C D7+9
along the Palo Duro canyon
C Dsus4
Red River shows so many eyes
C Dsus4 C Dsus4 - D
one eye squinting, shaded from the sun, shoot me
C D7+9
black as oil, his hair shone
C
lily white, his skin glistened
Dsus4 C Dsus4 - D
restless as the reed between his lips blew
C G D
it's just that mean old Texas sun
C G C D
it makes me dizzy, dizzy, dizzy in my head
G C G - <riff 3x>
C D7+9
what day is this? i, quiet, asked the sky
C Dsus4
what time is it? he asked me, sitting up
C G D

C D7+9
what are you running from? i asked the white boy
C Dsus4
from the guys who chase me there; come run

(D part *4) (G part *4)
You fall off the floor
(D part *4) (G part *4)
I slide your head across the ice
(D part *4) (G part *4)
I throw my head through the window, crash
(D part *4) (G part *4)
Like gods a room full of delicate cutters
(D part *4) (G part *4)
All sitting down the room, as many doors
(D part *4) (G part *4)
All but one of them are closed
(D part *4) (G part *4)
She goes around, opening the doors
(D part *4) (G part *4)
This has another ending, full of innocent children
(D part *4) (G part *4)
One of them are closed
(D part *4) (G part *4)
She goes around, this has another ending
(D part *4) (G part *4) (D part *4) (G end)
Opening the doorspart *4) (D part *4) (G end)
Opening the doors
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 THROWING MUSES 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.
