Neil Young

Neil Young - Albuquerque guitar chord

TITLE: ALBUQUERQUE

ALBUM: TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT

SUBMITTED BY: John Rosenfelder

CORRECTIONS BY: Wolfgang Deimel

INTRO TAB BY: Alan DerKazarian

(via HyperRust)

NOTES: (from Alan)

Neil drops the bottom E down to D (like in Harvest Moon).

This gives his first chord played a weird Em/D sound.

Believe it or not, I'm pretty sure the first Em bar of the song

has five beats to it (5/4, maybe 5/8), and that the second D bar

has three beats (3/4?). This repeats for the third and fourth

bars but then rights itself to 4/4 time for the rest of the song.

Bizarre for Neil, I agree, but count it out. I'm pretty sure it's

true.

Em D

Well they say that Santa Fe

Em D

is less than ninety miles away

Em G A

and i've got time to roll a number and rent a car

G Em D

Oh Al - bu querque

I've been flying down the road

and I've been starving to be alone

Independent from the sea that I've known

CHORUS

Instrumental Verse (harmonica solo) and Chorus (pedal steel solo)

So I'll stop where I can

Find some fried eggs and country ham

I'll find somewhere where they don't care who I am.

CHORUS
