Tuesday Night tab by Sheryl Crow

RUN, BABY, RUN
--------------

        E                                           G#m
She was born in November 1963 - the day that Aldous Huxley died
F#m
  And her mama believed that every man could be free
/G#    A7
So her mama got high, high, high
/B      C7
And her daddy marched on Birmingham singing mighty protest songs
Am7                                                         /G
  And he pictured all the places where he knew that she'd belong
       F                               Bb                             B
But he failed and taught her young the only thing she'd need to carry on
   NC
He taught her how to

E                 C#m               G#m    B
Run baby run baby run baby run baby run
E                 C#m               G#m    B
Run baby run baby run baby run baby run
         A7                             C7
Past the arms of the familiar and their talk of better days
       A7                                 C7                      D     B
To the comfort of the strangers, slipping out before they say "so long"
              E
Baby loves to run

She counts out all her money in the taxi on the way to meet her plane
And stares hopeful out the window
at the workers fighting through the pouring rain
She's searching through the stations for an unfamiliar song
And she's thinking 'bout all the places where she knows she still belongs
And she smiles the secret smile because she knows exactly how to carry on

So run baby run baby run baby run baby run
Run baby run baby run baby run baby run
From the old familiar faces and their old familiar ways
To the comfort of the strangers, slipping out before they say "so long"
Baby loves to run

 (Same chords as first half of verse)

She's searching through the stations for an unfamiliar song
And she pictures all the places where she knows she still belongs
And she smiles the secret smile that shows she knows exactly how to carry on

So run baby run baby run baby run baby run  (repeat to fade)
...........

I think there's actually two electric guitars on the recording, but they're
doing much the same thing as each other. During the verse, they're playing
something along these lines

Arpeggiate the rest of the verse chords in this way as well.

LEAVING LAS VEGAS
-----------------

G /A /B Csus2    G/B   A7sus           Dsus D
   Life springs eternal     on a gaudy neon street
Not that I care at all
I spent the best part of my losing streak in an Army Jeep
For what I can't recall
Oh I'm banging on my tv set and I check the odds and I, and I place my bet
I pour a drink and I pull the blinds - I wonder what I'll find

I'm leaving Las Vegas, the lights so bright
Palm sweat blackjack on a Saturday night
Leaving Las Vegas
Leaving for good, for good
I'm leaving for good
I'm leaving for good

Used to be I could drive up to Barstow for the night
Find some crossroad trucker to demonstrate his might
But these days it seems nowhere is far enough away
So I'm leaving Las Vegas today

I'm leaving Las Vegas, oh, the lights so bright
Blackjack on a Saturday night
I'm leaving Las Vegas
I'm leaving for good
I'm leaving for good
    Em
For good

I'm standing in the middle of the desert
        G                      G/B
Waiting for my ship to come in
Em
  But now no joker, no jack, no king
Csus2                         D
  Can take this loser hand and make it win

I'm leaving Las Vegas, oh
I'm leaving Las Vegas for good
For good

I quit my job as a dancer at the Lido des Girls
Dealing blackjack until one or two
Such a muddly line between the things you want
And the things you have to do

I'm leaving Las Vegas, the lights so bright
Palm sweat blackjack on a Saturday night
Leaving Las Vegas
I'm leaving for good
I'm leaving for good
Oh, I'm leaving Las Vegas, the lights so bright
Palm sweat blackjack on a Saturday night
I'm leaving Las Vegas
I'm leaving for good
I'm leaving for good
Oh, I'm leaving Las Vegas, the lights so bright on a Saturday night
                G      Csus2  G   Csus2 etc
I'm leaving Las Vegas
And I won't be back, no I won't be back
Not this time

The bass, acoustic and electric guitars each play repeating parts throughout
the most of this.
There is a two bar drum introduction and then the bass comes in with

  +   +       +  +    +  +    +   +
|-----------|-------|-------|---------|
|-----------|-------|-------|---------|
|--------0-2|-3--2--|-------|-5-5-----|

After twice through that, the acoustic comes in with

(Palm muting throughout)

For the chorus, the electric plays more - without the palm muting and
possibly uses fuller chords.

