Verse 3:
G
I saw you yesterday with an old friend
C D
It was the same ole' same "how have you been"
C G
Since you've been gone my world's been dark and grey
You reminded me of brighter days
C
I hoped you where comin' home to stay
D C
I was headed to church
G
I was off to drink you away
C D
I thought about you for a long time, can't seem to get you off my mind
C G
I can't understand why we're living life this way
Chorus:
C
I found your picture today, I swear I'll change my ways
D C G
I just called to say I want you, to come back home
C
I found your picture today, I swear I'll change my ways
D C G
I just called to say I want you, to come back home
D C G
I just called to say I love you, come back home
for the "bending" part:
Bend to a B and before "unbending", hit the B string (also being bent
to a D note[this is done simultaneously when you bend the B sting]) and
then "unbend" the B string.
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 KID ROCK 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.
