From: Perfect Sound Forever Subject: Homeward Date: unknown HOMEWARD Pretty easy to play with a capo at the 3rd fret. I'm not sure if David plays it this way but the Eb (668886) is a bit difficult to finger accurately and quickly without the capo, and it's next to impossible to play the trill on the opening Bb. (capo 3) INTRO/PRE-VERSE: G/Em/C VERSES ("Well you've stolen my heart"): G/Am7 G/Am7/Bm/Am7/C CHORUS: G/Am7/Em/D ("And a butterfly in the winter...") G/Em/Am7/C x 2 ("It's dumb -- I know what I want to say...") (or, without capo...ouch!) INTRO/PRE-VERSE: Bb/Gm/Eb VERSES ("Well you've stolen my heart"): Bb/Cm7 Bb/Cm7/Dm (barred)/Eb/Cm7 CHORUS: Bb/Cm7/Gm/F ("And a butterfly in the winter...") Bb/Gm/Cm7/Eb x 2 ("It's dumb -- I know what I want to say...") ------------------------------------- Author: Mitch Wiedemann Subject: Tab and chords for "homeward" 6/8 time Key: B flat guitar capo 3rd fret here's an approximation of the intro thingy for one guitar G Em C [---3---3-3-3-3-----------|-0---0-0-0-0-0---0-0-0-0-] [---0---0-0-0-0-----------|-0---0-0-0-0-1---1-1-1-1-] [---0---0-0-0-0-----------|-0---0-0-0-0-0---0-0-0-0-] [---0-----------0h2p0---0-|-2-----------2-----------] [---2-----------------2---|-2-----------3-----------] [---3---------------------|-0-----------------------] (intro) [:G |Em C :] four times (verse) [G . . |G . . ] You've stolen my [Am . . |Am . . ] heart, [G . . |G . . ] & I want you to re- [Am . . |Am . . ] -member [Bm . . |Bm . . ] now what'll I do?
