BAD BONES - Rainbow Kitten Surprise
E|E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------||
Tabbed by: Arthur Wright
This is a nice simple acoustic guitar track off of Rainbow Kitten Surprise's Sophomore LP: 'RKS'
The song contains only 3 chords each of which are just two notes finger-picked to a very simple pattern.
Below I have tabbed the notes and the pattern that is played every time each chord is referenced.
All of the chords are repeated for either a full or a half measure of the tab.
Enjoy.
Tuning: Drop D (D-A-D-G-B-e)

[Verse]
D Gmaj7
Outta town girls, they all just want a chance to see the cityscape, lead a looser game with
D Gmaj7
All the town boys, they all just want a chance with 'em, I understand you can
D B5
Bet your bare bones, she'll be coming back for more
D B5
And what for? Should've called, should've wrote, leave a note for her before you close that door
D Gmaj7
For some closure, you know she told ya she loves the way you speak
D B5
To her in the margins of a postcard she keeps from you
[Pre-Chorus]
D Gmaj7
Where are the marks of your failed arts? Have your daydreams been keeping you clean?
B5 Gmaj7 D
You never say what you need to make me believe you're the one that means it
[Chorus]
B5 Gmaj7 D B5
I hope it aint you, I hope it aint you to let me down, don't fail me now I'm running thin
Gmaj7 D Gmaj7 D
And I've just begun to wonder when you'll let me in, in, in, in... in
Verse Gmaj7:
D Gmaj7
I've got Jesus in my eye, and the Devil in the corner making rye whiskey and gin
B5 Gmaj7 D
Don't you say that aint him, you should've seen him when he came in
D Gmaj7
He said: The Yankees played today, they played, but in the eighth the Sox, they clutched the game
B5 Gmaj7 D
At least the Mets are getting laid, yea, that's what they say
D Gmaj7
Bet your bare bones, everybody everywhere is coming to your party
B5 Gmaj7 D
Man I heard this was the place to be yeah, not a lot that you can't get for free here
[Pre-Chorus]
D Gmaj7
Where are the scars of your failed arts? Have your daydreams been keeping you clean? (No!)
B5 Gmaj7 D
You never say what you need to make me believe you're the one that means it
[Chorus]
B5 Gmaj7 D B5
I hope it aint you, I hope it aint you to let me down, don't fail me now I'm running thin
Gmaj7 D Gmaj7 D
And I've just begun to wonder when you'll let me in, in, in, in... in