The bass line for the bridge section goes like this

  +  +    +   +     +  +    +   +     +  +    +   +     +  +    +   +

The acoustic and electric strum the chords over this - I can't be bothered
typing these parts up (sorry)
..........

STRONG ENOUGH
-------------

D                G      Bm     A
God, I feel like hell tonight
(The) tears of rage I cannot fight
I'd be the last to help you understand
Are you strong enough to be my man'

(My man)

Nothing's true and nothing's right
So let me be alone tonight
Cause you can't change the way I am
Are you strong enough to be my man'

Em  D   G   A  Bm      C      G     A
Lie  to me,  I promise I'll believe
Em  D   G   A    Bm     C     G     A
Lie  to me,  but please don't leave

(don't leave)

I have a face I cannot show
I make the rules up as I go
It's try and love me if you can
Are you strong enough to be my man'

Are you strong enough: to be my man'     *
Are you strong enough: to be my man'     *
Are you strong enough: my man'           *

When I've shown you that I just don't care
When I'm throwing punches in the air
When I'm broken down and I can't stand
Will you be strong enough to be my man'

Lie to me, I promise I'll believe
Lie to me, but please don't leave

...........

This song is a bit of a swine to transcribe - it doesn't involve any
difficult playing techniques, but it does involve a lot of guitars jumping
in and out of the mix. The following is an approximation of the main guitar
parts.
Guitar 1 plays the following riff twice for the introduction, and then four
times for the first verse.

  +       +       +         +       +       +
|-----2-------0h2---------|-------------------------|

|-----2-----2-------------|-------------0-----------|
|-0-------0-----------0---|-----4-----4---------2---|
|-------------------------|-2-------2-------0-------|
|-----------------3-------|-------------------------|

After the first verse, guitar 2 comes in. The following is what the two
guitars play throughout the rest of the verses

Gtr1 +       +       +         +       +       +
   |-----2-----2-0h2---------|-------------------------|

   |-----2h4-----2p0---------|-----4-----4-4-4-2---2---|
   |-------------------------|-------------------------|
   |-----------------3-------|-------------------------|

The parts at the bridge ('Lie to me...') are as follows - play twice

   |-----------------------------|-------------------------|
   |-----------------------------|-------------------------|
   |-----------------------------|-------------------------|

The following is what happens for the bit after the third verse - marked
in the text above with * : play twice

Gtr1 +       +       +         +       +       +
   |-----2---2-2-2-2-----2---|-----2---2-2-2-2-----0---|

   |-------------------------|-------------------------|

As well as that, there is also a mandolin (arranged here for guitar) playing
this over the top of that

CAN'T CRY ANYMORE

G             D G               D G
 Took your car,  drove to Texas
           D G                D       Em
Sorry honey,  but I suspected we were through
            C      G     etc
And I can't cry anymore
Since I left, been feelin' better cause
That's what you get when you stay together too long
And I can't cry anymore

Em                              Am
Wouldn't it be good if we could hop a flight to anywhere
Em              A
So long to this life
C
 So much for pretending, bad luck's never ending
D (stab)
 And now I know that..

Money comes in but the fact is there's not enough to pay my taxes
And I can't cry anymore
Well, got a brother - he's got real problems
Heroin - no, there's just no stopping him tonight
And I won't cry anymore

Wouldn't it be good if we could hop a flight to anywhere
So long to this life
So much for pretending, bad luck's never ending
It's never ending

 (Same chords as first half of verse)

Well it could be worse: I could've missed my calling
Sometimes it hurts but when you read the writing on the wall
Can't cry anymore

Em                              Am
Wouldn't it be nice if we could hop a flight to anywhere
Em              A
So long to this life
C
 So much for pretending, cause bad luck's never ending
And too much time I've been spending
With my heart in my hands waiting for time to come and mend it
D (stab)

I can't cry anymore (x5)

