Album: Kentucky
Song: The Rambler
 
Tabbed by: guitarwizard93(makutoid)
 
Tuning: Standard
Capo: 9th Fret
 
I may have labelled a few chords incorrectly due to a lot of guess work, so these are what certain "unusual"
chords are as I've worked them out, apologies if they're completely wrong!
 
C6/9  - x30210
Am7/G - 302010
C/B   - x20010
 
Throughout the intro/verse and wherever else appropriate there is a riff of sorts played into the chord
progression of C and C6/9. The riff is simply hammering on the second fret to form the chord, and is as such:
 
   C                   C6/9         C
e|-0---------0---0-0-|-0----------0--------0-----0-|
B|-1---------1---1-1-|-1----------1--------1-----1-|
G|-0---------0---0-0-|-0-h-2--0---0--------0---0---|
D|-0-h-2-----2---2-2-|-0----------0-h-2----2---2---|
A|-3---------3---3-3-|-3----------3--------3---3---|
E|-------------------|-----------------------------|
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
C                     C6/9       C
    You were born in a southern fall,
C                                 C6/9       C
    It might've been Sunday but I can't recall
C                       C6/9        C
    All the birthdays I must have missed
Am                          C[Fill 1]  Fm
    Your first steps and your first kiss
C                            C6/9      C
    I don't even know if you know my name
                    Am             G[bass]         C[Fill 1}   Fm
    But you should hear the truth before it's too late
 
 
[Chorus 1]
 
                    C                     G
    So I hope this finds you, on some highway
F                          C      F                  C
    Cause I'm a long time rambler, I call the road my home
F                    C                 G
    Forgive my indiscretion, it's the only way I know
F                            C                Am     G     C     Fm
    A million miles from Kentucky, but I will always be around
                 C                  C6/9          C
    So turn the radio up when your heart breaks down
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
          C                        C6/9         C
    I've played for tips and I've played for less
                C                          C6/9         C
    I played a pretty southern girl right out of her dress
        C                 C6/9          C
    She danced until the lights came on
                   Am                           G       C[Fill 1]   Fm
    But there's a reason she's here instead of being at home
                   C                       C6/9         C
    She said "the songs you sing make the whole room cry"
             Am             G           C[Fill 1]   Fm
    And that night I told a young man's lie
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
                         C                         G
    When I said I would call her, and I said I'll write
F                          C      F                  C
    Cause I'm a long time rambler, I call the road my home
F                    C                 G
    Forgive my indiscretion, it's the only way I know
F                            C                Am     G     C     Fm
    A million miles from Kentucky, but I will always be around
                 C                  C6/9          C
    So turn the radio up when your heart breaks down
              C                  C6/9           C       C/B
    Turn the radio up when your heart breaks down
 
 
[Bridge]
 
Am                    Am/G              Dsus
    I'm sorry for the tears I made you cry
 
    I'm sorry for the promises that turned to lies
Am                  Am/G               Dsus
    If I could turn back the hands of time
 
    I'd take it back and try, try, try
       Am                         Dsus               C    C6/9  C
    To make you understand, that this is who I am
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
C                         C6/9     C
    I met the devil in an old motel
C                                  C6/9       C
    It seems I ain't got much of a soul to sell
C                          C6/9       C
    My glass is empty, my hands are blue
         Am               G         C[Fill 1]  Fm
    And the doctor gave me 'bout a month or two
            C                         C6/9        C
    Well I thought I would make it to you this year
           Am               G       C[Fill 1]  Fm
    So forgive me one last time my dear
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
                  C                          G
    And tell your mother, I won't be coming home
F                          C      F                  C
    Cause I'm a long time rambler, I call the road my home
F                    C                 G
    Forgive my indiscretion, it's the only way I know
F                            C                Am     G     C     Fm
    A million miles from Kentucky, but I will always be around
                 C                  C6/9          C
    So turn the radio up when your heart breaks down
              C                  C6/9           C
    Turn the radio up when your heart breaks down
