this is one of the songs that taught me to sing and play
at the same time. it's also neat cause it uses all the
major and minor chords in the key of E, so you can instantly
know all the chords of any key by recognizing these patterns
C#min - A - E - Esus4 - E
F#min - C#min - B - A
v1:
E G#min
"well i tried to make it sunday but i got so damned depressed
A E G#min
that i set my sights on monday and i got myself undressed,
A F#min C#min G#min A
i ain't ready for the alter, but i do believe there's times
F#min A E - Esus2 - E
when a woman sure can be a friend of mine"
v2 chords same as first:
E G#min
"well i keep on thinkin bout you sister golden hair surprise
A E G#min
that i just can't live without you can't you see it in my eyes
A F#min C#min G#min A
i've been one poor correspondent, i've been too too hard to find
F#min A E - Esus2 - E
but it doesn't mean you ain't been on my mind"
ch:
B A E
will you meet me in the middle will you meet me in the end
B A E
will you love me just a little just enough to show you care
F#min G#min A
well i tried to fake it i don't mind sayin i just can't make it
repeat intro, then verse 2, then chorus, then they do this
ugly doo wap thing that uses the chorus (B - A - E) thing, that
i always leave out.
there ya go! :)

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official AMERICA tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