The following riff is played throughout by two electric rhythm guitars

  +   +   +   +
    (stab)
|-----3-----------|
|-----3-----3-3---|
|-----0-----2-2-0-|
|-----------0-0---|
|-----------------|
|-3---------------|

Tricky, isn't it! Obviously, the chord isn't always a G (and a D), so
follow the chords

There is also a lead guitar which plays the following during the chorus
('Wouldn't it be good..'):

  +   +   +   +     + + + +   +   +   +   +     + + + +

SOLIDIFY
--------

Dm
Pouring in and around the great wellspring of simple feeling
And I need bearings in the face of your cool cool fire
Walking backwards with the pounding of your voice makes my soul tired
And concrete is as concrete doesn't - and voices can drown

           G7
Why should I' Why should I' Why should I' Why should I'
Bb7 A7b9 G7
  Solidify, make me real
   Bb7 A7b9    Dm
So you can see me

I guess you thought I'd hide the sun from my liquid thoughts and make ice
  for you
You thought I'd seed my clouds with the rain of your personal dreams
I guess you thought I'd throw confetti at your parade of lofty thoughts
I guess you thought I'd shine good morning in some good morning Jack -
  surprise

Why should I' Why should I' Why should I' Why should I'
Solidify, make me real
So you can see me


Pouring in and around the great wellspring of simple feeling
I need bearings in the face of your cool cool fire
Walking backwards with the pounding of your voice makes my soul tired
And concrete is as concrete doesn't - and voices can drown

Why should I' Why should I' Why should I' Why should I'
Solidify, make me real
So you can see me

Chords:  Dm - x x x 10 10 10   G7 - xxx767
         Bb7 - x x x 10 9 10   A7b9 - xxx688 or xx7688
...........

There are at least three guitars on the recording here (not counting the
spectacular bass-line). There are two electrics, one on each side, and some
acoustic stuff too. The left electric plays with the chords as shown above
in a suitably funky manner -

  +         +           +           +
|------9/10-10-10-10----10----------10----9/10-|
|------9/10-10-10-10----10----------10----9/10-|
|------9/10-10-10-10----10----------10----9/10-| etc
|----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------|

(compression makes this sound well cool)

Meanwhile, the right electric plays this repeatedly -

  +     +     +     +           +     +     +     +
|-------15-13-----------------|-------15-13-------------|
|-------------15--------13h15-|-------------15----------|
|-----------------------------|-------------------------|
|-----------------------------|-------------------------|
|-----------------------------|-------------------------|
|-----------------------------|-------------------------|

When you get to the G7 chord , the two electrics keep on with what they're
doing, but an acoustic slide guitar does this -

  +  +  +  +    +  +  +  +    +  +  +  +    +  +  +  +
|-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|
|-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|
|/12----------|/12----------|/12----------|/12----------|
|-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|
|-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|
|-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|

Then an acoustic guitar (I'm not sure whether or not it's the same one -
you could give the part to one or both of the electric guitars since they
drop out here) plays the chords in much the same way as the left guitar was
doing up to now -

  +         +           +           +
|------10---10-10-------10----10-10---10-10----|
|------9----9--9--------9-----9--9----9--9-----|
|------10---10-10-------10----10-10---10-10----| etc
|----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------|

When you reach the Dm chord, the electrics go back to what they were doing,
and the acoustic plays

THE NA-NA SONG
--------------

A
Video countdown cyber phallic optics
Profligate talk shows scrounging for a topic
Rock-a-buy gravy train cradle's gonna rock me
37 million's what Larry Parker got me
World War XIV, my first Sony
Beatles wrote the Nike song and called it macaroni
Billy Jean Burger King, chauvinist pig pen
U.S. Army only wants a few straight men

Na-na, na-na na-na, na-na na-na na-na

Panaflex, Soloflex, Genuflect, Pope
What the world needs now is babies, gun and hope
Guardian angel dust in the wind cries Mary
Wanna be Madonna but the price is too high, very
Perfect rhythm Nazis in the pagan rhythm nation
Everybody's equal in the glow of radiation
Gotta four wheel drive and I park it in the driveway
When I get drunk I drive it on the parkway
Gotta get a TV set for my car
Tonight's the Battle of the Network Stars

