BUFFALO TOM - Late At Night (Big Red Letter Day)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
CRD done by Menno Luitjes, February 1994
"Euh.. This next song is about ghosts.
The kind in your mind, you know.. the ones in your castle."
(Tabbed from the live version they played last year in the Dutch radio
program 'Villa 65', lyrics are a bit different from BRLD.)
[i] INTRO:
D // D(2) D / Dsus2 //// D D(2) D /
[ii] PLAY THIS AT THE VERSES:
Dsus2-D // D(2) D Dsus2 O A(2)-Am
I-i close my door at ni-ight
Am / / / A(2)-C
But they get in all-right
C / / / G/D //// D //
And she turns on the light
(3 TIMES) AND AT THE END DO THE 'G/D-D' BREAK ONE TIME EXTRA.. THEN PLAY
[iii] THE CHORUS, LIKE THIS (I hope):
C G
If I could hold them in my hand
G O-Am
I'd make them under-stand
Am C
I'm not a haunted mind
C G/D //// D //
I'm not a thoughtless kind
(2 TIMES) AND AGAIN AN EXTRA 'G/D-D' BREAK.
THE SONG ENDS WITH PLAYING THIS 3 TIMES:
Am C
I do it if I could
C G/D //// D //
I hope you know I would
YOU PROBABLY GOT IT AFTER THIS SLIGHTLY OVERDONE EXPLANATION...
LYRICS:
-------
I close my door at night,
But they get in allright,
And she turns on the light.
I, I held her hands so tight,
'Cause words don't come out right,
When she sees things at night.
But me, I'm closer to the door,
I don't get scared no more,
But i don't know the score.
(CHORUS:)
If I could hold them in my hand,
I'd make them understand.
I'm not a haunted mind,
I'm not a thoughtless kind.
If I could put them in a jar,
I know they wouldn't scar. (??)
I do it if I could,
I hope you know I would.
(END:)
I do it if I could,
I hope you know I would. (3x)

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 BUFFALO TOM 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.
