I have compiled all of the circulating files from the net into this one
overview file. If you have anything to add, mail it to me and I'll update
it. Original credit is left intact, much thanks to Ken McLeod who did
many of them and Paul Hutchinson for his trained ear and skillfull
corrections. If I have forgotton to name anyone that credit is due to,
please flame me. ;-)
-Steve Vetter [[email protected]]
Further Note - Steve's a bit busy at the moment, so I've finished and
tidied up the file myself. If anyone has any further corrections, I'll
accept them if necessary. Full credit to Steve and Ken who did most of
the work on this.

From: [email protected] (Ken McLeod)
(NB During the verses, the guitar plays the riff shown - the chords
marked are implied by the keyboards and bass. However, during the
chorus, the guitar plays the chords as shown.
Note also the funky "Sleeping children.." bit. On the album, there
is definitely a chord change implied from A to G (by the wah-wah
guitar and possibly the keyboards) but the main guitar and bass
play the same thing under both chords, which kind of confuses the
ear. You can approximate what's happening like this

C (riff) D
Step out the front door like a ghost
Em G/D
into the fog where no one notices the contrast of white on white.
C D
And in between the moon and you the angels get a better view
Em G/D
of the crumbling difference between wrong and right
C D
I walk in the air between the rain, through myself and back again
Em G/D
Where? I don't know
C D
Maria says she's dying. Through the door, I hear her crying
Em G/D
Why? I don't know
C D Em G/D
Round here we always stand up straight
C D Em G/D
Round here something radiates
Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
She said she'd like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis
She walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land
Just like she's walking on a wire in the circus
She parks her car outside of my house Takes her clothes off,
Says she's close to understanding Jesus
She knows she's more than just a little misunderstood
She has trouble acting normal when she's nervous
C D Em G/D
Round here we're carving out our names
C D Em G/D
Round here we all look the same
C D
Round here we talk just like lions
Em G/D
But we sacrifice like lambs
C D Em A D A
Round here she's slipping through my hands / / Oh...
G/A A G/A A
Sleeping children got to run like the wind Out of the lightning dream
G/A A C D
Mama's little baby better get herself in Out of the lightning
She says, "It's only in my head."
She says, "Shhh...I know it's only in my head."
But the girl on the car in the parking lot
says: "Man, you should try to take a shot
Can't you see my walls are crumbling?"
Then she looks up at the building she says she's thinking of jumping
She says she's tired of life; she must be tired of something.
C D Em G/D
Round here she's always on my mind
C D Em G/D
Round here I got lots of time
C D
Round here we're never sent to bed early
Em G/D
Nobody makes us wait
C D Em G/D
Round here we stay up very very very very late
C D Em G/D
I can't see nothing, nothing around here
C D
You catch me if I'm falling, you catch me if I'm falling
Em G/D
Will you catch me 'cause I'm falling down round here
I said I'm under the gun round here
I'm innocent, I'm under the gun round here
I can't see nothing, nothing round here.

-- OMAHA -- Counting Crows
From: [email protected] (Bruce S. Tobin),
These chords were figured out by Matt Fleming.
Further corrections by Paul Hutchinson.
This was orginally posted with no capo. I have been informed that the
Crows play it with a capo on 2 and I found that it makes it a lot easier
to play. I have changed the file to be played with a capo on II.
Note the A chord in the verse. At times, if you sing it by yourself, it
will sound like it should be an Am, but I assure you that it should
definitely be an A. If you play it as Asus2, it might make things easier.
Intro:
Em D Em C
Em Bm
Start tearing the old man down
D A Em
Run past the heather and down to the old road
Bm C
Start turning the grain into the ground
Em
Roll a new leaf over
Bm D
In the middle of the night there's an old man
A Em
Treading around in the gathered rain
Bm D
Well mister if you want to walk on water
C G
Could you drop a line my way
Chorus:
D Em
Omaha
C
Somewhere in middle America
G D C
Get right to the heart of matters
G D
It's the heart that matters more
Em A C
I think you'd better turn your ticket in
G D/F# Em Em/D C G/B D/A
And get your money back at the door
Verse 2:
Start threading a needle
Brush past the shuttle that slides through the cold room
Start turning the wool across the wire
Roll the new life over
In the middle of the night there's an old man
Threading his toes through a bucket of rain
Hey mister you don't want to walk on water
You're only going to walk all over me
[Chorus]
[Bridge chords] x 4
Verse 3:
Start running the banner down
Drop past the color come up through the summer rain
Start turning the girl into the ground
Roll a new love over
In the middle of the day there's a young man
Rolling around in the earth and rain
Hey mister if you're going to walk on water, you know
You're only going to walk all over me
[Chorus] x 2
[Bridge chords] x 2

