The Replacements

This was originally posted by Francois Rousseau last week. Merci.

Skyway

Tricky fingerpicking:

To get the feeling try playing the D chord and alternate the way you

play the last string between the 2nd fret (as in a D) and the open

string (D9). Do the same with the GM7 chord (alternate on the little

string between the second fret and the open string). I fingerpick the

whole song and it sounds ok.

For the D: easy to play for everybody...

1 E: 2 (alternate with open string (e))

2 B: 3

3 G: 2

4 D: 0

5 A: 0

6 E: X

For the GM7: hard to play for beginners...

1 E: 2 (alternate with open string (e))

2 B: 0

3 G: 0

4 D: 0

5 A: 2

6 E: 3

Skyway

(The Replacements)

Capo 3rd fret

intro: D GM7 D GM7

D

You take the Skyway

GM7 D

High above the busy little one way

GM7 Em

In my stupid automn gloves at night a lie awake

A7

Wanderin' if I'll sleep

Em A7

Wanderin' if we'll meet out in the street

D

To take the Skyway

GM7 D

It don't move at all like a subway

GM7 Em

It's got bums when it's cold like any other place

A7

It's warm up inside

Em A7

Sittin' down and waitin' for a ride

GM7

Beneath the Skyway

Em C A7 GM7 (or G) Em C A7

D

Oh then one day

G D

I saw you walkin' down that little one way

GM7 D

Where the place I catch my ride most everyday

Em A7

They weren't a dawn thing I could do or say

GM7 D

Up in the Skyway

GM7 D GM7 D

Skyway Skyway
