The Down Town" by Days of the New Tabbed by Steve Becker 11/26/97 Written by Travis Meeks, Published and Copyrighted (C) 1997 Scrogrow Music Chords used: A (002220) E (022100) Eadd9? (022130) Aadd? (577600) Gadd? (355400) Fadd? (133200) To make this easier, I'll just call the last 3 chords up there A?,G?,and F? and use p's for pauses.
(Intro) Play this part 4 times. At the end, strum an open E chord instead of playing the Eadd9.

Play only 2nd half. 2nd Verse 2nd Chorus- at end, play F? for 2 extra measures, end on E Back to Intro. Play only 1st half, then back and forth between G? and F? for 8 measures 3rd Chorus End is 1st half of chorus, then F? till ending on E That's It!! :) 1st Verse I know a town where ... Chorus Bring me down, bring me ... 2nd Verse Thoughtless in heart, desperate .... Chorus 3rd Verse I don't feel like I should .... Chorus (repeat till end) Tehcnical stuff: It may be easier (if your hands are big enough) to use your thumb for the bass notes on the low string. Doing this gave me the idea that if you don't play the bass note, all you have to do is slide an open E chord back and forth, which is fine if you're playing in a band with a bass. Have Fun :)!!