-- PERFECT BLUE BUILDINGS -- Counting Crows

the Bb chord, then stay on Bb, and don't play Am)

Well, all monkeys do what they see

From: Ken McLeod
Corrections by Paul Hutchinson.
(verses Ams2 x02200 - G 320003)
Ams2
My friend assures me, "It's all or nothing."
G
I am not worried, I am not overly concerned
Ams2
My friend implores me, "For one time only,
G
make an exception." I am not worried
Wrap her up in a package of lies
Send her off to a coconut island
I am not worried, I am not overly concerned
With the status of my emotions
"Oh," she says, you're changing
But we're always changing
It does not bother me to
(bridge Em 022000 - Cmaj7 x32000 - D13 x54000)
Em
Say this isn't love
Cmaj7 D13 Em
Because if you don't want to talk about it then it isn't love
Cmaj7 D13
And I guess I'm going to have to live with that
Em Cmaj7
But I'm sure there's something in a shade of grey
D13
Or something in between
Em Cmaj7 D13
And I can always change my name if that's what you mean
[2nd verse]
My friend assures me "It's all or nothing"
But I am not really worried I am not overly concerned
You try to tell yourself the things you try to tell yourself
To make yourself forget, I am not worried
[Bridge]
"If it's love," she said, "then we're gonna have to think about the
consequences."
She can't stop shaking, I can't stop touching her and..
(Chorus G 320033 - Csus2 x32033 - Am7s4 x02233 - D xx0232 - Em7 xx2033)
G Csus2 Am7s4 D G
This time when kindness falls like rain it washes her away
Csus2 Em7 Dsus4 G
And Anna begins to change her mind
Csus2 Am7s4 Dsus4 G Csus2
"These seconds when I'm shaking leave me shuddering for days"
Em7 Dsus4
And I'm not ready for this sort of thing
[3rd verse]
But I'm not gonna break
And I'm not going to worry about it anymore
I'm not going to bend, and I'm not going to break and I'm
not going to worry about it anymore
It seems like I should say, 'As long as this is love...'
But it's not all that easy so maybe I should
Snap her up in a butterfly net
Pin her down in a photograph album
I am not worried - I've done this sort of thing before
[Bridge]
But then I start to think about the consequences
Because I don't get no sleep in a quiet room and..
[Chorus]
This time when kindness falls like rain it washes me away
And Anna begins to change my mind
And every time she sneezes I believe it's love
and Oh Lord, I'm not ready for this sort of thing
She's talking in her sleep
It's keeping me awake
And Anna begins to toss and turn
And every word is nonsense but I understand and
Oh lord I'm not ready for this sort of thing
Her kindness bangs a gong
It's moving me along
And Anna begins to fade away
It's chasing me away it disappears and
Oh lord, I'm not ready for this sort of thing

Note: the timing of the words to the chord changes is approximate,
because the singer uses very elastic phrasing.This is how I do it.

