Chords/Tabulature for
Albuquerque

Submitted by: John Rosenfelder (earbender@earthlink.net)

Notes about this song:

  • Corrections by Wolfgang Deimel (deimel@mabi.de).
  • Intro tab bu Alan DerKazarian(ADERKAZARIAN@MBLN1.MBLN.LIB.MA.US)
  • Note from Alan:
    • Neil drops the bottom E down to D (like in Harvest Moon). This gives his first chord played a weird Em/D sound.
    • Believe it or not, I'm pretty sure the first Em bar of the song has five beats to it (5/4, maybe 5/8), and that the second D bar has three beats (3/4?). This repeats for the third and fourth bars but then rights itself to 4/4 time for the rest of the song. Bizarre for Neil, I agree, but count it out. I'm pretty sure it's true.

           Em	         D
Well they say that Santa Fe
 
    Em 		D
is less than ninety miles away
 
              Em	     G		      A	
and i've got time to roll a number and rent a car
 
   G Em	          D
Oh Al - bu	querque
 
 
I've been flying down the road
and I've been starving to be alone
Independent from the sea that I've known
 
(chorus)
 
Instrumental Verse (harmonica solo) and Chorus (pedal steel solo)
 
So I'll stop where I can
Find some fried eggs and country ham
I'll find somewhere where they don't care who I am.
 
(chorus)
