UNRAVEL
Capo III
C#dim7: 012023
*There's also a weird-ass dissonant-sounding G chord in the break played like this: 320303. Trust me.
Intro: (G)(C)(Em)(D)

BRAVE PARADE
Capo VII
Here's another song that's done on piano on the CD . . . this is Lynn's guitar
version. As with "You're Not Coming Back," you'll capo at the seventh fret to
play along with the CD.
Intro: (C)(G)
(C)It's ok, I'm not afraid

Coda: At that last (G) chord, Lynn immediately goes into an instrumental bit from the song "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." She doesn't sing the lyrics, but I'll included them here so you'll know where the chords go. The (G) chord immediately before the word "home" above, is the same (G) chord that begins the following sequence, with the (Cm) chord played x01013
(G)Some(Em)where (Bm)over the (G7)rainbow

YOU DON'T LOVE ME ANYMORE
Capo III
The basis of this song is a bass-line walk-down, so make sure to pluck the notes in bold as you pick the chords.
C: x32033
Intro: (G)(C) (G)(C)
(C)Well I (C/B)saw you at the (Am7)party (G)

(C)(C/B)(Am7)(G)
I LOVED A COWBOY
DADGBE (tune your low E string down to D)
This is going to look a lot more difficult than it really is, although I'm not sure that the chords are called
what I've called them. But just play them as I've indicated and you'll be fine.
First off, the D/Gmaj7/Em7/Gmaj7/Asus sequence is ridiculously simple. You'll play a standard D
chord to start off, then pull your index finger off the 3rd string and put it on the second fret of the 5th
string to make the Gmaj7 chord . . . then move it to the second fret of the 6th string to make the Em7
chord . . . then back to the Gmaj7 chord . . . then to the second fret of the 4th string for the A7sus
chord. See? It's just one finger that's doing all the work.
Then for the A7sus . . . A7sus/D . . . A7sus/C# . . . A7sus/B sequence, it's basically a 4th/5th string
walkdown where you'll play the notes as I've indicated them in bold below.
D: 000232
Intro: (D)(Gmaj7)(Em7)(Gmaj7)(A7sus) . . . (D)(Gmaj7)(Em7)(Gmaj7)(A7sus)
I loved a (D)cowboy
And those (Em)nights spent in (A/F#)two-horse towns
Well I loved this (D)cowboy
And those (Em)nights spent in (A/F#)two-horse towns
(D)(Gmaj7)(Em7)(Gmaj7)(A7sus)
When I thought a(D)bout it
From those (Em)nights spent in (A/F#)two-horse towns
(Gmaj7)(Em7)(Gmaj7)(A7sus)
LONELINESS
Capo I
Gsus2: 320013
This one's not particularly difficult, although perhaps a little complex, since it uses a walkdown sequence that's not one of your standard variety bass-line walkdowns.
The F-F/E-Dm7-F/E-F sequence is a walkdown-and-back-up on the fourth string.
When playing the first F chord (standard position: xx3211), your bass note
will be the third fret on the fourth string (an F note). For the F/E,
you'll play it as xx2211, with the second fret on the fourth string (an E
note) as your bass note. For the Dm7, which is played xx0211, the open
fourth string is the bass note. Then the F/E again, then the F again, then
the Dm7 again, utilizing the same bass notes you used during the walkdown.
For the progressions where you see an F/G chord, it means that you'll add a low G note (sixth string/third fret) to the F chord, and playing it: 3x3211.
Intro: (C)(Cmaj7)(C7)(C) . . . (F)(F/E)(Dm7)(F/E)(F)(Fmaj7)(G)
(C)Loneliness is an (Cmaj7)envelope you can (C7)seal yourself (F)into (F/E)
It is the (F)hurt that hurts the (G)deepest
(C)Loneliness will (Cmaj7)steal your soul (C7)on stormy windy (F)hills (F/E)
It is the (F)hurt that hurts the (G)deepest
I KNOW IT WAS LOVE
Capo IV
Intro: (Fmaj7) (G) (Am)
Well I know it was love
And this (F)love poured(G) down like (Am)rain
Well I know it was love
And this (F)love poured(G) down like (Am)rain
Now you wonder where it's gone
We could have rode the (C)rails
And this (F)love poured(G) down like (Am)rain
THE GHOST OF DEADLOCK
Capo V
The chords are all played in standard position, although Lynn frets the 3rd fret on the high E string (a G note) during most of them (except for in the intro, when they're played normally with the open first string).
Intro: (C)(Am)(Fmaj7)(G)
In this (C)smoky bar
But your (C)eyes are much too fam(Am)iliar
And when (C)you go home
But your (C)eyes are much too fam(Am)iliar
(C)(Am)(F)(G) . . . (2x) . . . then hold on (C)
LONG TIME COMING
Intro: (Em)(C)(D) . . . 6x
(C)I remember how the (G)sky looked
(C)It's been a long time (G)coming
(C)All around my pillars (G)crumbled
(C)It's been a long time (G)coming
(C)Then I heard one thousand (G)angels
(C)It's been a long time (G)coming
(Em)(C)(D) . . . fade
LAST NIGHT
D: 000200
In practice, rather than in theory, this is going to be a lot easier than it looks, but I'm going to have to make it sound difficult in order to explain what I'm talking about, so bear with me.
The bulk of the song does not really utilize the chords as described above,
and even when she does use them, they're merely "anchors" for the
high string picking that you can very clearly hear in the intro. It's a
little complicated to describe; she mostly does a repetition of the
following riff, and I'll use the opening (D) as an example.
Lynn gently fingerpicks it on Slightly Haunted, but strums it when she
plays it live, so try strumming this to get the basic idea:
00020x (strum once)
Then basically the same thing with the (A)
Then basically the same thing with the (Em)
Followed by a (D)(Em)(A) progression. That's sorta how the intro works.
But mostly, there are two simple progressions that make up the third and fourth
lines of each verse, and the entire bridge (the "I watched the trees
shiver" section). One's a two-note progression, the other's a four, and I
will refer to them as (#2) and (#4). Progression #2 is what's used in the
third line of each verse and the third line of the bridge, while progression
#4 is used in the last line of each verse, plus the first, second and last
lines of the bridge.
Anyway, progression #2 is this, and you should obviously pick the fretted notes to form a back and forth bass line thing:
x20000 Got out my
Progression #4 is:
(Ain't it)
Again, you'll pluck those three ascending notes on the sixth string, then on the 002000 (which is really an A chord), pluck the open fifth string to resolve the ascending bass line.
Intro: (D)(A)(Em)(D)(Em)(A)
Last night I (D)watched the first snow come floating down
Then I (D)watched the neighbors' kids try to lick the flakes
x20000 pretty soon we'll be
200000 wish I had a
And then I (D)watched the rooftops change from black to white
x20000 birds left

