Song: Colfax Avenue
Tabbed by: Jimbob
Not sure entirely about the D7 B chord and the Am7 in the chorus when playing against the record,
but sounds fine when I play it solo acoustic...
D7 B - 2x0212
Am7 - x02010
Verse:
C Bb
I got woken up Late last night
Am G
By a friend of his...
C Bb
Said he left the lion's lair With a bloody head
Am G
And he could hardly walk, and disappeared
Bridge:
Bm C
My husband's asleep My kids are in bed
D7B
I leave a note, and start driving...
Chorus:
C Am7
Up and down (up and down)
G F
Colfax Avenue
Verse:
I check all the alleys and the liquor stores
And the bars they still let him in to
He wasn't like this before he left now he comes back and his mind's a wreck
And the army what do they do?
Bridge:
My husband's worn out My kids are scared
But he's my little brother, and he's out there...
Chorus:
Somewhere (up and down)
Colfax Avenue
Up and down (up and down)
Colfax Avenue
Middle 8:
F Em F G Em
The nights can be so long and it's so cold outside
F . Em
He's just a kid That's seen too much
Dm EG
He's just a kid
Chorus:
Up and down (up and down)
Colfax Avenue
Up and down (up and down)
Colfax Avenue
