PASSIONATE KISSES (Lucinda Williams)
------------------------------------
* These chords match Mary-Chapin Carpenter's cover version.
* Lucinda Williams' recording of this song is in E, so you'd have to put
a capo at the fourth fret to match the recording if you use these chords.
* Mary-Chapin Carpenter's recording is in D, and I know she plays it in
C majorC with a capo at the second fret.
* In the instrumental bits, I put bar lines (|) to separate measures;
everywhere else in the song, one chord is one measure.
* The rhythm guitar doesn't actually play all those chords in the intro,
but it sounds neat. (It actually plays just C majorC G+G A minorAm F.)
* Mix up some (9)'s with the C's and F's.

[repeat and fade]
Someone met John Jenning's (MCC's guitarist) after a concert and asked
him how he plays this song in concert; he wrote it down in standard musical
notation, someone sent it to me, and I converted it to tablature. (But
there's no guarantee that this is where John Jennings puts his fingers.)
The ">" marks are accents.
[Note that this is NOT the recorded version; this is how Jennings plays it
on stage with a smaller band. The recorded version has more than one
electric guitar.]
