Elliott Smith - Dont Go Down guitar tab

Don't Go Now / Liberty Belle

by Elliott Smith

transcribed by Ian

I think this is similar to True Love in that its de-tuned a full step

and played with a capo on two, or at least it is in the Silverlake

show I think. So basically it translates as standard tuning. The

first F#m is just a kind of quiet, dissonant thing thats just a

decoration.

F#m F# B (B7 B6 B)*

I met a girl, a snowball in hell

Bm A/C# D E F F#m

She was as hard and as cracked as the Liberty Bell

F# B (B7 B6 B)

And I got her to come on and move in with me

Bm E A /B /C# C#

And I said I'll find a better place where we can spend e - ternity

D A/C# Bm

Don't go now, don't go now

E A D/A A D/A* C#

Stay with me, baby stay

Her mother called me a thief

And her dad was a total commander and chief

I fall in love with my love

But I knew the kind of worthlessness we have to raise above

Don't go now, don't go now

Stay with me, baby stay

Don't go now, don't go now

Stay with me, baby stay

She had a dream woke up in shock

She had seen her own body outlined in chalk

No fingerprints were found on the gun

And her ghost leaned down to kiss me with a message from the sun

Don't go now, don't go now

Stay with me, baby stay

Don't go now

Stay with me, baby stay

Don't go now

Stay with me, baby stay
