[Intro]
E, F#m, E, F#m (Hold)
 
[Verse One]
                  E    F#m                     E       F#m
I left you on the Debris, at the Sunday morning market.
                                 E        F#m                     E       F#m
You were sorting through the odds and ends, you was looking for a bargain.
 
[Verse Two]
                              E         F#m                     E        F#m
I heard your footsteps at the front door, And that old familiar love song.
                             E           F#m                  E       F#m
Cause you knew you'd find me waiting there, at the top of the stairs.
 
[Chorus]
C#m            G#m    G#m G F#m
I went there and back, 
                       E
just to see how far it was.
   C#m               G#m      G#m G F#m
And you, you tried to tell me,
                         E      F#m
But I had to learn for myself.
 
[Verse Three]
                           E    F#m                       E      F#m
Theres more trouble at the depot, with the general workers union
                             E              F#m
And you said, "They'll never change a thing.
                                     E         F#m
Well, they won't fight and their not working."

[Chorus]
C#m           G#m    G#m G F#m
Oh, you was my hero,
                    E
How you are my good friend.
C#m                G#m    G#m G F#m
I've been there and back,
                      E     F#m
And I know how far it is.
 
[Verse Four]
                      E    F#m                            E      F#m
But I left you on the Debris, now we both know you got no money.
                      E              F#m                  E      F#m
And I wonder what you would have done, without me hanging around.

This is the best version , correct chords and sounds great when played.

Hi. Looking at the live BBC version it sounds like the basic verse chords are G to Am7. Probably open tuned as the man said with a capo. Love this song

This tabbed version is fine for standard tuning, albeit in G (capo at the third fret). The chord progression is OK, but to be at the same pitch as the live version on Youtube it should be in F (capo first fret). On that live version Ronnie is in open D tuning with the capo at the 3rd fret, so playing in F. It's relative simple to play and the open D gives it a great airy sound. Chords are F (so all open with a hammer on at the 4th and 5th stings at fret 2 to get the groove), G minor (E6 shape will give you this in open D), Chorus chords are Dm (slide the E6 shape up to 8th fret relative to the capo for this) then Am (same E6 shape at 3rd fret relative to capo) and then back to Gm (E6 shape). Fretted strings for E6 shape are: (5th string 2nd fret, 4th string 2nd fret, 3rd string 1st fret).
