MIDNIGHT'S GONE (from the Fearless CD – Mercury Records 2000)
by Terri Clark/Gary Burr
transcribed by kdale(Dale.Krysinski@hatchmott.com)11/20/01 rev. 2/18/03
CHORDS USED:
G = 320003
G5 = 320033
D = x00232
D2 = x00230 (Dsus2)
D4 = x00233 (Dsus4)
C = x32010
Em = 022000
Bm = 224432
Am = 002210
Notes:
1. Terri generally plays a G using the 1-2 fingers on the low E and A strings instead of the 2-3, as in the G5 chord
2. I'm not sure about the Am chord over "say" in the break – it might be a C or an Am7 (Am but leave the 3rd string open)
3. All of the G5 chords should be played with the top string muted,except those in the chorus, which should be played as shown.
4. Terri plays this by using her 3rd & 4th right hand fingers to pick out certain notes while using a pick on the bass notes. Listen to the CD close and you'll see what I mean. You can also play this pure fingerstyle.
5. E-mail me with any corrections or ideas – this isn't perfect!
6. Capo 1st fret to match the CD.
