which I picked out by listening to the CD. I think its pretty
darn close.

Now go into the following

part 2: D E F#m C#m D Bm E
A
We went down
E
To the old part of town
F#m
By the stinking canal
D
The cotton mill
Under a ghetto palm
With her bicycle shorts on
With a gesture
She said to me
D E F#m C#m
I really must confess
D Bm
I'd to get undressed
E
With you
Though the thought
Had never really crossed my mind
Oh, but that was lie
So we went along
We went out
Under the turning leaves
Fetted earth
Was damp and cool
Autumn's feeble lights
On her salty neck
All innocence was lost
I really must confess
I'm feeling quite distressed
My stars are always crossed
And I have alway taken
More than I have given back
And as a matter of fact
I've given nothing up
Solo: violins and whatnot.
Finish with:
|D------6b7---
|E---0--------
The end

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 CRACKER 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.
