Arethas Gold by Wild Sweet Orange Standard Tuning Capo 3 At certain parts of the song (*) he modifies the Am and Em chords. The strum pattern at these times is a constant so I’m posting the fingering at each strum when he does it. You’ll have to listen to know exactly where to do it. I know there is a name for those chords in between but I am too lazy to look them up. Am (x11ish) (x2) Am (x1) (x2) then on to G e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|------1---------1--------1---------1---------------------------------------| G|------2------------------2---------2---------------------------------------| D|------2---------2--------2-------------------------------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| And now I’m too lazy to type it up again for Em. Just do pretty much the same things. For the beginning of the song it only has the top string of Em released for 3 strums and then later in the song just do the same thing as with the Am. LOL – I also don’t feel like listening to the song again to put all the asterisk in there so if you hear something funny it probably should be one. I think there is a C chord with some modification too somewhere near the end. Anyways I hope this is good enough for ya’ll. Em* Am* G Em Over that new paved highway, there is a house where love was made. Em Am G D Not with screaming and touching, but with the records quietly spinning. Em Am G And it was Aretha’s gold. And it was the way you told me to just shut up and D try and enjoy myself. Em Am G But that I can never do, so now it’s ---?---blue, Oh it dreams and dreams D and dreams and dreams of you. C G C G C G Em So if you can’t treat her like a woman then treat her like a baby doll. C G C G C G Oh, and just leave her in that bedroom where he watched the summer Em tumble and fall. (guitar technically isn’t playing, just drums and effects) Em Am G Em Over the gardens, through the schools, she waits alone by a swimming pool. Em Am G D A storm is brewin’ in her soul. When did it start I like… to think… I know. Em Am Well it was the summer night, a (?sweet as night just died?) She turned the G D corner and I knew all was about to change. Em Am G And then I kissed your mouth. I felt your past somehow. Oh and your whole D life flashed before my eyes. C G C G C G Em So if you want to treat her like a woman then pick her up like a baby doll. C G C G C And rock her gently and tell her that you’re sorry and then be G D willing to let her go. C G Because you you’re as tameless as an ocean. I want to love you but Am Em commotion, oh it ravages me whole. C G Oh and me I’m as dramatic as the thunder. My lightning scares as she rolls Am Em over. Oh yes she needs to get some sleep. During solo: C G Am Em C G Oh and you, you’ll be as famous as an ocean. They’ll try to name you but Am Em commotion, oh, it’ll ravage them whole. C G But me I’m as dramatic as the thunder. My lightning scares as she rolls Am Em* over, oh yes she needs to get some sleep. www.TAB6.com