Take the way home that leads back to Sullivan Street
Where all the bodies hang in the air
If she remembers, she hides it whenever we meet
Either way now, I don't really care, cause I'm gone from there
[Chorus]
Take the way home that leads back to Sullivan Street
I'm just another rider burned to the ground, come tumbling down
Chorus:

[Ken sent me an article that was posted a while back: - sv]
Just to expand a little further, while playing the 'D' chord during the
verses, it sounds like he may be occasionally pulling off the 1st string
(2nd fret), then hammering on again for the next strum.
Here's an attempt to tab the the way I'm currently playing it, with bass
notes added for the piano chord part (sounds ok to my ears, although I
haven't worked it out to see if it's correct.) Your mileage may vary.
Feel free to jump in and correct me, show me a different way, etc.
V = pluck bass notes together
/ = strum top three strings, alternating up & down strums
D D4
V / / / / / / / V V / / / / / / / V V

Take the way home that leads back
to Sullivan Street ...
In the change from D to D4, your index finger moves from the G string
down to the A string, then back. Of course, this whole sequence isn't
strictly repeated over and over... sometimes there are the little
piano runs in between, and so on.

-- GHOST TRAIN -- Counting Crows
From: Paul Hutchinson
NB The verses of this are a bit harmonically strange in that, like Round
Here and Time and Time Again, the guitar is not playing chords during
the verses, and so the bass carries the song rather a lot. However, I
get the impression that the verses are based on Dm the whole way
through, with the bass guitar playing Ds and Fs (and a G just before
the first verse). This should make the song horribly boring for you if
you're trying to play it by yourself without a bass guitarist, but
them's the breaks.
On the album, the guitar and some other strange instrument are messing
about with the following notes during the verses - listen to the tape
to get a better idea:

Intro:

Across the desert from sea to shining sea
I rode a ladder that climbs across the nation C/G

C/G Fmaj9 Em7 Fmaj9
She said, "Hey, how do you do?"

-- RAINING IN BALTIMORE -- Counting Crows
From: Ken McLeod
Corrections by Paul Hutchinson
Dm Bb C F
This circus is falling down on its knees
Dm Bb C
The big top is crumbling down
Dm Bb C F
It's raining in Baltimore fifty miles east
Dm Bb C
Where you should be, no one's around
Bb F
I need a phone call
Bb F
I need a raincoat
Bb F
I need a big love
Bb F
I need a phone call
These train conversations are passing me by
And I don't have nothing to say
You get what you pay for
But I just had no intention of living this way
I need a phone call
I need a plane ride
I need a sunburn
I need a raincoat
C Bb
And I get no answers
C Bb
And I don't get no change
C Bb F
It's raining in Baltimore, baby
Bb F C
But everything else is the same
There's things I remember and things I forget
I miss you, I guess that I should
Three thousand five hundred miles away
But what would you change if you could?
I need a phone call; Maybe I should buy a new car;
I can always hear a freight train; If I listen real hard
And I wish it was a small world
Because I'm lonely for the big towns
I'd like to hear a little guitar
I think it's time to put the top down
I need a phone call
I need a raincoat
I really need a raincoat
I really, really need a raincoat
I really, really, really need a raincoat
I really need a raincoat

Intro: |D |Dsus2 |G | Gmaj7| x2
A
Blue morning Blue morning
G
Wrapped in strands of fist and bone
A
Curiosity, Kitten,
G
Doesn't have to mean you're on your own
A
You can look outside your window
G
He doesn't have to know
A
We can talk awhile, baby
G
We can take it nice and slow
D Dsus2 G Gmaj7
All your life is such a shame, shame, shame
D Dsus2 G Gmaj7
All your love is just a dream, dream, dream
Are you happy when you're sleeping?
Does he keep you safe and warm?
Does he tell you when you're sorry?
Does he tell you when you're wrong?
I've been watching you for hours
It's been years since we were born
We were perfect when we started
I've been wondering where we've gone
All your life is such a shame
All your love is just a dream
I dreamt I saw you walking up a hillside in the snow
Casting shadows on the winter sky as you stood there counting crows
A G/B
One for sorrow Two for joy, Three for girls and four for boys
A/C# G/D
Five for silver Six for gold and Seven for a secret never to be told
There's a bird that nests inside you
Sleeping underneath your skin
When you open up your wings to speak
I wish you'd let me in
All your life is such a shame
All your love is just a dream
Open up your eyes
You can see the flames of your wasted life
You should be ashamed
You don't want to waste your life
D
I walk along these hillsides In the summer 'neath the sunshine
G
I am feathered by the moonlight falling down on me
D G
Change, change, change
NB This figure appears and is played constantly from
'I walk these hillsides' onwards.

