Mahal Taj - Take A Giant Step guitar chord

TAKE A GIANT STEP- Taj Mahal

Drop E down to D (DADGBE)

D

Though you failed at love and lost

D/C

And sorrow's turned your heart to frost

D/B D

I will mend your heart again

Remember the feeling as a child

When you woke up and morning smiled

Its time its time its time you felt like that again

CHORUS:

D C D C

There is just no percentage in remembering the past

D C G B

Its time you learned to live again and love at last

G D

Come with me leave your yesterday your yesterday behind

G D

And take a giant step outside your mind

You stare at me with disbelief

You say for you there's no relief

But girl I swear it won't do you no harm

Don't sit there in your lonely room

Just looking back inside that gloom

Mama that's not were you belong

Come with me I'll take you where the taste of life is green

N' Everyday everyday hold on woman just got to be seen

Come with me leave your yesterday your yesterday behind

And take a giant step outside your mind

FIRST VERSE, CHORUS

NOTE: This song really needs two guitars to give it justice, but I've

worked it out here for one.

For the verse chords, there is a little riff to play on each, on

the first string. Something like this:

E ---2-0h2-3-2-0-2---2-0h2-3-2-0-2---2-0h2-3-2-0-2----

B ---3-3---3-3-3-3---3-3---3-3-3-3---3-3---3-3-3-3----

G ---2-2---2-2-2-2---0-0---0-0-0-0---0-0---0-0-0-0----
