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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Francois Rousseau Laboratoire Incognito (Computer Languages) Universite de Montreal Canada E-mail: rousseaf@iro.umontreal.ca --------------------------------------------------- www.TAB6.com
