JACKSON BROWNE: CALL IT A LOAN
[Verse]
G C G
In the morning when I closed my eyes
Em D G
you were sleeping in paradise.
G C G
And while the room was growing light
Em D G
I was holding still with all my might.
[Chorus]
C D G C Am7 D G
Oh, oh, what if it's true, aah, what my heart says?
C D G C
Oh, oh, what'll I do?
G C D
What if this feeling becomes hard to part with?
[Verse]
G C G
You were meant to play your part
Em D G
In the design of a desperate heart.
G C G
And while you gave your love to me
Em D G
I was betting I was getting it free.
[Chorus]
C D G C Am7 D G
Oh, oh, if I'd only know, aah, what your heart costs.
C D G C
Oh, oh, can we call it a loan,
G C D
And a debt that I owe on a bet that I lost?
[Verse]
G C G
In the evening when you see my eyes
Em D G
Looking back at you, no disguise.
G C G
I'm not sure who you think you'll see,
Em D G
I'm just hoping you still know that it's me.
[Chorus]
C D G C Am7 D G
Oh, oh, what if it's true, aah, better ask the man inside?
C D G C
Oh, oh, there seem to be two;
G C D G
One steals the love, and the other one hides.
G C G
Yeah, can we call it a loan
Em D G
till I'm paid in full for the seeds I've sown?
G C G
Yeah, can we say that I've grown
Em D G
in some ways that we may have yet to be shown?
C D G C Am7 D G
Oh, oh, if I'd only know, aah, what your heart costs.
C D G C
Oh, oh, can we call it a loan,
G C D G
And a debt that I owe on a bet that I lost?

Good tab of a beautiful song! This is an old tune off of a great album, one of Jackson Browne's best. I'm wondering how long this tab has been up. It deserves a thank you, and that's mine.
This song, (AFAIK), has the guitar tuned dowm to Eb-eb, which makes the key F#. (Although,(obviously),the chord shapes remain the same as you've posted them.
For some extra fun with this tune, get a 2nd guitar, (and player, of course), On a standard tuned guitar, you're going to put a capo on the 6th fret, then play the finger picked part in "cowboy C", (using the 1st fret & open chords C, F, G, & Em. After applying the capo, G will be C,C becomes F, & D become G, Am becomes Em, and that's all there is to it. You can goof around with this 2nd guitar part along with the record,if you can't find another player. And thanks again for a great tab of a classic song.
