PAST THE POINT OF RESCUE (by Mick Hanly; recorded by Hal Ketchum)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Each chord is one measure; tablature for the instrumental bits is
at the end.]
Em Em D D A A Em Em
[intro: instrumental #1]
Em Em D D
Last night I dreamed you were back again
C G D Em Em
Larger than life again, holding me tight again
Em Em D D
Placing those same kisses on my brow
C G D Em
Sweeter than ever now, lord I remember how
D D Em Em
Couldn't get enough of kissing, do you know how much you're missing
D D A A
No you don't, but I do
Em Em Em Em
[instrumental #2]
The days like a slow train trickle by
And even the words that I write refuse to fly
All I can hear is your song haunting me
Can't get the melody out of my head, you see
Distractions I've been using, do you know how much you're losing
No you don't, but I do
Em Em
[instrumental #3]
G G C G
But I do, and I wonder if I'm past the point of rescue
C G Em D
Is no word from you at all the best that you can do
D D Em Em
I never meant to push or shove you, do you know how much I love you
D D A A
No you don't, but I do
Em Em D D A A Em Em
[instrumental #1, same as intro]
I swore I'd never fall like this again
Fools like me never win, came to my knees again
Can't close the door on the likelihood
Things might be just as good, I always believed they would
Gotta let your love invite me, baby do you think it might be
No you don't, but I do
[instrumental #3]
But I do, and I wonder if I'm past the point of rescue
Is no word from you at all the best that you can do
I never meant to push or shove you, do you know how much I love you
No you don't, but I do
[instrumental #3]
But I do, and I wonder if I'm past the point of rescue
Is no word from you at all the best that you can do
I never meant to push or shove you, do you know how much I love you
No you don't, but I do
I know you don't, but I do
I know you don't, but I do

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 KETCHUM HAL 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.
