Here is a redo on the .crd file I e-mailed earlier.
The format was not retained on the earlier version
and I apologize.
"HOME" by Joe Diffie
Verse 1:
[D]The only the thing I see ahead is
[G] just the heat [A]a rising off the[D] road
[D]The rainbows I've been chasing keep on
[G]fading before I [A] find my pot of [D]gold
[G]But more and more I'm thinking, that the only treasures
[A]that I'll ever [D]kno[G]ow
[D]Are long ago and far behind and [A]wrapped up in my
[G]memories o
f [D]home
Chorus:
[G]Home was a swimming hole and a fishing pole
and the feel of a muddy row between my [D]toes
[G]Home was a back porch swing where I would sit
and mom would sing[D] amazing grace
While she hung out the [A]clothes,
[G]Home was an easy chair with my daddy there
and the smell of Sunday supper on the [D]sto-[G]ve
[D]My footsteps carry me away but [A]in my mind I'm
[G]always going [D]home
Verse 2:
[D]Now the miles I put behind me ain't as
[G]h
ard as the [A]miles that lay[D] ahead
[D]And its much to late to listen to the
[G]words of wisdom [A]that my daddy[D] said
[G]The straight and narrow path he showed me turned into a
[A]thousand winding [D]ro-[G]oads,
[D]My footsteps carry me away, but [A]in my mind I'm
[G]always going [D]home.
Repeat Chorus (then add)
[G]Yeah, the straight and narrow path he showed me turned into a
[A]thousand winding [D]ro-[G]oads,
[D]My footsteps carry me away, but [A]in my mind I'm
[G]always going [D]home.
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 JOE DIFFIE 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.
