 2: (same chords as verse 1)

By the highway is a diamond

Glowin' in the night

All along the dark horizon

First sign and crack of light

Up the road I see a hotel

Better pull in off the line

Tomorrow seems forever

But I'll make it home on time

Repeat refrain.

Am C

Ridin' 'neath the shotgun moon

F Dm7

The clouds watch from above

C G

The things we do to keep this life

C F

The things we do for love

Am C

The chain they call the highway

F Dm7

Can nail you like a stone

C G

What I wouldn't do to have one hour

F G C

To be with you alone

Repeat refrain.

Up ahead I see a woman

I can see her silhouette

It's 4 am, the lights are out

I can see the empty bed

She's starin' out the window

She puts out a cigarette

The night rolls on forever

Like the prairies in the West

Repeat refrain.
