Danny Callahan
Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band
Tabbed by Sam Kurcab
Ok I saw another version of this song on this site and didn't like it as much as my own,
I decided to post what i think is the correct version. Can be played with a capo on 2nd
and the chords transposed down a whole step for ease of playing, but i think it sounds
when played in all barre chords. I also play both E and F# at their highest frets
for the E and 9th for the F#.) Anyways great song, enjoy.
Intro: D5, C5, D5, C5, Bb5
I've tabbed out a bit of the electric too but i'm not so sure about the accuracy of it.
think the little riff in the intro is something like:
e--6-8---------------|
B-------4h6----------|
G-------------6------|
D-----------------7--|
A--------------------|
E--------------------|
B
Green world loves the chloroform
C#m
Front porch in the thunderstorm
E F# B
Controlled chaos, confused energy
B
Stop reading the weather charts
C#m
Stop counting the playing cards
E F# B
There's no system, there's no guarantee
E F#
That the love you feel you carry inside
B
Can be passed
E F#
But you try and all you do is just talk
Abm
To your past
C#m F# (play this one at 2nd fret)
Ask how are you getting on, alone?
B
Some wander the wilderness
C#m
Some drink cosmopolitans
E F# B
Some quote science, some glean astroplanes
B
I can't tell where the canvas stops
C#m
Homesick as an astronaut
E F# B
Keep drifting, still can't explain
E F#
How the love we feel we carry inside
B
Can be passed
E F#
See a brother in the gutter you reach
Abm
Out your hand
C#m F# (at 2nd)
Ask how are you getting on, alone?
Solo: still working on this part i think it starts like:
e--4-4-8------------|
B---------5-------6-|
G------------6h8----|
D-------------------|
A-------------------|
E-------------------|
(End with intro)
B
What gauge measures miracles?
C#m
And whose heart beats electrical?
E F# B
We feign sickness, with all modern joy
B
But even western medicine
C#m
It couldn't save Danny Callahan
E F# B
Bad bone marrow, a bald little boy
E F#
But the love he feels he carries inside
B
Can be passed
E F#
He lay still, his mother kissed him goodbye
Abm
Said "come back!"
C#m F#
Where are you going to, alone?
C#m F#
Where are you going, all alone?