(Use #4 for this line)** And then I watched the trees shiver by the light of the moon
200000 watched the trees
200000 didn't feel
x20000 any day
200000 cold and the
But last night I (D)watched the first snow come floating down
200000 funny how the
You'll note that at the end of the song, progression #4 does not resolve to
the (A), rather it resolves to the (D) bit that's the same as
the intro.
**on this line, don't resolve to the (A) chord . . . end it and hang at the third note of progression #4.
So there you have it. It's actually very easy to play, and like I said, it's more complicated to describe it. But play along with the CD and you'll get it quickly.

I loved his (Gmaj7)cowboy ways
I loved his (Em7)sky-blue eyes
Those (Gmaj7)cold November (A7sus)days
He'd (D)walk across the field
And I could (Gmaj7)see his breath
And I swear I (Em7)heard his heart
Beating in(Gmaj7)side his (A7sus)chest (A7sus/D)(A7sus/C#)(A7sus/B)
(G/addE)Pick-up trucks and (Em)country (Asus4)bars
Those (Em)nights were like (A/F#)blankets

Like (Em)falling . . . like (Asus4)falling . . . (D)stars (Gmaj7)(Em7)(Gmaj7)(A7sus)
More than I (Gmaj7)should admit
More than I (Em7)knew was right
But I got real (Gmaj7)used to (A7sus)it
I would go out (D)ridin'
For two (Gmaj7)weeks at a time

Some loves (Gmaj7)are compromise
Some loves burn (Em7)bright and fast and die
