Madder Rose--"I Almost Lost My Mind"
transcribed by Patrick Glass (pglass@comp.uark.edu)
from the wonderful album you probably don't own Panic On
These lyrics may be wrong, but you get the idea :)
Opening Riff (these are the notes to it, even though they use harmonics
on the record, this will be much easier for most of you
G Em
-3------------------0---2---0----------
-0---0-0------------0------------------
-0-------0----------0------------------ play twice
-0-0----------------2------------------ then lyrics start
-2------------------2------------------
-3------------------0------------------
(during the chorus after each Em chord, hammer on the 2nd finger on the
high E string)
G Em
If I just hang around outside
G Em
I may just see you passing by
G Em
And spend another sleepless night
G Em
Looking for the nerve to face you
G Em
And I can only think of one thing
G Em
I can only think of one thing
(these chords just pick them not one note at a time, whatever works for you)
G A C A C
It comes from way inside, to let you know that I
G A
See you crying all the time, and you'll cry
C C (hold)
See you crying all the time, I almost lost my mind
play the riff twice again
G Em
If I could summon up the will
G Em
To call you up and talk until
G Em
I'd get bedrezzled (??) from the chill
G Em
It's always left me shaking
G Em
And I can only think of one thing
G Em
I can only think of one thing
G A C A C
It comes from way inside, to let you know that I
G A
See you crying all the time, and you'll cry
C C (hold)
See you crying all the time, I almost lost my mind
then there's a solo, where I usually play the opening riff again, and the
G and Em chords or something. I'm too lazy to figure out the solo though,
since I just have an acoustic guitar and don't really like to play them :)
the song ends on Em
