tacet means don't play ;-)
Intro: D G D
(tacet) D G
New York City where it's cold as hell
Em F#m G A D
And the streetlights shown in my blue room
D G
I was thinking about the nights we spent
Em F#m G A D
Back in Galveston beneath the Georgia moon
I was early and I'd had my share
I was countin' change for a cab ride back to bed
She looked at me through the cold night air
And thoughts of you kicked off inside my head
G D
Well she was tall hair dark as midnight
A D
She had a way just like you do
G D Bm
To make me feel just like a woman should
(tacet) D
You can't call it cheatin'
A G
Cause she reminds me of you
Though I loved you and the trust we shared
Lord don't tell me that I've thrown it all away
A moments weakness shouldn't change the fact
That I need you and there's nothing more to say
G D
Lord she was tall hair dark as midnight
A D
She had a way just like you do
G D Bm
To make me feel just like a woman should
(tacet) D
You can't call it cheatin'
A G
Cause she reminds me of you... etc.
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 GIN BLOSSOMS 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.