-- EINSTEIN ON THE BEACH -- Counting Crows
from the DGC Rarities Disk, Volume I
From: Mark Bentley
(Intro)
E A E B
(1st Verse)
[Bouncy E A E B]
Albert's always sincere, he's a sensivitive type
His intentions are clear, he wanna be well-liked
Better think of nothing, all are we anything (???)
Better to be better than to be anything
A E A E B
And Albert's vision is blooming uncontrolled
A
All his wings are slowly sinking
(Chorus)
C#m B A E
And the world begins to disappear
C#m B A E
The worst things come from inside here
C#m B A E
And all the king's men reappear
F#m A
For an eggman, on and off the wall
A
Will never be together again
E A E B
(2nd Verse)
Einstein down on the beach staring into the sand
It's everything he believes in has been shattered
What you fear in the night in the day comes to call anyway-ay
We all get burned as:
(Bridge)
A E A E B
One more sun comes sliding down the sky
A
One more shadow leans against the wall
(Chorus)
G#m A G#m
Albert's waiting in the sun
A
On a field (?) American
G#m A B
For the cause of some inflated form of hit and run
(Solo)
(Bridge)
(Chorus)
G#m A G#m
Albert's fallen on the sun
A
Cracked his head wide open
(Chorus x 2)
(Ad lib outtro)
E A E B etc
No never be together again
No no never never never again, uh huh
What you fear in the night etc..

E
In the still water she lies down
D
Shaking in the press of sunlight
A
We rolled into Lexington
E
She shakes off the drop of daylight
E
Water beading up her chest
D
Bleeding down between her knees
A
Rivers in Kentucky flow
E
Between the bluegrass wavy seas
D E
But oh, Marjorie
D A E
Twists the knife once more inside of me
Breathless with anticipation
Baited breathers set their hooks
Tuck their heads beneath the high grass
And lie and wait beside the brooks
For infants pushing slowly through
Frustration leading back along
The alleys of a childhood
Will not release us willingly
But oh, Marjorie
Sticks the knife in while I heard the sea
[solo]
F#m B? [repeat]
Dust me off and shut me down
And dream of where I haven't been
Close the door inside my heart
Stuck in the south Atlantic wind
I have hollow eyes
Haunting only to myself
Even so, I can't stop calling
This great big hollows in my self
I took the train form California
To the far side of the continent
Woke up in Kentucky
Where a wedding was about to end
I looked up at Anna
She turned back to look at me
It's best to kill the ones that matter
Render blind the ones who see
But oh, Marjorie
Takes the blade and walks away from me
Oh, Marjorie
Love like blood is pouring out of me
Oh, Marjorie
My heart won't stop bleeding over me baby
[solo over F#m and B?]
Oh, I can't shut it in
It's got far too many doors to block the wind
Oh, I can't shut it in
It's got far too many doors to block the wind

A E
Wasted in the afternoon
G D
Waiting on a train
A E
I woke up in pieces and Elizabeth
G D
Had disappeared again
I wish you were inside of me
Hope that you're OK
I hope that you're resting quietly
I just wanted to say
Chorus:
Good, Goodnight, Elizabeth
Goodnight Elizabeth, Goodnight
Good, Goodnight, Elizabeth
Goodnight, Elizabeth, Goodnight
We couldn't all be cowboys
So some of us are clowns
Some of us are dancers on the midway
Roam from town to town
Well I hope that everybody
Can find a little flame
I say my prayers and I set myself one fire
And I walk out on the wire, once again
I said
[chorus]
Well I wait for you in Baton Rouge
I miss you down in New Orleans
I wait for you while she slips in something comfortable
And I miss you when I'm slipping in between
If you wrap yourself in daffodils
I will wrap myself in pain
And If you're the Queen of California
Baby, I am the King of the Rain
And I said:
[chorus]