N-|a-na, na-na na-na, na-na na-na na-na
N-|a-na, na-na na-na, na-na na-na na-na

Sanaflush Bud-Bowl makin' me sick
Cause anybody in a helmet looks just like a dick
Steely Dan, rather be hammer than a nail
The Serbs, the Poles, and the cheque's in the mail
Eat, sleep, live, die, @#$%ing record label
G Gordon Liddy under the table, table, table
Clarence Thomas organ grinder Frank Dileo's dong
Maybe if I let him I'd have had a hit song

Na-na, na-na na-na, na-na na-na na-na
(Repeat to fade)
...........

That's right, A the whole way through! - I always suspected that three
chord rock and roll was complicating things unnecessarily...
There's no guitar on this song at all, so just strum along.
However, I'm not too sure whether or not anybody in the States will have
this, but there was a free limited edition live CD released with the album
over here recorded at the BBC studios in London, which finishes with the
song "Volvo Cowgirl" - this is just The Na-na song with different chords
put to it. I'll transcribe it if anyone's interested...

NO ONE SAID IT WOULD BE EASY
----------------------------

A         G       F#m           D
 It's obvious the trouble we're in
When your father pulls up in a Mercedes Benz
He says he just happened to be in the neighbourhood
But before he leaves he slips the landlord the rent
You say, "It's just a question of eliminating obstacles"
As you throw your dinner out the kitchen door
You say, "I know how you try
A            G         F#m G*        F#m
 But, honey, let's eat out   tonight"

D              /E    /F# A    G  F#m
 No one said it would be easy
But no one said it'd be this hard
No one said it would be easy
No one thought we'd come this far

You can't seem to ever fold up a shirt
I bring it up and you think I'm a jerk
But I think we're here to stay
I can't imagine it any other way

No one said it would be easy
But no one said it'd be this hard
No one said it would be easy
No one thought we'd come this far

F#m    G                            A*     Bm
   Sometimes I wonder who he's picturing
Em
   When he looks at me
G                                     F#m
   When he looks at me and smiles


A       G  F#m  D
A       G  F#m  G

No one said it would be easy
No one said it'd be this hard
No one said it would be easy
No one thought we'd come this far
Oh, and look, we've come this far

NB The guitars are tuned (low to high) DADGAE (ie drop the B and low E
strings down by a whole tone)
Chords: A - x02200   G - 555xxx  F#m - 444xxx   D - 000200 (or 000202-|

................

Don't be scared off by the funny tuning - this song is dead easy to play -
beauty in simplicity.
There are three guitars on the recording - one electric and two acoustics.
Throughout the verses, the electric plays:

   +   +     + + + +   +   +   +   +     + + + +   +   +   +   +

Meanwhile the first acoustic guitar plays

   +   +     + +   + +     + +   +  +    + +   + +     +   +   +   +
                                              (NH)

WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOU
---------------------

|Am  |   |D  |   |F   |   |G   |   |  x2

Am                         D
  I'm so glad you're awake; that you're not like the others
F                               G
 Cause they're so straight-laced and no fun
Gosh that's nice, that lingerie
Makes me feel like .. oh, I don't know

Am                     D/A                        Am
  You're a very pretty thing - you remind me of someone
                         D/A
You must have heard some awful nasty things about me, but

F                                             Am
 What I can do for you there's no one else on God's green earth can do
F                                             Am
 What I can do for you there's no one else on God's green earth can do
D                Em                           F
 Just ask anybody, they'll tell you that it's true
                                  G      Em          C     G/B    Am
 There's no one else on earth can do the things that I can do for you

(For you, for you) x8

You're never gonna make it all by yourself
You're gonna need a friend, you're gonna need my help
I have so much to offer if you just be nice
If you do what I say and don't make me say it twice

Am                     D/A
  Do you mind if I just   rub my hand up, thus
Am                    D/A
  Come on just my hand,  come on just my hand.
Am                     D/A
