@SONG: * HANNAH JANE

(tabbed by randell@heinous.music.uiowa.edu)

Intro: G---Am---G---Am-D-G---Am---Bm---Cmaj7

G D

You've got your big girls

C D

Now you have your young ones too

Wonder if someday I can have them

The way I once had you

Em D

I remember your grin and remarks

Em D

We'd get drunk and go out after dark

C D

Searching for someone we could take home

G Am

You don't wanna be alone

G Am D

You don't wanna see the sun go down

G Am

You don't wanna open the door

D C D C

And see her go

One step and tomorrow comes

Two steps and she's off with someone

Three steps and it's all you know

Bm C

You'll be home, she'll be gone

(G-D-C-D)

So what are you gonna do about me?

I'll be there when you have no one else

Spotted the ocean in the south's holy land

I'll be there, be your friend

(Em-D thing)

Hold on strong, don't let go

There'll never be no one to take your place

So don't you wanna reach out and take my hand?

(chorus)

Solo: G-D-C-D thing, then Em-D thing

(chorus)

(repeat 2nd half of chorus)

@SONG: * HOLD MY HAND

(tabbed by Paul Hutchinson )

Intro:

|Bsus2 E | x4

Bsus2 E Bsus2 E

With a little love and some tenderness

Bsus2 E Bsus2 E etc

We'll walk upon the water, we'll rise above the mist

With a little peace, and some harmony

We'll take the world together, we'll take them by the hand

F# E* B

Cause, I got a hand for you, oh

F# E* B

Cause, I wanna run with you

Yesterday, I saw you standing there

Your head was heavy, your eyes were red, no comb had touched your hair

I said "Get up, and let me see you smile

We'll take a walk together, walk the road a while"

Cause, I got a hand for you - I got a hand for you

I wanna run with you - won't you let me run with you

B E* F#

Hold my hand - want you to hold my hand

B E* F#

Hold my hand - I'll take you to a place where you can be

B E* F#

Hold my hand - anything you wanna be, because

E*

I wanna love you the best that, the best that I can

See I was wasted, and I was wasting time

Till I thought about your problems, I thought about your crimes

Then I stood up, and then I screamed aloud

"Don't wanna be part of your problems, don't wanna be part of your crowd, no"

Cause, I gotta hand for you - I got a hand for you

I wanna run with you - won't you let me run with you

Hold my hand - want you to hold my hand

Hold my hand - I will take you to the promised land

Hold my hand - Maybe we can't change the world but,

I wanna love you, the best that, the best that I can

Solo: |Bsus2 E | x4

|F# E* |B | x2

Hold my hand - want you to hold my hand

Hold my hand - I'll take you to a place where you can be

Hold my hand - anything you wanna be cause

I, no lo lo, oh ho (!?)

Hold my hand - want you to hold my hand

Hold my hand - I will take you to the promised land

Hold my hand - Maybe we can't change the world but,

I wanna love you, the best that, the best that I can

@SONG: * LET HER CRY

(tabbed by randell@heinous.music.uiowa.edu)

G D

She sits alone by a lamppost

C (or Csus9) G

Trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind

She says Dad's the one I love the most

But Stipe's not far behind

She never let's me in

Only tells me where she's been

When she's had too much to drink

I say that I don't care

I just run my hands through her dark hair

Then I pray to God you gotta help me fly away

And just...

C

Let her cry

G

If the tears fall down like rain

C

Let her sing

Em G D

If it eases all her pain

C

Let her go

G

Let her walk right out on me

D

And if the sun comes up tomorrow

C G

Let her be, let her be

This morning I woke up alone

Found a note standing by the phone

Saying, "Baby, maybe I'll be back someday"

I wanted to look for you

You walked in I didn't know just what I should do

So I sat back down and had a beer and felt sorry for myself

Saying...

(chorus)

(solo - 8 bars over verse)

(chorus)

Last night I tried to leave

Cried so much I could not believe

She was the same girl I fell in love with long ago

She went in the back to get high

And I sat down on my couch and cried

Yelling "Oh mama, please help me

Won't you hold my hand"

And...

