Dont Talk Back

Text File

yet another song i saw transcribed on another website,
 but with the capo on the 4th fret, in G, and not only was
that not comfortable to play, but i didn't like the way it sounded.

 and once again i did it my own way, different chords,no capo.
more fun to play & feels better on the hand.
 sounds good, too.
 barre chords where appropriate.

just listen to the cd for rhythm, etc.

comments, corrections, words o wisdom ?

DON'T TALK BACK

Capo IV

Intro: (G)(Em)(C)(D) . . . (G)(Em)(C)(D)

Well it's (Em)half my heart and a (C)little bit of soul
That (G)makes me feel I wanna (D)ride this road
(Em)I wouldn't (C)change it if I (G)could (D)
And (Em)me and this road, you know we've (C)got an understanding
(G)It won't leave me at (D)home and I am
(Em)Too tired to (C)do just what I (G)should (D)
(C)And last night I (D)asked if I could (G)take (G/F#)comfort (Em)in the rosewood
(C)The road said nothing at (D)all

CHORUS:

'Cause it (G)don't talk back unless the (Em)wind blows hard
I (C)drive it all night with the (D)wheel of my car
(G)It won't leave me (C)running for the door (D)
And if the (G)paint's still wet I can (Em)just slow down
And it all (C)goes away on the (D)other side of town
(G)And nothing is that (C)easy anymore (D)

Well the (Em)hurt won't leave with the (C)sight of white lines
But it (G)eases up my (D)pain for a while
(Em)The only (C)habit that I (G)keep (D)
And (Em)miles take time but the (C)time is mine
And (G)always moving (D)suits me fine
(Em)I'll catch my (C)breath when I (G)sleep (D)
(C)And after (D)all that I've done (G)I'm not (G/F#)half what I (Em)hoped that I'd become
(C)There's still a long way to (D)go

CHORUS

Break: (Em)(C)(G)(D) . . . (Em)(C)(G)(D)

(C)And last night I (D)asked if I could (G)take (G/F#)comfort (Em)in the rosewood
(C)The road said nothing at (D)all

'Cause it (G)don't talk back unless the (Em)wind blows hard
I (C)drive it all night with the (D)wheel of my car
(G)It won't leave me (C)running for the door (D)
And if the (G)paint's still wet I can (Em)just slow down
And it all (C)goes away on the (D)other side of town
(G)And nothing is that (C)easy anymore (D)

Intro: B  G#m E F#  B G#m E F#

          G#m                 E
Well it's half my heart and a little bit of soul
     B                     F#
That makes me feel I wanna ride this road
G#m        E              B     F#
I wouldn't change it if I could
    G#m                              E
And me and this road, you know we've got an understanding
    B                F#
It won't leave me at home and I am
G#m          E              B     F#
Too tired to do just what I should
E                F#                    B       G#m
And last night I asked if I could take comfort in the rosewood
E                        F#
The road said nothing at all


CHORUS:
           B                         G#m
'Cause it don't talk back unless the wind blows hard
  E                           F#
I drive it all night with the wheel of my car
   B              E                    F#
It won't leave me running for the door
           B                       G#m
And if the paint's still wet I can just slow down
       E                    F#
And it all goes away on the other side of town
    B               E            F#
And nothing is that easy anymore


         G#m                       E
Well the hurt won't leave with the sight of white lines
       B           F#
But it eases up my pain for a while
 G#m      E           B    F#
The only habit that I keep
    G#m                     E
And miles take time but the time is mine
     B             F#
And always moving suits me fine
G#m           E             B     F#
I'll catch my breath when I sleep
 E        F#                 B                   G#m
And after all that I've done I'm not half what I hoped that I'd become
E                           F#
There's still a long way to go


           B                         G#m
'Cause it don't talk back unless the wind blows hard
