Rocky World - Daniel Lanois
G Bmin C G
My hands are wrapped in your raven hair
G Bmin C
In the faded picture on the back stair
C Bmin C
We were narrow, we were steady, trembling and ready
C D G
To give it Hell in this rocky world
G Bmin C G
You said do I look like I could be a strong mother
G Bmin C
And raise the good side of a young daughter
C Bmin C
In the hotel Shangri-La let me tell you
C D G
I've been thinking of her in this rocky world
G Bmin C G
Chicago is heavy, but I can't turn around
G Bmin C
I'm smuggling that whiskey, every flesh and pound
C Bmin C
Michigan I worry, and Susie I'm sorry
C D G
That I lost you out there in the rocky world
C Bmin C
Would you build me a building a chapel up there
G Bmin C
At the top of the hill in the still blue air
C Bmin C
Near the weather vane, by the track and train
C D G
I'll be looking for you in the rocky world
G Bmin C G
She's turning twenty and out on the make
G Bmin C
Pounding the blacktop with a habit to shake
C Bmin C
She's looking for a manger in the eyes of a stranger
C D G
Down on the streets of a rocky world
G Bmin C G
Jenny has religion she sings in a church
G Bmin C
She's made a decision to colour her hair
C Bmin C
The Black man cut the sugar cane she watches the rain
C D G
In a building far from the rocky world
C Bmin C
Yeah I'll tell you something I'll never forget
G Bmin C
The sight of you in silhouette
C Bmin C
Outside Sault Ste. Marie you really threw me
C D G
When you pulled me down to your rocky bed
G Bmin C G
In a crowded room I stood there empty
G Bmin C
Looking for salvation and glory be
C Bmin C
When a shot turned my head and I saw you instead
C D G
Walk into my rocky world
Alright, there we go...Anybody else out there have more Lanois tunes to
share?

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 LANOIS DANIEL 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.