(chorus) x 2

@SONG: * ONLY WANNA BE WITH YOU

(tabbed by Steve Vetter

and Paul Hutchinson )

NB Capo 2nd fret

Intro: |E Aadd6 |E Aadd6 |E Aadd6 |Bsus4 |

|E Aadd6 |E Aadd6 |E Aadd6 |E Aadd6 |

E Aadd6 E Aadd6

You and me, we come from different worlds

E Aadd6 E Aadd6

You like to laugh at me when I look at other girls

Sometimes you're crazy and you wonder why

I'm such a baby, cause the dolphins make me cry

F#m7sus A

Well there's nothing I can do

E Aadd6 E Aadd6

I've been looking for a girl like you *

You look at me, you got nothing left to say

I'm gonna pout at you until I get my way

I won't dance, you won't sing

I just want to love you, but you want to wear my ring

But there's nothing I can do

I only wanna be with you *

A Bsus

You can call me a fool

E etc

I only wanna be with you

Put on a little Dylan** sitting on a fence

I say that line has made you ask me what it meant by it

Said I shot a man named Grey, took his wife to Italy

She inherited a million bucks and when she died it came to me

I can't help it if I'm lucky, I only wanna be with you *

Ain't Bobby so cool, I only wanna be with you

Solo: (Same chords as verse)

Well I'm tangled up in blue, I only wanna be with you *

You can call me a fool, I only wanna be with you

Sometimes I wonder if it'll ever end

you get so mad at me when I go out with my friends

Sometimes you're crazy and you wonder why

I'm such a baby, yeah, the dolphins make me cry

But there's nothing I can do - I only wanna be with you *

You can call me a fool, I only wanna be with you *

A Bsus

Yeah I'm tangled up in blue, I only wanna be with you *

I only wanna be with you *

I only wanna be with you *

I only wanna be with you *

Chords: E-022100 Aadd6-x04200 Bsus-x24400 F#m7sus-244200 A-x02220

NB: Note that the bass guitar treats the Aadd6 chords as B

...............

**Dylan as in Bob whose borrowed line from Idiot Wind appears in this

song. They credit Bob in the liner notes for the first album Kootchypop.

They also refer to Tangled up in Blue from the same album. Curiously enough,

they also are probably reffering to Dillon Fence a band from the same area,

which has had some regional success. And you thought you were just getting

a CRD file

;-) -sjv

................

There's a ton of guitars on this song (maybe a mandolin too) and it's

very difficult to audibly separate them. Just strum along. However, there is

a fill used at the points of the song marked with an asterisk *:

+ + + + + + + +

|-----------------|-----------------|

|-----------------|-----------------|

|-----------------|-----------------|

|-------2---4---4-|/6-4-2-4---2-----|

|---2-4-----------|-----------------|

|-----------------|-----------------|

This is doubled an octave up - you can do this on one guitar with an octave

pedal or a pitch shifter set an octave up.

This is the solo. Note that for the first few bars, since it is played

close

to the capo, I've given fret positions relative to the capo.

+ + + + + + + +

|-4p0---7p0---2p0---7p0---4p0-----|-2p0---7p0---5p0---4p0---2p0-0---|

|-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0---|-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0---|

|---------------------------------|---------------------------------|

|---------------------------------|---------------------------------|

|---------------------------------|---------------------------------|

|---------------------------------|---------------------------------|

Play that again, and then go on to...

+ + + + + + + +

|-----------------|-----------------|

|-----------------|--5--7--9~~~~~~~~|

|/6--4------------|-----------------|

|-------6---4---4-|-6-/7-/9---------|

|-------------7---|-----------------|

|-----------------|-----------------|

Since the last 2 bars are played further up the neck, I've given the

actual

fret positions (ie relative to the nut)

(Hold bend)

+ + + + + + + +

|-------14-------------------------------|--------------------------------|

|----------------------------------------|--------------------------------|

13b15-----15r13-11---------11--11-13b15--|b15r13p11------------11~~~~~~~~-|
